<p>chances at University of Florida, out of state</p>

<p>i dont know. you tell me.</p>

<p>...thanks...</p>

<p>no i am serious. i really want to know.</p>

<p>is the 3.8 weighted? if it's a weighted 3.8, with 1280 SAT's, and OOS, I don't think you'll get in. UF doesn't use the writing at all FYI. EC's are decent, but nothing amazing. </p>

<p>Maybe an outside shot, but the GPA and OOS hurt you.</p>

<p>thank you ^^^^</p>

<p>it is weighted...but i had like a 4.1 junior year so hopefully thatll help</p>

<p>might help, you're SAT's are at about the 50% point for the school, their average weighted GPA I believe is like a 4.0 or so, maybe 3.9, so that puts you below their 50%. In state you'd have a chance, but my money would have you on the outside comming from OOS. </p>

<p>But hey, I might be wrong.</p>

<p>ya we'll see...i got into penn state which has similar numbers i think</p>

<p>I'd say in. State schools look for good out of state applicants. The school is big, and you have decent scores. Your flaws are your Ecs/honors. They are low, and don't show much leadership...</p>

<p>anyone know what the acceptance rate is here?</p>

<p>53% according to collegeboard</p>

<p>Dude, don't lie in your subject. But yeah, I think you have a shot. It's worth applying if you want to get in. Coming from OOS your chances are probably going to be below that 53%.</p>

<p>You should post your unweighted GPA though.</p>

<p>I don't get why he wouldn't get in? University of florida is a ***** school anyways.</p>

<p>^^you're a moron, shut up.</p>

<p>****ty or not, those are the standards to get in, if you have a different opinion, by all means say something with stats to back it up instead of baseless attacks.</p>

<p>sorry but the only way to get people to look is if harvard is in the subject</p>

<p>but still lying is bad.</p>

<p>are you that upset..</p>

<p>I'm not sure your chances on UF. They are being extremly picky this year, I live in Florida, so many of my classmates have applied. Many of them have already been rejected and a few deferred (a few got in). I'm sure it's even worse for OOS students. But you'll never know unless you apply. Good Luck!</p>

<p>you made me giggle. yes :D</p>
