<p>You’re almost definitely not going to get in pre-admit because of your test scores. Also it’s impossible for us to know what your GPA actually is so realistically it’s pretty impossible to know your chances of getting into the university. If you do get in anyone that sets their mind to it and really works hard can pretty much get into Ross but it does take focus on the right classes.</p>

3

<p>No for Ross.
Maybe/probably for LSA.</p>

4

<p>Almost certain rejection from Ross pre-admit, and you’re a low match for LSA depending on your unweighted GPA because that’s all admissions cares about.</p>

5

<p>Ross accepted no one from IA Central (best high school in michigan) this year with anything less than a 34 on their ACT, so I would say pre-admit is a nogo for you</p>

6

<p>Ross is extremely selective…a reach for any applicant.</p>

7

<p>bump* also how about if i went for economics in the arts and science program</p>

8

<p>Just go for Ross after your freshman year if you don’t get in. If you’re motivated you’ll make it.</p>

9

<p>bump 10 char</p>

<p>Agree with entenduintransit</p>

<p>No chance for Ross and pretty good chance for LSA. You have poor test scores, but LSA may be willing to overlook that for strong extracurriculars. If you get good grades and are involved in extracurriculars in LSA, you would have a very good chance of being admitted to Ross. Like KyleTwentyEleven said, it’s not hard to do it you put in your time freshman year.</p>

<p>Don’t bother with LSA econ (unless you’re interested in an academic career in econ). The career opportunities for undergrads aren’t very good. Only a handful of LSA econ students transfer into the Master of Accounting class (I think my MAcc class this year had less than 5 LSA alumni).</p>
