<p>You have a chance, but not a good one with your present SAT scores–you need to bump them up. Study for the tests this summer and take both ACT and SAT again. Your chances for USF admission are about the same as sliding into home–odds are you’ll be tagged out but you might slip in safe. USF has club hockey; to be a walk-on on the baseball team you have to be really good like first team all-state caliber and if you are serious about engineering you probably wouldn’t have time for baseball team that has a really long season with a lot of travel.</p>
<p>Too, if you do any admission essays (USF doesn’t require one) make sure you get college name right.</p>
<p>The grid in post #3 is for last year, and each year the lowest scores for any GPA have slowly been going up. Retake the SAT and aim for at least 500 in each section. USF does use the writing scores, but not on the grid. That may finally change for 2010-2011. And remember that the grid is for in-state. You need even higher numbers for out of state. </p>
<p>How many classes were honors? AP? How many AP science or math will you be taking senior year? If no AP, consider taking 1-2 SAT II tests to show how you compare to other students in those areas. Are you at a real competitive private school?</p>
