<p>this is my first post here, been looking around for a while now. i wana see what you guys think my chances are, im a slightly above average student in the IB program.</p>

ACT-27</p>

<p>GPA

<p>its decent, but not outstanding. im classmates of faresx25x and lukaslunacy and lukas blows me away (literally and figuratively,lol) and im on par with fares except for probably math courses and GPA.</p>

<p>my cuzin is a major contributor to the gator nation. i have 4 1st cuzins ad 2 2nd cuzins that went there. doubt thatll mean anything.</p>

<p>what do you guys think my chances are?</p>

<p>You have fair chances, but not stellar.
I would say it can be ~70%</p>

<p>IB might make the difference</p>

<p>I'd agree and say that IB is definitely going to help you here. However, since UF is a public school, ACT/SAT scores and GPA are heavily weighted in the admissions process, and that may be your downfall. Don't fret though, your schedule may help you a lot.... So I'd say you have a decent chance :)</p>
