Hey!
So this is my first post, and I wanted to see what everyone thought about my college chance at UNC would be.
My unweighted GPA: 3.313
Weighted: 3.813 (Sadly, both are not great. However, I have taken multiple Post AP, AP, and Honor classes) I challenge myself, but have compromised my GPA in the process…
ACT: 30 Superscore
New SAT: Critical Reading: 670 Math: 670
Out-of-state *Terrible for admissions, but still hopeful
Extracurricular: Varsity Cross Country, Varsity Swimming, Treasurer in National English Honor Society, Member of National Technical Honor Society, Lifeguard - White Water, Menchie’s Team member, Academic Journal Board Editor, Helping Hands (Volunteering events - pet adoptions, sandwich making, etc.)
AP Courses: Human Geography (9), Physics I (10), Psychology (10), World History (10), English Language (11), Biology (11), U.S. History (11), Calculus AB (11), Calculus BC (11)
Post AP Courses: DNA Genetics (11)
Honors: Foundations (9), Advanced Algebra (9), Literature Composition (9), Analytic Geometry (9), British Literature (10), Spanish III (10)
Magnet: Chemistry (9), Biology (9), Biochemistry (10)
Accelerated: Pre-Calculus (10)
In my senior year, I plan on taking Multivariable Calculus, AP Environmental Science, AP Gov, AP Econ, Adv. Research and Internship (Two separate classes: Hopeful intern with Oncologist at Kaiser Permanente), and AP Lit
Graduating with the Magnet Seal in 2017
Do you think my chances are fair? I know that my GPA is low, and out of state is tricky with UNC…
Also, should I wait for regular admission or go for early admission?? (my listed GPA is from Junior year - Fall semester. My spring semester will boost my GPA slightly because I recieved 3 A’s and one B in weighted classes)
I know they do not consider your major in application, which is good because I want to do something with molecular biology and genetics.
Besides this school, any other recommendations? I also like UGA so…
Thanks!!!
