<p>Okay I know that admissions decisons are coming out in like 4 days, but...what do you think? I was deferred ED, but I have improved my application a little bit...</p>

<p>First of all, I qualifed for level 2 of the Michigan Math Prize competition, something only 3 people from my school ever have qualified for before. I also was student of the month and recieved recognition from my senator and improved my SAT II Math 2C from 640 to 740. Here are the rest of my stats...</p>

<p>29 ACT;
1910 SAT (620R/670M/620W)
4.16 GPA;
rank 4 or 5/267;
SAT IIs: 740IIC, 620USHist; 600Lit;</p>

<p>I had really good essays and great recommendations, one from a Cornell alum. I also have tons of ec's, many leadership positions like 2 varsity captains, girls' state, etc. In my school I have taken 9/10 APs(I didn't take spanish b/c I was a Frenchie!!) but I am taking an AP indepentent study right now. I took a class at U Mich last semester also. I applied to CAS undecided. Thanks!!</p>

<p>chances don't look too hot.</p>

<p>Everything is great except that SAT1 score . . . the math prizes are good, but why only the 670 on the math section?</p>

<p>I know that my test scores are low...but the thing is that I did get deferred, not rejected. I did only have a 670 on the SAT I, but I did get a 31 on the ACT. (I also took the SAT before I knew a lot of math)</p>

<p>Just stay away from this site for a few days until you know your decision. Anything anyone says is likely to either give you hope, which may be false hope, or criticism. I think you have a shot and hope you get in :) Best of luck</p>
