<p>@nambugoldstone Yeah, I’m probably going to get a 34 on my ACT</p>
<p>@BearHunter44 Is that site accurate?</p>
<p>Your gpa is a bit low but you have good ECs to balance that out. If you get that 34 ACT your in good shape.
U Penn is a reach while JHU, Duke, and maybe Notre Dame are low reaches. The rest are either high matches or just plain matches</p>
<p>All of them are high matches/reaches. Make sure you take the most rigorous schedule and get GREAT grades. It’ll be like an upward trend</p>
<p>@BB8764 Yes I have gotten an upward trend. I am also taking the really rigorous schedule. I will be the only one in my school next year taking 3 Science classes and 1 lab. </p>
<p>Hi Everyone,</p>
<p>I recently applied to UF for the Sociology program in the Fall 2014. My current overall GPA is a 2.68 and my preq GPA is a 3.15. I know i checked online for the transfer requirement were 2.5 overall and preq 2.75. What are my chances of being accepted? I put on my application that i have some classes still in progress. I check my application everyday! It recently said a couple of days ago that my application is being referred to the college for a final decision. I would love some feed back. I am so nervous!</p>
<p>@FloridaG33 what?</p>
<p>Thanks for the chance!
As others have written, it’s hard to judge this early in the game, especially without concrete standardized testing scores.
JHU-High Match
Duke-Low Reach
Notre Dame-Match
Tufts-Match
Emory-Match
Penn State-Low Match
Pitt-Low Match
Penn-Low Reach</p>
<p>Best of luck!</p>
<p>“struggling”</p>
<p>You seem to be doing well, I wouldn’t sweat it.</p>
<p>I don’t know what would be the point to taking 3 sciences at once. Don’t neglect to be strong in all the core areas</p>
<p>Well if you feel as if you CAN score high on testing, try the SAT</p>
<p>@aHashtag I was going to take the SAT but I could not manage to score more than 1980. This was with a Kaplan SAT prep-test that my school offered. </p>
<p>Without a concrete test score it is hard to tell. Also, you do not have a great deal of leadership shown which is important to a lot of top colleges. Get that 34, finish high school with a 3.8 unweighted, and show leadership and dedication to a few select clubs and all those schools will be within reach.
Chance back

<p>If you get the 34, you’re looking great for Penn State and Pitt (I’m assuming your safeties), NotreDame will be a low reach and and the rest will be reaches because they’re reaches for anybody…</p>
<p>First, stop wasting time practicing the ACT. Get a good score, but don’t stress over a 32 (still a great score). What seems more important for you is focusing yourself. Your ECs seem to be all over the place, and don’t seem to show a passion (which it seems most top tier colleges are currently looking for). Also, make sure to take a rigorous course load in both your junior and senior years. Colleges highly value a student who takes advantage of the resources available to them, and taking high level courses show that you will do so. Try to improve your GPA, but remember that a 3.7 UW with several APs is much better than a 4.0 UW with no APs. I honestly cannot tell you your chances at the schools you want to apply to, as there is not enough information, but if you continue to be a strong student and find a passion at your school, then I feel that you will have great chances when you apply.</p>
