<p>what’s yo GPA?</p>

<p>Our school doesn’t give GPA or Rank due to the fact that the classes are hard as hell. However, if I rank A to be 4, B - 3, etc, I have a 3.85, unweighted is like 4.6 or higher. Rank is in top 10 students.</p>

<p>In at UMiami – possible full scholarship depending on rank. I don’t know how this works since you say your school doesn’t rank. Socially, UM is very very different than the other schools on your list</p>

<p>bump! anyone else?</p>

<p>looks like you’re a shoe in for anywhere you set your mind to…
geez I wish I had your stats…</p>

<p>Hey OSSM POSSUM!</p>

<p>Your stats look quite solid! Very advanced courses and a plethora of activities.</p>

<p>However, your activities seem very very varied, and you should prioritize those that are important to you and will mean something to the adcoms (you’ll have to weed out some that are just participation or the school’s accomplishments). You can do that because you will still have some good achievements (academic team - congrats, what team were you?, RESEARCH! - that’s a nice research resume you have there, and your service awards, your published stuff) to put on your app that will shine through more if they’re not surrounded/covered by bloated (lesser) activities like tissue paper in a bra.</p>

<p>Highlight what’s important!</p>

<p>Best of luck next year.</p>

<p>haha, thanks. Bumpity bump!</p>

<p>anyone else? what do you think?</p>

<p>I think that you have a SUPER chance at the big wigs
PERSONALLY, I would submit your ACT over your SAT, because a 35 ACT score translates to over a 2300 in the SAT, so that’s really good
you also have really good EC’s and research is super important
your only downfall that I see is your GPA, which, even though your school doesnt give class rank, the colleges will inevitablly look at.
however, other than that, your credentials look bueno.</p>

<p><3 ya.</p>

<p>thanks for the help, anyone else? BUMP</p>
