ACT is a little low and GPA is very low. Try to get them up! Good luck,

You have great EC’s (my personal favorite being DECA) but your gpa is a little low. Just check to see if it is above most other students from your school applying.

ACT is not horrible, but on the low side…but paired with a very low GPA…I’m concerned whether you’ll be competitive.

Being in state, and your upward trend might make a difference.

You have a pattern of starting off a school year weak, and then improving. Admissions will be asking themselves why you repeatedly do that.

Starting weak won’t work at UMich. It will be a source of concern.

The academic rigor is there, but the performance lacks a bit.

Competition is very very stiff.

Best wishes, and good luck. Please let us know.
