<p>My school doesn't offer APs, though I am self-studying
English and Literature and plan to take it the next time
the test is offered. I had a hard time in Algebra 2, and
ended up having to retake it in the summer (and all that
that implies). My cumulative average is an 89, and I am
taking the hardest courseload available at my school. I
am also taking classes at the community college this
summer and all day except for two or three periods next
year (I have either fulfilled requirements or am taking
comparable courses at the cc) </p>

<p>I'd be surprised if you weren't admitted - Delaware is competitive but your scores put you up in their range and though your rank is a bit low and GPA too - you have a small class size which will be taken into consideration. Your courses are tough too.</p>

<p>Where does UD fall on your list?</p>

3

<p>It's at the very top.</p>

<p>Looks pretty good -- I suggest you just submit the ACT and not worry about submitting the SAT. GPA is a little below avg. for UD, but the ACT is well above the 75% range. A solid essay and good recs (Delaware only requires one but "encourages" more, so I would get at least 2) should put you over the top.</p>
