<p>ahmadiance66, I would not say you are a slam dunk but you should definitely apply. Chances are better if you are in-state. Both GPA and standardized tests are within range but neither are at the top of the range. With a 3.7 the question will be whether that is good for your high school and whether your course rigor is good. I don’t think higher test scores will significantly enhance your chances but they may marginally improve your chances.</p>

<p>thanks so much res ipsa… :)</p>

<p>ahmadiance - you are out of state aren’t you? You don’t have an ACT score which is required in the state of Michigan? If you ask for chances on uofm thread it’s good to say whether you are in or out of state as Michigan is a public school and it is more competitive for out of state because traditionally they accept a smaller percentage and many, many out of state kids apply.</p>

<p>ACT is not required for UofM. But you must take either ACT or SAT. Note that of enrolling freshmen, 80% submitted ACTs and 34% submitted SATs. Obviously some provided both.</p>
