Hi all,
Although my chances of getting into University of Washington appear statistically high based on data collected from my own high school’s applicants, I can’t help but feel very anxious for this upcoming March because UW is by far by #1 choice school. I am worried about my unweighted GPA as UW’s 50% range is an intimidating 3.75-3.95, and I’ve also gotten a total of 4 C’s between AB Calc, Adv. Precalc, and PIB Latin 3. Hopefully, my rigorous schedule will make up for these weaknesses in my application. How confident should I feel about my chances? Thx for reading!
Unweighted GPA: 3.51
Weighted GPA: 4.19
Academic Rigor: 8 AP/IB courses between 11th and 12th grade, nearly all PIB classes between 9th and 10th grade).
SAT: 1350, 720 math, 630 reading/writing (This superscore may go up depending on my results of the December SAT).
Extracurriculars:
