<p>Great Letter of Recs</p>

<p>Creative Common App Essay (getting around to supplementals!)</p>

<p>My major would be economics with a high possibility of minoring in environmental studies. I plan on applying early action!</p>

<p>Low reach. I’m assuming the GPA translates to like a 3.75 or 3.8. Definitely take either the SAT or ACT again to raise the standardized test scores!!!</p>

<p>With a slightly higher SAT or ACT, you’ll be a shoo-in at UMich :)</p>

4

<p>Are you in Michigan? If not, it is definitely a low reach for you. The admission stat for UMich 2013 has average GPA of 3.85, mid 50 ACT 29-33, mid 50 SAT 2030-2250. If you can bring up your scores a little bit, you can be a high match.</p>

<p>I am not in Michigan. I live in New York.</p>
