<p>OMG,First of all, I’d like to pay tribute to ur school for using the Physics first methed, which I LOVE! :slight_smile: Your grades are stellar,but you’re EC are lacking. try and get more depth. Do you think you have any “hooks”?
Conclusion: U. Mich will probably take you. :0</p>

<p>@KimberlyLaila‌ what would be considered some strong extracirriculars that I could attain in the next year?</p>

<p>EC options could be student government, model UN, a summer internship, one of these summer programs at a university, a job, or any school clubs available. Those would be good, but I can’t think of any spectacular EC’s that you can get by next year, at least not off the top of my head. I’m not exactly sure what a 94.37 is equivalent to on a 4.0 scale, but I know it’s good. I think it’s a match, but definitely bolster those EC’s.</p>

<p>Chance back

<p>Definitely a match. Great GPA and scores. The GPA is particularly good if no grades are under a 93!
Don’t try to pad your resume with more EC’s; colleges will see right through it.</p>

7

<p>I suggest competive Ec such as Model UN,Debate,Science Bowl,Math Team,etc.(choose two academic ECs) and academic EC Science Team/Bowl,History team/Bowl,Math Team, Classics League,etc(choose two academic Ecs):)</p>

8

<p>Why don’t you just do EC’s that you like? I’ve never done an academic EC, unless you consider Robotics academic hahahaha. Do what you love. If you pile on a bunch of academic ECs, colleges will see right through it…</p>

<p>Low match. I would say you’re in!</p>

<p>First of all, UMich has no early decision but early action. Second, UMich does not superscore. So please provide single sitting score (better with subscores).
Your wGPA at 94.37, but what is your uwGPA? It is hard to convert % to GPA in 4.0 scale without knowing the % score of each class. But a wGPA of 94.37 is not very high and the uwGPA is likely below the admission average of 3.85 after recalculation.
Now the 2 most important questions: Where is your home state and what is your intended major? The answers to these question will affect your chance. It can be match to low reach. </p>

11

<p>@billcsho my major is economics. would this increase or decrease my chances?</p>

12

<p>Econ’s in LSA, and that’s the easiest college to get into.</p>

13

<p>LSA would give you higher chance, but you still did not answer the other questions. Where is your home state? How is your best single sitting SAT with score break down?</p>
