Okay Standardized Test scores, Chance on OSU?

<p>Just to start things off, my current GPA is 3.27 UW, probably going to be 3.15 by the end of junior year.</p>

<p>Very Competitive High School , Taken 11 Honors, 9 AP Courses. Will reach 12 APs by Senior.
Really wide array of EC. Won't have great teacher reqs. </p>

<p>I have only taken the SAT and ACT once.</p>

<p>Got an ACT Composite of 30 </p>

<p>Got an SAT of 1920/2400 or 1310/1600.</p>

<p>Just wondering, what can I do to increase my chances of acceptance at OSU? </p>

<p>Can I be accepted with my current stats? </p>

<p>I don't care about Scholarships, I just want to be able to get in (Fisher School)</p>

<p>If this helps, my dad is a professor and has a few colleagues that teach at OSU...</p>

<p>Thanks for reading and I hope for nice responses.</p>

<p>Sorry for poor grammar, It's AP test week. 5 AP tests yay</p>

<p>I think you’re fine, SAT scores can always get higher, but I think the only reason you would be declined is your GPA, but that may be unlikely due to the amount of AP classes you’re taking</p>

<p>Anyone else provide some help?</p>

<p>1310 SAT is well-above the average, but your GPA is slightly lower than the average pool of OSU. Anyway, you shouldn’t have much problem because you have taken the hardest course available (which colleges love to see)</p>

<p>Edit, </p>

<p>I am going to take prep classes to get into the 2150+ and 33+ range. If I achieve these with amazing EC and internships, will a easy school like OSU forget about my meager GPA? IE what do I need for public colleges to bypass my GPA? Please don’t just say 2400 36 Eskimo African mix with UN internship</p>

<p>The consideration factor for GPA & SAT (or ACT) is really different for colleges by colleges. Getting a 4.0 GPA usually conveys that the student has been working really hard since freshman till the senior year. Getting 2400 or 34 can also convey that the student has a great capability to adjust into college programs.
Therefore, try to bypass your GPA with outstanding SAT scores (I will say above 2000 is very impressive) and with your ECs that show you are different than others.</p>

<p>Bump, I need some help</p>
