<p>If half your high school friends who did well in High School who are attending UCF are presently on academic probation, then it may be time to get a new group of friends.</p>
<p>Not High School friends-I’m an out of state student, so I initially knew no one here. However, it is very true. Not all, of course, but a vast majority. I also remember reading an article on it, but pretty surprising stats and percentages, but I won’t go into depth unless I can find it again. It has something to do with the fact that, High School is just a completely different playing field then college.</p>
<p>I don’t see why everyone is jumping at WRITE’s throat. They’re just stating personal facts that happen to apply to them. Y’all need to chill.</p>
<p>Everyone is jumping down WRITE’s throat? </p>
<p>Generalizations are what get people into confrontations.</p>
<p>And Internet confrontations are completely useless! I agree with you.</p>
<p>OP, I think you have really solid stats for UCF. Unless something horrible happens, you should be accepted for summer/fall. X) Do you know if you’ve been accepted yet? </p>
<p>I think Write was just trying to reassure the OP and it came out wrong. Most kids who’ve been kicked out of my school for low academics, tend to be straight A students at their home schools, so I can see where she’s going with that. Of course I’m not saying that all straight A students will struggle in college, but some do. It depends on how rigorous their course load was. Oh, and I’m also not saying that I’ll flourish and be amazing or something, lol. Just that hs grades aren’t everything.</p>
<p>Also, level playing field: yes.</p>
