<p>Try calculating your GPA using this: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-michigan-ann-arbor/568562-umich-gpa.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-michigan-ann-arbor/568562-umich-gpa.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>If your GPA is close to the avg. range (3.8-4.0) I would say you are a good candidate for admission, though your SAT is just a bit out of range.</p>

<p>Reach. Try retaking SAT</p>

<p>haha.. I was seeing whether that score was reach.
I will reply my real score.
CR : 610
MA : 770
WR : 630 (11) 2010</p>

<p>SAT2 : Math2c 800 Chem 750 World 640
AP: PSYC,MAC,WH 5 MIC 4</p>

<p>THANK YOU!!!</p>

<p>are u in state</p>

<p>Tidsha, Michigan does not count Freshman year. What was your GPA without Freshman year and without Senior year (I assume your Senior year grades aren't out yet)?</p>

<p>Michigan does not place much value on SAT II scores.</p>

<p>Your SAT is roughly around Michigan's average. </p>

<p>I would say Michigan is a match if you are in-state and slightly reach if you are out of state, but we need to know more about your GPA (unweighed, including just Sophomore and Junior years) and school curriculum (AP classes, AP results etc...)</p>

<p>I would try to get at least a 600 on each section. The 750 in math will likely help you a lot but still a 600 on reading should make your chances a lot better.</p>

<p>your grammar worries me a lil bit regarding the essays</p>
