<p>Going into senior year this year, and to be honest this is one of the schools i´d really like to go to.</p>
<p>latin male</p>
<p>weighted GPA: 3.6
(yeah i know, i messed up my first two years of highschool)</p>
<p>i cant calculate my unweighted GPA at the moment.</p>
<p>SAT: (first time, plan on taking it again)
total: 1850
reading: 660
math: 620
writing: 570</p>
<p>I took two AP courses junior year, APUSH and AP ENG Lang.
i got 4 on both tests.
I plan on taking at least 2 more AP courses senior year.
I was a part of the football/soccer team.
I feel as if i have a low chance of getting in if i do not raise my SAT score/take the ACT, yet at the same time the general consensus is that applying early gives you a better chance of getting accepted.
truthfully i feel as if im running out of time, starting my last year of highschool and all, so any wisdom or advice on what i should do would be appreciated.
thanks</p>
<p>In actuality, base upon your presented statistics, you have a good chance of gaining admissions as a freshman 2012. Suggestion-
- Apply early
- Retake your sat, you have about a month until next dealine
- Take the ACT and the closing deadline is S O O N approaching
Good Luck</p>
<p>I think that your stats are basically the typical student who gets accepted. You should have no problem at all with gaining acceptance from University of Central Florida. I wouldn’t waste your money on retaking the SATs or ACTs because your score is above average for UCF. I found this from a website…
High Low Avg
SAT Combined: 1910 1610 1760
SAT I Math: 650 550 600
SAT I Critical Reading: 630 530 580</p>
<p>You shouldn’t have anything to worry about. Stay positive and I wish you the best of luck! :)</p>
<p>thank you both for the replies!!
I have another question if anyone would be kind enough to help me out, regarding early applications…
what is considered ‘early’?
and if i do chose to re-take the SAT or take the ACT, will i miss that early application deadline? ( because it takes at least 2-3 weeks for the SAT scores to come out, and i dont know about the ACT)
thanks again!</p>
<p>Well UCF has rolling admissions, so there is no exact early deadline. I would consider anywhere before mid-november early, but that’s just a personal opinion. After that time the admissions gets pretty crammed up.</p>
<p>Apply before the end of September…or even the end of August. Last year they started their acceptances mid September. The sooner the better. It can’t hurt!</p>
<p>Your definately in. Start the app. now though. They ask alotta stupid crap</p>
<p>You have a good chance. I think that they are kind of a 1200 math/CR SAT type of school.</p>
