<p>Hello, I would like some opinions on what my chances of getting into UW-Seattle are:</p>

<p>UW: 3.69 ( up to end of junior year) should be higher if my senior courses were calculated
Weighted: 3.97
SAT: 1750 ( 580 CR, 630 M, 540 W)
Class rank: 58/479 (calculated up to the end of junior year) should be higher with senior courses; top 12%
EC: participated in high school swimming for 4 years, Red Cross volunteer 3 years, Key Club volunteer 3 years, attended a medicine and healthcare conference for 1 week this summer, succesfully auditioned intodistrict honor band, placed 3rd at solo & ensemble at the district level (clarinet), participated in band leadership 3 years, helped out with band related volunteering activities, played the piano for 6 years</p>

<p>In state resident; asian</p>

<p>My UW gpa is not the best because of my freshman and sophomore year ( average 3.55 gpa), but my junior year I cranked out a 4.0 UW gpa taking 4 AP classes ( AP chem, AP calc AB, AP lang, and AP US History). My senior year I am taking 5 AP classes ( AP physics, AP calc BC, AP comparative lit, AP comparative government, and AP Chinese and ended with a 3.9 UW gpa first semester.</p>

<p>In total, I have taken 10 AP classes throughout my 4 years and my cum gpa has shown an increasing positive trend despite taking more and more AP classes each year.</p>

<p>It would be nice if I had some honest feedback, thanks!</p>

<p>Pros: 3.69 GPA w/ lot APs, Music ECs
Neutral: Other ECs
Cons: 1750 SAT</p>

<p>From my perspective it looks like a lot of good things and a bad SAT score. One bad thing won’t hurt your application. You’ll most likely get in. </p>

<p>TL;DR I think you can count on seeing that purple envelope in your mail box in a few days</p>

<p>Thank you for your feedback, hitachiota!</p>

<p>you’re in. your one bad thing is the SAT, which is one of the least important things in UW admissions, from what i hear.</p>

<p>^ How can you say that OP is “in”?</p>

<p>Below average SAT (barely), below average gpa (although this is buoyed by the course rigor, so probably neutral or positive), and then some pretty typical EC’s (neutral).</p>

<p>I mean I think you’ll get in just because UW isn’t all that competitive, but let’s not get carried away. I think UW is a solid match school for you, maybe 65-70% chance you get in, assuming essays are up to par.</p>

<p>Thanks for your feedback! I just wanted to say that I recieved the gold envelope today! I’m pretty excited</p>
