Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>University of Miami is my absolute top choice. PLEASE chance me if you have the time!! And be really honest because I would really like a realistic opinion. Thank you!!</p>

<p>Hi, my name is Sarah and I am from Maryland so I am an out of state resident.</p>

<p>I have a low gpa of 3.02UWGPA/3.6WGPA which I believe is my weakest point.</p>

<p>MY SAT is 670 critical reading, 630 mathematics, and 640 writing</p>

<p>I have taken a total of 6 AP classes, passed all exams, and have taken a total of 2 college courses at my community college through dual enrollment.</p>

<p>I work part time during the summer and a am year around athlete.</p>

<p>I have 360+ SSL hours and I am student council president and national honor society president. </p>

<p>I am an Asian female, Jewish, adopted and come from a single mother home.</p>

<p>I have the extenuating circumstances of a manic bipolar father who abused prescription medication, had three suicide attempts, remarried four times, and has 7 children from separate marriages, and all the stuff you could imagine that would go along; but I know a lot of people have extenuating circumstances so that may not be so significant.</p>

<p>Please let me know what you think! All input is highly appreciated!!</p>

<p>Honestly, i think it’s a reach. I live in Miami and a ton of my friends got accepted to UM, with their average stats being a GPA above a 3.6 and SATs around 2100. I also know a lot of people that got rejected with stats better than yours. Now keep in mind this is anecdotal so dont put too much weight on it.</p>

<p>@sloth83 Coming from a person who knows a lot of people who have gotten in, would you say it is an attainable reach or just a reach reach? haha</p>

<p>I also live in Florida. It’s more of a reach school based on your circumstances based on the info provided. But there’s always a chance, so apply and see what happens :)</p>
