<p>shredmaster, I think you have a solid chance at Michigan EA. As an aspiring Wolverine myself, I think these specific areas are your strongest suits:
GPA- your GPA is actually very good considering the difficulty of your courses. You have pursued quite a few AP classes, and your 90 on 100 scale gpa will definitely be reviewed in light of the rigor of your curriculum. May I ask how many APs are offered at your school? Because if your school does not offer numerous APs in addition to those listed, that is great you have pursued all of those courses. Also, you exhibit a growing (upward) trend in GPA, which is great. Don’t worry so much about the 3 on AP Calc, that is only one test and there are placement tests available at the school. Your SAT is solid, and your 650 on WH is not too bad, don’t worry. You also did well on the other SAT IIs, and Michigan doesn’t even require SATiis, so these can only help you. I’d say based on test scores alone, you have a great chance for Michigan. GO BLUE!!</p>
<p>Thank you dreamerofoz, and yeah those were the only ap courses that were offered in my school except for ap bio, which i didnt take. I was just worried since i was Asian and also from out of state and there are a lot of kids who are applying EA to michigan since it’s one of the few famous schools that offers EA well any way hopefully i ll get in . GO BLUE!!!</p>
<p>To be honest, 3.78 isn’t anything special even though it is an upward trend. Another difficulty you’re gonna have is that you’re OOS. But you’re applying to LSplay so I guess you still have a decent shot.</p>
<p>Being OOS is going to kill me i guess … hopefully early action will save me… even though it’s much weaker than early decision</p>
