Help me out with FSU?

[remixedx3]

<p>Can I get in to FSU? :/</p>

<p>Upcoming senior.</p>

<p>I live in DeLand, Florida, and I'm kind of worried that I won't get in to FSU :/ I'm looking to major in either criminology, communications, Voice, or music production.</p>

<p>3.2 weighted gpa, 2.7 unweighted. However, that's from my high school. I couldn't figure out how to recalculate properly to FSU's standards.</p>

<p>I'm an IB Student, 2 honors courses, 2 regular courses, otherwise all Pre-IB in 9th/10th grade, IB in 11th/coming up 12th grade.</p>

<p>As you can tell from the gpa, mostly B's but 2-3 a's and c's since High School began.</p>

<p>I'm Review editor of the school newspaper, 3700 kids attend my school.</p>

<p>Also am involved in Spanish National Honor Society (took 4 years and hopefully a 5th to get my bilingual degree)</p>

<p>Also have many community service hours involving performing for benefits and such.</p>

<p>1830 on SAT (500 math, 640 writing, 690 reading)</p>

<p>My GPA is worrying me. Can anyone help? Thanks!</p>

<p>Looking to apply early decision next month.</p>

<p>If Florida State is your dream, have [Tallahassee</a> Community College](<a href=“404 - Tallahassee Community College”>http://www.tcc.fl.edu/) as a backup. A 2.5 to 2.99 (out of 4.0) GPA enrolls at FSU about 2% of the time.</p>

<p>Don’t IB classes add bonus points to their recalculated GPA though? :/</p>

<p>Yes. FSU favorably weighs IB, Honors and AP classes.

Calculation of High School Academic GPA</p>

<p>The Office of Admissions recalculates all grade point averages - we do not use the GPAs listed on your high school transcript or report card. Only academic subjects will be used in the recalculation. Grades of C- or better in dual enrollment, AICE, AP, and IB coursework will receive 1 full bonus point in the calculation; grades of C- or better in honors, pre-AICE, pre-AP, and pre-IB will receive 1/2 bonus point. For repeated courses, we will only forgive a low grade if the exact course has been repeated (i.e. Algebra I will not replace an Algebra I honors grade - both courses will be used in the recalculation).

<p>Yeahh, I read that :/</p>

<p>So is it a possibility that my GPA will be a lot better after getting recalculated? I’d recieve a full bonus point for 10 classes this coming year and last, and then 5.5 for 9th and 10th.</p>
