<p>ACT:24, right now. 27, when i retake it in september.</p>

<p>thanks in advance.</p>

2

<p>Lackluster grades, nice senior year schedule, almost non existent ec's, and a test score thats about 2 points too low... IMO 30-40%</p>

3

<p>that percentage is higher than i expected lol</p>

4

<p>well...I dunno...UF is all over the place with admissions. I wouldn't mind listing it as 10-30 or 10-40%. Actually I think 10-30% is more accurate</p>

5

<p>Reach, I wouldn't say it's a HUGE reach though. I would give it a shot! You have a chance. Hopefully you increase your ACT score so that it can make up for your gpa.</p>

6

<p>UF is getting more and more competitive. I would agree with the others that it is going to be a reach.</p>

7

<p>thanks a lot you guys!</p>

8

<p>Depends on your major. For liberal arts, you can probably get in.</p>

9

<p>Major doesn't matter, this is general admissions.</p>

10

<p>Pull up your test scores.</p>

11

<p>that gpa is really low</p>

12

<p>If you can write a good essay and a good application, then you have a chance.</p>

<p>I had 3.26 uw, 1270 sat.
I think my essay and ec's were excellent however, and that is what got me in.
They are looking for a unique individial, thats why many people are surprised by 4.0 students that don't get in.</p>
