<p>Very small high school (around 200 students). Ranked 2nd in SR class. 3 is max for APs at current HS (here senior year only). Had to change schools three times in last four years due to moving.</p>

<p>Thanks...</p>

<p>Decent shot. Great grades and rank. Good ECs. Just a bit low on the test scores but I think if you have a good essay you really have a good shot!</p>

<p>As an in-state applicant, you are definitely in with those stats. You’re SAT score is average for an in-state applicant, but your application is strengthened by your EC’s and your GPA. It looks like you took advantage of the AP courses offered in your high school and since you took the most you can take, UNC will definitely honor that. So yeah, looks like you’re golden. To be honest, taking the ACT would seem a bit unnecessary with the current Superscored SAT, but if you’re applying to other schools that are a bit harder to get into, I would advise doing so.</p>
