Finally decided to make a thread - My chances! In-State!

<p>I've been posting in other threads, and have gotten responses there. But I decided I wanted to have a thread dedicated to my chances, rather than search for a bunch of posts. Anyways, here are my credentials, comment on them if you will, PLEASE!</p>

<p>Georgia? Did you mean to post this here?</p>

<p>Oh geez! Actually, I posted this in numerous threads, and just copied and pasted! OMG! It's going to say that for all my schools!</p>

<p>I think you have a pretty good chance especially if you are a Georgia resident.</p>

<p>hahahaha...</p>

<p>If you were an in-stater I would say you're a shoe-in, otherwise I think you have a pretty good chance.</p>

<p>OMG I feel so stupid! I can't get into Michigan with comments like that!</p>

<p>lol, calm down A2, its Okay</p>

<p>im having trouble with all of your posts. I have seen unweighted GPA's of 3.63, 3.53, and 3.3... What is your real GPA?</p>

<p>LOL, let me clear myself.</p>

<p>My GPA at my school, weighted, all classes, is a 3.63
My GPA at my school, only academics, un-weighted, is a 3.53
My "Michigan" GPA (take out freshman year, only academics, no +/-, no grade boost) Is a 3.3.</p>

<p>yeah, a 3.3 is very low, so I'd say UM is a reach.</p>

<p>what the **** is up with Georgia?</p>

<p>Georgia is another school I applied to, and I copied the message, and didn't edit it at the start... so I had to change the starting message, but I didn't do it quick enough, and I didn't want to go through the entire process.</p>

<p>Are you on speed or acid? Calm down man.</p>

<p>No, i'm just suffering from College Admission Anxiety disorder.</p>

<p>My best advice to you is to apply early. Not because it may increase your chances (although that's also good advice) because hopefully you'll get an early acceptance and you anxiety level will drop.</p>

<p>Kines has been a "hotter" school lately, but I still think you're a good candidate. Your Michigan GPA isn't the greatest, but your school will be taken into account.</p>

<p>Chill out man lol, its not worth the hype ur putting urself in. RELAX.</p>

<p>I heard that Kines was actually the easiest of the UM schools to get into. Is that true? BTW - on applying early, i'm done with my application.</p>
