Please be nice, my confidence is already low.
hey! the U tends to take into account hardships that may have hindered academic success, your course rigor and good ACT score can make up for that. Did you apply early decision? Did you talk about your hardships/ illnesses in your personal essay? you definitely rise to competition with your act score!
Hey,thank you for a reply! I am applying early decision two because I needed more time for my application, and I will be talking about my personal health problems in the essay. I also have a guidance counselor who will be writing a recommendation and disusing my heath problems in it. I am hoping this helps. Also I am retaking the ACT and hoping to raise my super-score to a 32.Do you think these will help? Thanks for all your help!
Also that hpa is on a 5.0 scale
