Deloitte & Touche 4 week summer internship (biggest accounting firm in the nation, going to ask for a recommendation letter from them)</p>

<p>be brutally honest, what are my chances?</p>

<p>You have some weak parts (community service, UW) and then some stronger points (SATs, weighted GPA, summer internship) but the best advice I can give you is do a lot of community service every chance you get, keep your grades up your senior year, and APPPPPPPPLYYYYYYYY EARRRRRRRLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYY.</p>

<p>Good luck = )</p>

<p>Search the FSU forum for thread or posts that list a link to a page that explains how to calculate your FSU weighted GPA, as they only count your English, Math, History/Social Studies, Science and Language classes (ie the core classes required for graduation), and do not count things like PE, Health, Art (not even AP Art), business electives or other electives. You need to know your FSU weighted GPA. You get .5 weight for honors/DE/preIB and 1.0 weight for AP/IB.</p>
