So I Really Want to Go to William and Mary!

<p>I'm a sophomore at a very small high school in Spokane, Missouri and it isn't really all that good of a high school, it seems that we are a bit behind. I have around a 3.7 GPA and have never taken my ACT/SAT, what are the chances of being admitted into William and Mary?</p>

<p>The info you’ve provided isn’t really enough information to make an assessment or provide any specific advise.</p>

<p>What we can tell you is that we do evaluate every applicant in the context of where he/she goes to school so we evaluate your courses in the context of what’s offered. We do the same with your GPA.</p>

<p>The profile of our admitted students are those who take the most challenging courses offered at your high school (we recommend courses like calc, physics and the fourth level of a single foreign language), they are generally in the top 10% of their class (GPA is very school specific so we don’t have an average GPA), and the middle 50% of our applicants score between 1240-1450 (Critical Reading + Math) or 27-32 (ACt). </p>

<p>Because we are a public school, we are more selective for out-of-state students generally admitting about 28% of those who apply.</p>
