is it true UM doesn't recalculate gpa?

<p>that they count your non academic electives(like music and computer classes) in your gpa too?</p>

<p>either way please chance me ^_^</p>

<p>Hispanic male from Miami(i live like a mile and a half away from UM)</p>

<p>gpa:3.46 w(without non academic classes) 3.91 w(with non academic classes)</p>

<p>act:25(might retake and shoot for a 27)</p>

<p>mediocre ECs</p>

<p>good essay</p>

<p>im thinking maybe a 30% chance....</p>

<p>oh also</p>

<p>i've taken 7 honors classes from 9-11th grade </p>

<p>and</p>

<p>am taking 4 honors and 2 APs now(senior year)</p>

<p>when would you retake your ACT?</p>

<p>ah crap nvm the deadline has passed i thought it said oct. 15 not oct. 5 >.<</p>

<p>nvm i guess i have no shot >.<</p>

<p>gpa:3.46 w(without non academic classes) 3.91 w(with non academic classes)</p>

<p>i dont see how your GPA could be that high just with those classes?</p>

<p>did you receive a D or F in your high school career?</p>

<p>i guess it's 8 honors from 9-11th grade if you count earth space science from 8th grade</p>

<p>i calculated the weighted without non academic myself</p>

<p>i got my weighted with non academic classes(3.91) from my latest report card(end of 11th grade)</p>

<p>if you want to retake the act, you can always just do a walk in.</p>

<p>whats a "walk in" bosox?</p>

<p>if it helps any, i may have gotten a 25 composite ACT score but i was 1 sub score point away from a 26.</p>

<p>they do look at all the sub sections and not just the composite correct?</p>
