<p>Your GPA seems a little low for weighted. It’s a B/ low B+. Most people at Miami were in the Top 10% or Top 15% of their graduating class with a strong B+ or A-/A average. It is getting harder and harder each year to get in.</p>

<p>i think i’m switching weighted and unweighted then. Because thats my gpa without any recalculation.</p>

<p>so thats like i get a b in honors class. I think it goes up for weighted then? honestly I’m just confused by this whole thing. </p>

<p>I know non-recalculated to compensate for honors classes its that</p>

<p>I think you should be ok. If UM has your program then you should apply.</p>

<p>The lowest score is unweighted, I think you have it right above. Unless you went to a bad highschool, I think you’ll get in. The only problem is you don’t seem to have many extracurriculars. Good luck and go canes!</p>
