<p>Hi, I am looking to get some kind of idea on where I stand with my Transfer Admission to UCF. I applied for Spring 2011, which leaves me enough time to have completed all 60 credits and have my AA.</p>

<p>I am currently a sophomore going to Broward College (formerly Broward Community College), my GPA is 3.22. I have 35 credits already completed, and after this semester will have 44 completed. This leaves me with 6 classes and 1 lab left to complete my AA.</p>

<p>My worry is that I had to retake two courses because I got D’s in them, however I retook them last semester and got an A in one and a B in the other. I just dont know how that looks to UCF. Also, I got another D last semester in a math course that I plan to retake over the summer. (I suck at math haha) but yeah this is what worries me. I know my GPA isn’t too high, but it’s not that low either.</p>

<p>idk if this helps but here are my stats from high school
ACT 24
SAT 1090
UW GPA 3.9
W GPA 4.2</p>

<p>Also, my brother is in his freshman yea at UCF right now. Does this help my chances at all? And if so, how would they know?</p>

<p>Thanks guys!</p>
