Chances at UM

<p>I'm an imcoming high school junior, so most of you will immediately dismiss this thread, but please do me a favor and read on. I would cut off my legs to go to U of M, and need some opinions as to my chances. (I'm not uptight and nervous about it like some other kids my age on this site, but I really would like to know where I stand and what I need to do to get accepted.)</p>

<p>9th grade: 3.84 uw/4.0+ w
10th grade: 3.81 uw/4.0+ w
11th grade: to be determined</p>

<ul>
<li>I'm one ap short of the hardest possible schedule for my junior year, (I'm taking ap english, ap latin, honors calc/trig) and I plan on taking a similarly challenging senior schedule. I'm a member of student council, baseball team, golf team, mock trial team, french club, and a moderator of freshman orientation. Also my grandfather was salutatorian of the '35 law class at UM, my father was a '76 grad, and my brother is entering his senior year at UM. Obviously I have yet to take the sats, but my psats were around 610 math, 620 verbal, and 700 writing- I understand that's low but I've taken/am taking lots of sat prep courses and I admit that I totally blew off the psats (big regret). Any information that doesn't include telling me to wait another year to post would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance.</li>

<p>*edit: A few things I forgot- I am out of state unfortunately, but my high school is one of the best in the state of Pennsylvania and consistantly lands high ivy acceptances, along with other great schools like NYU, Georgetown, BC, etc.</p>

<p>Come back in a year.</p>

<p>Junior year is the most important one, so focus on doing well. What your family did at the university isn't important, you still get max points for legacy. Activities look pretty good. Focus on keeping your GPA at least where it is, and make sure you rock the SAT or ACT.</p>
