I know this is elaborate but I wanted to give as much necessary information as possible,

Act looks great, Rigor looks great, GPA just below the middle 50% (4.3-4.6), EC’s look great, leadership looks great, community service hours look light but with all the stuff you have going on can’t possibly have more than what you have for Community service hours… everything looks good to my eyes. the only 2 things that stand out would be class rank and UF GPA… I think the UF GPA is still good, but you must have a ton of smart kids in your school. they really compare you to the kids in your school. how many kids do they usually take from your school? like in the class of 2019? that is a good gauge… if they are only accepting 40-50 kids then it might be a stretch… I think everyone with your resume should get into UF… you did what you had to do to stand out… UF is a beast to get in though :frowning:

At my school there really isn’t a trend. I know of people that have gotten into schools like Georgetown but were rejected by UF so who knows.

Do you have an idea of how many kids get in? I’m assuming a lot… which county is the school in? typically Date, Broward Palm Beach and I forget the other county . they get a ton of kids into UF

I still think your resume is awesome… couldn’t have done much more to stand out…

Just from what I know off the top of my head, my stats are a bit lower than what most kids from my school have that go there, but the large majority come from families that are college educated and well off (their parents are very invested in their academics whereas mine (single parent) is not). I’m in Palm Beach County SD which I know is huge.

good luck in the process… Palm Beach along with Dade and Broward have a higher percentage of kids getting into UF… there are several other counties as well that get a lot of kids in… crossing fingers for you as I know it will be a long 4-5 months. you have a great resume!

Thank you!
