My GPA is 3.6, 1090 New SAT, 23 ACT. I was in IB for two and a half years and quit due to medical reasons, went to other school and took three AP classes. So far, I have been in seven AP classes and passed none of the tests. My essay is pretty strong and I am in a lot of extracurriculars and i have a job. I did an internship over the summer. My bad grades could be traced back to my constant hospitalizations. Do I have a chance of getting in>
It’s going to be a stretch, imho. But your personal circumstances may help (sorry you went through that!).
Did you jump through all the hoops on the application, including the resume?
Wishing you the best OP!
Yeah i feel my resume is strong enough. I got into FIU at least
I think it could go either way. Did your essay discuss the health challenges you’ve had to overcome? It sounds like you’ve had some struggles that many high school students don’t face, and you’ve worked hard to get where you are. I hope the Admissions office takes that into account when they look at your application.
Good luck!
my essay was all about my knee surgery that took me out of school for almost a month and the struggles with that lol! i hope i get the sympathy card from them! i don’t care how i get in i just want to get in
Well, Kizzle, I’d say “break a leg” for luck, but it sounds like you don’t need any more leg issues. Best of luck, maybe by this time tomorrow we’ll all have something to celebrate. Hopefully!
trying not to fear and think about the consequences, I’m fading out of consciousness … [-O<
