<p>I am applying as an international student and I just submitted my application. I am wondering what my chances are at making it to the school of engineering... </p>

<p>2080 SAT... 700 Math, 630 CR, 750 Writing
710 SAT Math IIC
630 SAT Physics (ran out of time...)</p>

<p>4.3 weighted GPA</p>

<p>senior year schedule - AP Physics, AP Chem, AP Calc, engineering science, hon english, photo 2 </p>

<p>I would say my course load is very rigorous as I have already taken 4 AP exams before this year and scored 4s (Government, World, Bio, Lang)</p>

<p>ECs are just OKAY... not too great</p>

<p>Michigan: Match</p>

3

<p>I'd say Michigan is a match/reach depending on how Michigan recalculates your GPA.</p>

4

<p>thanks guys... ill look at how they recalculate my gpa... around what UM gpa should I have?</p>

5

<p>Well, considering the fact that your SAT is a little lower than the Michigan mean, I would say a 3.8+ GPA is in order. But it really depends on what Michigan expects from your school.</p>

6

<p>I have a 3.6 as of the end of junior year....</p>

7

<p>and a few ppl in my school have gotten in recently with unweighted gpas lower than that</p>

8

<p>recalculate it w/o frosh grades and dropping the +s and -s and a=4, b=3, etc. to get your UMich GPA.</p>

9

<p>With a 3.6 UM GPA / 2080 SAT and international applicant I'd say Michigan is a slight reach...</p>
