<p>I'd say you should try to bring up that average. They like to see a trend towards improvement. Does the 140 include a writing section or just Math and Critical Reading? You should aim for at least 1800/2400 (or 1200/1600) on your SAT.</p>
<p>yeah the PSAT score includes writing.</p>
<p>2.7 GPA won't get you into UConn and your PSAT score is 140 which is 1400/2400 on the actual SAT which is not good either.</p>
<p>It might help that you are in state but you definately need to push and make junior year VERY good or you will be looking at some low-end schools in the fall.</p>
<p>work harder!!</p>
<p>Does anyone know the probability of admission after being deferred? as in %</p>
<p>No chance... go to a cc for a year, pull high marks, and then apply.</p>
<p>To husky.hopeful.... Years ago, a buddy of mine after getting deferred kept calling the admissions office every day to find out if he got accepted... They ended up knowing him very well over a months time... knew him so well that they ended up accepting him. Persistence in his case helped.</p>
