I am a junior and U of M is my first choice – I would apply to LSA. What do you think my chances are?
OOS (NY)
Legacy (my mother, uncle, grandfather and grandmother all went to U of M)
GPA: Including estimates for junior year grades, my unweighted GPA will be around 3.86 on the Michigan unweighted scale. Weighted my GPA is 4.25. I will have only 3 B+ grades. All As otherwise.
Rigor: I take all Honors/AP classes for both 10th/11th grades - so highest rigor possible
High School: I go to public high school that is very competitive. I guess that I will be in top 5% of my grade.
ACT: Have not taken yet. On diagnostic, I scored a 33 so I am hoping for 33-34.
