<p>Good essay...I hope</p>
<p>I’d day you’re 80% in. Though, as a student at University of Maryland, I know that they will be freezing a certain number of spots since they admitted way too many students for Fall 2007. The housing situations are not pretty, and I do not think they want to have anymore of a housing shortage.</p>
<p>However,
You have a solid GPA as well as test scores. </p>
<p>Looking at your stats, you remind me of myself when I applied, though my GPA was a BIT higher and scores were a bit lower. </p>
<p>My stats were: 3.75 GPA UW, 4.18 W GPA, 28 ACT/1240 SATs, numerous community service clubs, jewish forum(like JSU), took same APS minus USH and Enviro, and a member of NHS. </p>
<p>I’m an out of state student from South Florida. Best of luck man! </p>
<p>By the way, what is your major? Since you’re an Illinois resident, you should definitely apply to UIllinois and maybe even UChiTown(even though it’s private).</p>
<p>I was just deferred from U of I, and I feel so sick. I really wasn’t expecting it. Technically for them I had a 27 on the ACT though, since they only take your composite. Maryland says they average all of your best subscores. U of I was probably my first choice, and I didn’t think it was any harder tha Maryland.</p>
<p>I applied undecided for maryland
communications for U of I</p>
