<p>Do you guys think I have a good shot for the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor?
I applied regular decision just now to the College of Literature, Sciences, and the Arts.</p>

<p>SAT: 1840: 700 Math, 630 Writing (11 Essay), 510 CR</p>

<p>ECs: Key Club, International Culture Club, Spanish Club, Orchestra, Mathletes/Senior High Mathletes, Red Cross Club, National Junior/Senior Honor Society, Foreign Language Honor Society, Vice President of my church's youth group.</p>

<p>Good Chances, especially if your GPA translates over 3.7/3.8.</p>

3

<p>Ann Arbor has an avg gpa of 3.8 and avg SAT of 1992 so as long as your in that range your good. I think you have a good chance. GOOD LUCK!!</p>

4

<p>You definitely have a chance! Hospital hours are always appreciated.</p>

5

<p>I honestly can’t relate to that gpa and I use the ACT :stuck_out_tongue: but I know a guy who had a 26 and 3.8 gpa who got in. Also a 24 and 4.0 who got in. I don’t think its particularly selective. Whereas engineering is, I got deferred from the engineering :&lt;/p>

<p>Can anyone else chance me? I’ll definitely chance back if needed.</p>

7

<p>Your SAT score is slightly low but I think you got a good shot.</p>

8

<p>I’m probably going to stick to LAS for economics if I don’t get into Ross by Sophomore year. Do you guys think an economics degree from UMich LAS is respected?</p>

<p>Can anyone else chance me? I’ll chance back.</p>

<p>I think you have a decent shot, not a particularly good one though. GPA is decent, and SAT is a little weak. UM is getting more and more selective since they’ve switched to the CA. Are you a Michigan resident? (I am assuming you are not since you aren’t reporting an ACT score) OOS would make it particularly difficult for you to get in. You’ve got a good chance if you wrote good essays and have good LOR, so keep your hopes up but make sure you have other options available just in case. That’s my opinion.</p>

10

<p>MY LOR are extremely strong and my essays are pretty strong because it shows character and what kind of person I am.</p>

<p>Can anyone else chance me for a chance back?</p>

<p>Bump 10 chars.</p>

<p>I think you have a good chance. Your SAT is a bit low, but your GPA will probably make up for it, assuming you took a fairly rigorous courseload. Colleges LOVE to see upwards trends. Your EC’s are pretty good and if your LOR’s and essays are strong, I’d say you’re in. I don’t know much about the Econ dept at Mich but I know it’s a really good public school (one of the best in the country, Public Ivy) so I would assume it’s pretty prestigious. Good luck!

<p>Bump 10 char.</p>

14

<p>Can anyone chance me for a chance back?</p>

15

<p>It depends. I f you’re in-state, it’d be a match school and a likely admit, if you’re out of state, it’s more like a low reach but very possible, since you have such good community service, work, ECs, etc. . </p>

<p>Chance back?</p>
