<p>I know you see tons of these daily, but please help me out! And if anyone is wondering, this is the younger brother of the account holder, and he's letting me use his.</p>

<p>OK, my stats:
-IB student with 3.81 UW GPA
-26 ACT
-Strong essay (according to my English teacher, brother, father, and friends)
-Strong recommendation
-Prez of Spanish club, VP of Gay-Straight alliance, treasurer of drama club, member of NHS, and of Spanish NHS. I have been in all of the above for three years, except for NHS and SPNHS (2 years)
-OOS
What are my chances? Thank you to all who answer!

<p>Good chance.</p>

<p>Well, a 26 ACT is near the 25th percentile of admitted students.</p>

4

<p>How did you convert your IB score (1-7) to GPA?</p>

5

<p>Shoot - I meant to say bottom 25th percentile (i.e. low end).</p>

6

<p>I didn’t convert them. That is my GPA. Madison85, are you saying I have a low chance of getting in?</p>

7

<p>The 26 ACT is on the lower end for UW-Madison. It is a waiting game now. You will hear back by the end of March. Keep your grades up and enjoy your senior year.</p>
