Chances - University at Buffalo

<p>Hey whats up guys, im new here, Lotek21 saying hi to you all.</p>

<p>Well, basically im looking for answers and where else but a site called "college confidential" right...ok enough talking here's some scores: I have a 2.6 gpa, i slacked off quite a bit before senior year. now the outlook for my 1st quarter is that i have all A's, 2 AP classes. i working my tail off bc i know colleges look at course outlook and 1st quarter grades of senior year. And my SAT scores are sitting around 1100, but studying 2-3 hours a day 6 days a week and going to retake it in Nov, and its end of sept now basically. I have almost 90 hours of community service logged also.</p>

<p>So the question is, my chances looking good? i know they're mean score (40%) for SAT last year was 1200.</p>

<p>And does UB accept ACT scores, because i heard from some people they do and some say they dont, clear answer plz?</p>

You’re looking ok, you’re a little below average but I’ve heard of ppl from my school getting in with lower GPA’s.
They take the ACT.</p>
