What are my chances for UF?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hi everyone! I need some advice from people applying to UF, currently attending, or alumni? At the end of my Junior year I will have a 4.1 weighted and around a 3.6/3.7 unweighted. I'm not really sure which one since the semester isn't over yet. I've taken my SAT twice during Junior year. The December one I got a 1700 total, but my other scores come out on Thursday, so hopefully they drastically improve. I know they're not that great, but I'm hoping they skyrocket because of the information I've learned this year. I recently took my ACT but haven't gotten scores back yet. I have crazy extracurricular activities, which I'm hoping will help me a lot.</p>

<p>Junior Year:</p>

<p>Junior Class Treasurer
Vice President of Leo's Club
Secretary of Invisible Children
Active member of the Beta Club
Active NHS member</p>

<p>Senior Year:
Running for Senior Class President (not guaranteed)
The following positions are guaranteed:
President of the Leo's Club
President of Invisible Children
Beta Club member
NHS member (hoping for a position in that)
**Also I am starting my own club that's helping middle school students prepare their high school classes and their futures if they don't have steady parental guidance regarding school, because I know I didn't, which is why my GPA is not that great. Not blaming my parents, I just wish they would've pushed me harder because I know I'm capable.</p>

<p>ALSO: I'm taking 3 classes over the summer. Dual College Algebra/Statistics at the community college in my area to get my GPA up.
And then I'm taking two AP courses online (undecided) to also get my GPA up.</p>

<p>I'm really dedicated to working as hard as I can to impress the University of Florida.
I'm currently taking 3 AP classes.
And Senior Year I am taking 5. </p>

<p>I would just like to know my chances because getting into UF is all I think about, and constantly stress over. I've worked really hard to have my GPA the way it is, unlike some students at my school who have breezed their way through with a 4.4 and above.</p>

<p>ALSO- I played JV volleyball freshman year, and Varsity volleyball sophomore and junior. But I am not playing my senior year.
And I started working at Moe's, December of 2012.</p>

<p>I think your chances are very high. If you could get your SAT/ACT scores higher, then you’re pretty much in. My friend, Kelly, just got accepted into UF and she had a 4.1 weighted when they recalculated her GPA. Keep in mind that they do recalculate it based on your CORE classes only (English, Math, Science, History and Foreign Language). So if you have strong cores then you’ll be fine. Also, I didn’t see exactly how many community service hours you’ve earned. If you could please tell me that, then that would be great. Kelly told me that UF looks very closely at community service so make sure you have a lot! Other than that though, you should be fine! Best of luck!</p>
