<p>I'm interested in the UF Honors Program. I'm a Florida resident, I'm taking IB and AP classes, I have a 3.6 unweighted, 4.2 weighted GPA. I got a 2100 on the SATs. </p>
<p>So I'd like to know is:</p>
<p>A.) What are my chances of getting in?
B.) What's it like? Has anyone else gotten into it?
C.) What's up with the Medical Honors Program? Anyone taken that either?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>PS: I'm a little worried, I got a "D" in IB Pre-Calc last semester. I'm going to take it again online, but it will be a regular class, not an IB class. Do you think they'll care if I got A's and B's in my previous math classes?</p>
<p>Check with your high school about a non-IB math class, first.</p>
<p>Your weighted GPA and SAT scores meet the basic criteria.</p>
<p>Son’s friend is in Honors. He’s pre-med. Loves it. Smaller school feeling within larger university. </p>
<p>I’m going to assume you are a FL resident. It’s not so easy anymore to guarantee UF, much less Honors. How are your EC’s?</p>
<p>Your set for UF, being in IB. This past year ~80% of those in the IB program got into UF from my class.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You have a solid shot at getting into UF Honors and given your SAT score is 30 points above the minimum, will be sent an invitation to apply.</p>

<p>I’m an incoming freshman who was accepted this past spring. From what I’ve seen it looks pretty awesome. I was also in IB and had 2120 SAT/~5.5 WGPA/3.8 UWGPA</p>
<p>

<p>From what I’ve heard, you apply to the program your sophomore year. If accepted, your admitted into UF Med and can graduate with a BS/MD in 7/8 years. It’s crazy competitive and only a handful get selected. I plan on applying my sophomore year.</p>
<p>Thanks so much!!! I want to do pre-med too, and be a heart surgeon someday! I do a lot of volunteer work, at the hospital and the animal shelter mostly. Volunteering is the only extra-curricular activity I do though. I don’t really have time for things like band or sports. </p>
<p>Wow! Getting into the med thing seems difficult. I’ll have to try really hard my first two years, lol. I guess if I don’t get in, I’ll just apply for med school normally.</p>
<p>Thanks for the advice! I’m going to visit UF on Tuesday actually. I’m pretty excited. :D</p>
