<p>You are someone that they may take. If you are coming out of the city with atleast a 1500, you may have a chance at UMBC. Once you get to UMBC you are going to struggle unless you get some help. Make sure you get it or your grades will suffer. Sure they take 61% now but they have been making the news and they are getting harder to get accepted. The latest information for the middle 50% of stats is SAT 1640 to 1940. Your SAT would put in the bottom of the SAT pool. Your GPA is not high and your course rigor does not seem hard since there is not much of a difference between you unweighted and weighted GPA. Looks like some honors courses maybe or an AP class. Don’t give up and work harder in high school because it will make the difference in preparing you for college.</p>
