<p>Courses
5 AP next year, 2 in junior year. the rest of the class are about a half and half mix of Honors and other courses. but my grades are the same no matter how difficult the class is...for example...same grade in AP english (Junior) as in "general" english (Freshman)</p>

<p>thank you very much for chancing me.</p>

<p>oh i recieved a 2 day in school suspension during my junior year for bring an unauthorized object to school which i can explain, but it could still hurt me in the admission process.</p>

<p>....bumppppp</p>

<p>bump....chance pleeeseee</p>

<p>U Mich- reach
OSU-Columbus - low low match
Miami-Ohio - match</p>

<p>"U Mich- reach
OSU-Columbus - low low match
Miami-Ohio - match"</p>

<p>You are aware that Ohio State is significantly harder to get into than Miami of Ohio and has a lower acceptance rate (57% to 80%), a higher portion of students from the top tenth of their high school class (52% to 35%), a higher middle 50% ACT range (26-30 to 24-28), more students scoring 30+ (27% to 15%) and fewer students scoring 24 or less (9% to 21%)</p>

<p>I'd put his choices as:</p>

<p>Michigan--Reach
Ohio State--Match
Purdue--low Match
Miami of Ohio--safety
Michigan State--safety</p>

<p>thank you guys very much. and any other college recommendations?</p>

<p>please chance me on these school:</p>

<p>Umich AA
MSU
Purdue
University of Wisconsin: madison
NYU
Va Tech</p>

<p>match on VA Tech, just make sure you get that two day ISS cleared up, esp. because of the recent incident at tech.</p>

<p>yeah the school ruled it as a "possession of an unauthorized object" and i have a explanation, it was an honest mistake and i was very honest about it. so it should be okay.</p>

<p>bumpppppppp</p>

<p>alright just finished my application to Umich...along with MSU, Purdue and Vatech.</p>

<p>i think i'm gonna apply to Wisconsin Madison</p>

<p>can someone recommend me three more schools. business and engineering heavy.</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>UW - Madison link to Freshman Admission Expectations:</p>

<p><a href="http://www.admissions.wisc.edu/images/UW_FreshmanExpectations.pdf%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.admissions.wisc.edu/images/UW_FreshmanExpectations.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>A 3.5 UW and a 28 ACT composite gives you a 55% chance to get admitted to UW-Madison based on the 'guidelines'. UW-Madison has a holistic approach and considers leadeship qualities, nonacademic achievement, diversity in personal background, experience and potential for contribution to the Wisconsin community as well as your academic factors</p>

<p>Good luck!.</p>

<p>i have applied to </p>

<p>Umich
MSU
VA Tech
Wisconsin
Purdue
Minnesota</p>
