<p>THANKS!</p>

<p>To be honest, accumulating one AP class by the end of junior year and maintaining a 3.7UW does not help your chances. If you had a rigorous schedule, then your GPA could be approached differently by the admissions committee. I’m sorry, but even if you do take three AP courses senior year, I do not believe you will be able to compete with the caliber of the applicants (note that there will be even more vying for each spot than there were this year) who apply to Ross next year.</p>

<p>Thanks. That’s true, coursework is somewhat light. School didnt offer that many AP’s till senior year. I did take all the honours courses though, not sure how much do they count.</p>

<p>Honors courses do help. I don’t want my words to discourage you from applying. A 34 on the ACT is very admirable, and could get you in. I’m sure applicants with worse statistics have secured admission in previous years.</p>
