<p>Ok I've been really stressed lately trying to figure out if I will get accepted into my dream school, UCF.</p>
<p>GPA: 2.9 unweighted
3.3 weighted</p>
<p>SAT SCORES: hope to get a 1700 or higher</p>
<p>ACT: 24 still taking two more</p>
<p>Took all honors, never regular
Took ONe AP every year, this year I'm taking two</p>
<p>ECs: 160 service hours at hospital, still getting more, in newspaper, environmental and animal rights clubs</p>
<p>Currently manager at a boutique, work four days a week</p>
<p>Low income
First generation
Hispanic background
Applying for summer</p>
<p>Plan on writing my essay about how my both my parents left me (dad at 2, mom at 12) and how that never stopped me from pushing myself</p>
<p>If you need anymore information let me know!!! Please let me know what you think, do I have a chance or should I just kill my dreams now?</p>
<p>Bump bump bump :((</p>
<p>Please, do not kill your dreams. If you get 1700+ SAT or 26+ACT you should be fine, i think you have a very unique story, not many persons can make it without parents, specially at such young age. Respect. Best of luck to you.
I’d really appreciate if you could give me some advice:

<p>Thank you so much! I really do hope I get in, it’s the only school I want to attend.</p>
<p>And your stats are incredible! Your a huge competitor for any of those schools, best of luck to you :)</p>

<p>Low match since you have no parents left anymore…</p>
<p>How does that have to do with me getting in?</p>
