My chances at UMASS Amherst?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I'm a senior from an in-state public school. I did terrible freshman year and my grades are on a very positive trend. (Freshman GPA: <2, Senior + Junior GPA: >3.5.) Also have taken Honors and AP classes (AP Gov, Bio, Physics 1, Psych). I don't have many extracurriculars, but have done more recently (DECA, Tennis 11-12, in process of creating Red Cross Club). SAT score is 1910 (CR=620, M=600, W=690 w/ 12 essay). Not much to excuse for Freshman year besides apathy. I've also been working 30+ hours a week during school year and 50+ during summer, since Junior year. Also looking to study Bio w/pre-med pathway. My guidance counselor said she is going to write me an amazing review (she said I changed more than any student she's every seen), and my German teacher said I matured immensely (I had her for 3 years). I think my essay will also be good as I'm a pretty good writer. Also I took a relatively rigorous course load this year (AP bio, AP psych, AP physics 1, Pre-calc) and I predict all grades will be above a B at the end of the semester.</p>

<p>Chance me for UMass Amherst. I am also looking at UNH, Roger WilliamsU, URI, and UMass Dartmouth. My GC it was probably a 50/50 at Amherst. Thank you!</p>

<p>I think you have a good chance at admittance. An upward trend is not always a bad thing, often it looks good to admissions officers. Your SAT scores are right on track. I think you’ll be admitted to UMass Amherst. </p>
