Chances at Penn State, UofMichigan, NC State, and Syracuse?

<p>So to begin, I have a terrible GPA for getting into UNC which is at 3.3 with a 27 on the ACT without studying, but am doing intensive studying for the SAT and ACT that I'm taking soon. I would have had probably from 3.6 to 3.8 for a GPA but in my sophomore year I got a bad case of mono 2 weeks before semester tests and took them while pretty much sleeping, later that year my grandfather died of cancer and my GPA tanked, and not long after that, a close friend got diagnosed with leukemia and mid way through my junior year, he died as well. Now, as a senior my grades are all A's, and as a Junior the second semester my grades were all A's besides one B. (All honors and 8 AP's) Anyways here are my EC's:</p>

<p>I test on the SAT as well as retaking the ACT, at the moment im confident ill get a 1950+ SAT and 33+ ACT due to recent scores on practice tests.</p>

<p>U need to be more realistic…</p>

<p>Ok then, anyone else? and this isn’t for UNC It’s for NC state, Syracuse, Penn state, and Umich. Wrote it at 2 am and wrote UNC lol.</p>

<p>Bumpity Bump.</p>

<p>Explain what happened in your essays, and if you actually get a 33+ on the ACT, you’re basically in to any of these universities.</p>

<p>On the ACT I got a 9 for the essay and have yet to take the SAT, have only done about 2 practice sat’s and 3 practice ACT’s.</p>
