<p>You all seriously need to stop arguing about this and just wait. Arguing “what scores are ok” and “IBs and APs made up for it” is not going to change anything (especially at this point).</p>
<p>I went through this last year and trust me, the best thing to do now is wait. You are all wasting your time in this thread.</p>

<p>The freshman profile doesn’t include athletes. That’s for people that applied. So yes, there’s still a good amount of people getting in with an SAT below 1590. I know plenty of people with low GPAs and SATs that got in. Don’t underestimate your application.</p>
<p>Straight from the UF website: “Much success rests on how well you complete the online application, so be prepared.”</p>
<p>^right! much success rest in the app and in the people that evaluate the app. ahhh and by the way there is a thing called UF Alliance with High Schools, it helps!.</p>
<p>@gpowsang </p>
<p>I agree with what you’re saying. I’m not really even waiting for my admission decision; I just didn’t want the person to whom Ryan was talking (lr2010?) to be discouraged.</p>
<p>I’m not discouraging anybody. I’m just saying saying you should be realistic. </p>
<p>Check the stats of those who were admitted last year from CC and check how many people who got in with a around a 1500 or less in all three sections.</p>
<p>I couldn’t find any’ maybe you can. </p>

<p>^You do realize not all 25,000+ applicants posted their admission decisions and stats right?</p>
<p>gpowsang</p>

I don’t know what point you are trying to make besides the painfully obvious.</p>
<p>That thread gives you a better approximation than nothing.</p>
<p>Ryan, most of the people posting on college confidential are people who care about college, and thus are likely to be of a higher caliber than the average applicant.</p>
<p>^definitely! @Dnerd thanks! there are always people trying to make your life impossible, it doesn’t matter how realistic you are, the problem is to make that realism a real thing. We care about college, if someone is trying to give hard time to others, he better shut up! we simply don’t need that opinion.</p>
<p>I agree that people posting on college confidential have higher stats, but wouldn’t that assertion contradict this thread below in which cc people describe how they were rejected from UF with great test scores.</p>
<p><a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-florida/653162-1300-higher-but-rejected-thread.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-florida/653162-1300-higher-but-rejected-thread.html</a></p>
<p>Regardless, arguing about statistical difficulty for admission is pointless. The average GPA’s and SAT’s are posted on collegeboard. The University of Florida deals with over 27,000 applications and for them the most important thing is GPA, rigor of courses, and standardized test scores, as shown by this page below</p>
<p>[College</a> Search - University of Florida - UF - Admission](<a href=“College Search - BigFuture | College Board”>College Search - BigFuture | College Board)</p>
<p>Holistic admissions is just college jargon that allows a university to increase diversity by allowing in under qualified URM students and saying “oh they had a fantastic essay”. </p>
<p>If you all want to live with a false sense of security and say that we will all get into a college with a 37% acceptance rate, then I guess ignorance really is bliss. </p>
<p>Good luck to everybody, I hope your idealism proves to be true.</p>
<p>The stuff you say is very interesting yet it has many inconsistencies and the links you provide don’t say much.</p>
<p>In regards to the 1300 or higher but rejected thread, I see:</p>
<p>“Our Valedictorian has a 1020 on her SATs, but got accepted to UF for Fall '09. And in case anyone was wondering…she’s not a minority, first-generation, or low-income.”</p>
<p>"Hispanic here.
1360/1600
2000/2400
720M /640 V / 640 R… 7 AP’s… REJECTED!</p>
<p>What’s sad is that kids got in with 1100 SAT’s from my school."</p>
<p>Oh, and that thread you mentioned before with the class of 2013, there’s a white female with a 1100/1750, 25 ACT that got in.</p>
<p>Since this is the claim all of us have in regards to this thread, then the consensus is proven. And if SAT scores are SO important, then why is it that there’s a thread titled 1300 or higher… rejected?"</p>
<p>FYI, that College Board link is inaccurate. Says recommendations and interviews are considered right under the part where it says everything academic is by far the most important.</p>
<p>And finally, going by statistics of the enrolled population, 25% of people that submitted SAT scores scored below a 570 in the reading and 590 in the math and 25% of the people that submitted ACT scores scored below 25. That totals to about 25% of the school population which is around 1,600.</p>
<p>The fact that people with super-high grades and scores get rejected prove that there is in fact a holistic admission process and whether you want to accept it or not depends on you. I will assume you have high grades and scores (honest congrats there), but to disqualify others because you want to make yourself feel better is far more ignorant than what anyone has said thus far (and nobody said that we will all get in).</p>
<p>Good luck in February and I hope it works out.</p>

<p>here’s the correct statistics right from florida’s website. check it out.</p>
<p>I like how this topic has 7 pages and admission notifications don’t go out until next month… Someone should just make a new thread on Feb. 11th. This wasn’t a good idea.</p>
<p>I agree with Dnerd… though my guilty pleasure is to read what everyone is saying. Many of my friends applied to UF and we looking forward to seeing how UF picks this year. Sometime, straight off the top, though last year was more rounded. Who knows what goes into their template for a new student this year. It’s a wonder. I won’t accept even if accepted… too big too spread out…give me FSU honors.</p>
<p>Accepted!</p>
<p>UF GPA: 3.84 (at time of applying) UW: 3.35 (now) W:4.95 (now)
SAT: 2060 (680 CR; 690 M; 690 W)
~500 hours with 2 major leadership positions.</p>
