Haha, another "chances" thread

<p>I hate to do this to you guys, but I was just curious of your opinions on my possibilities down at UF. I am an out of state applicant (Iowa) and applied for regular decision. </p>

<p>I have a 3.65 unweighted GPA (we have barely any AP courses at my school, and this was my first year taking an AP (Biology)) </p>

<p>I have a 32 ACT, 11 essay.</p>

<p>I have taken a few dual enrollment classes (Stats, Business) but these are not weighted at my school, and we do not use a weighted system. </p>

<p>My essay/recommendations are good. (I don't want to get overconfident with them) </p>

<p>I have lettered in Golf and play tennis. Spanish club member, reading mentor with young kids, etc. Work 20+ hours a week. </p>

<p>What do you all think?</p>

<p>you're fine. although the fact that your prob 100% american bred white guy, the fact that you're from iowa helps a lil (compared to someone from another state). </p>

<p>i would've said apply ED but i guess thats too late. you got a nice ACT and your gpa is fine. good luck, ive been in the waiting for ED for a bit now. 2 months to go</p>

<p>Haha, you're exactly right. I am that American white guy, but maybe because I'm from Iowa I'll be an URM? Just kidding. Now I kind of wish that I would have done the ED, but I guess I wanted to leave my options open. These next FOUR months for me are going to be a biatch! I wish that there was some other way to figure out sooner! Early February just seems way too far away.</p>

<p>You have an excellent chance of admission. UF uses weighted GPA's (their own weighting of 1/2 point extra for honors classes and 1 point extra for AP). Your weighted GPA is probably close to a 3.9/4.0. You may even qualify for the honors program. BTW, the regular decision 1 letters are usually posted online on the last Friday in January (after 5 PM).</p>

<p>I think your in!</p>

<p>Thanks for all of the replies! Does anyone else have their opinion to share?</p>
