What do you guys think of my chances?

<p>I'm really hoping the UW will see that I'm not dumb, I'm just lazy. I have a 3.2 GPA but a 2110 SAT, as well as 4s in four AP exams and 3 upcoming AP exams, one of which is an independent study. I think I have a pretty good record looking at everything EXCEPT my GPA, so how much weight is the UW going to place on that? </p>

<p>Also, what would you say are my prospects for the honors program? The more I learn about it the more I want in.</p>

<p>And lastly, does anyone know anything about the Music School? I'm auditioning in February and my nervousness for that had totally overshadowed my nervousness to hear back from them.</p>

<p>Thanks for reading!

<p>Well, if you are applying for a music major I would think that your audition and music skills would hold more of a weight than your academic record. I would focus on the audition if that was the case.</p>

<p>I've heard that the honors program really isn't all that great. My friend's sister got accepted, and she dropped out of honors after a year, because she just hated the honors class (which is only 1/3 classes). Honors is a 10-15% acceptance right I believe, and with those stats, it might be a bit tough. If your recommendation and essay is stellar, you might have a pretty good chance.</p>
