<p>I am applying to LSA, and am hopefully retaking the ACT in September if I get a stand by position.</p>

<p>Ehh, I’m thinking your honors/AP classes are kinda nubbish. Do you go to a small school where only 4 AP/3 honors classes are offered (because then it’s fine), or did you just choose not to take the APs and honor courses? Your GPA is fine, but you’re only top 25% with a 3.85? Ouch. 28 ACT is okay, but it’s kinda pushing it.</p>

<p>Uhhhhh I’m gonna say low reach. Apply early and good luck!</p>

<p>There are lots of AP courses and such that are only available to kids in a special program at our school that you can only get into freshmen year.
I could have taken another AP last year but didn’t realize that it was available to juniors, dropped the ball on that one. </p>

<p>I am definitely applying early and hopefully going to retake the ACT and get a higher score.
Thanks</p>

<p>Well a UM GPA of 3.85 is great, but your rigious course load may be on the low side ( not sure how they will take it, depends on what/ how courses offered at your school). Being in top 25% percent with such a high UM GPA may indicate much competition at your school attending UM ( such as top 10 or even 5 percent). Though I’m not even sure how large your school is etc…
I would say you have a average to slight below average chance.</p>

<p>There are about 500 students in my grade. I will find out my rank exactly when school starts.
Thanks</p>

<p>I think you have a pretty good shot. They don’t need everybody to load up on tons of APs. You have a few APs, and have showed that you can utilize your time.</p>

<p>Thank you, that is good to hear</p>

<p>you’re in state, so i think you’re in. and the APs are fine, don’t sweat it.</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>
