Chances at being a DAWG

<p>You are doing fine in with the ECs and Community Service. However, you need to raise your GPA and SAT scores (as you stated). If possible, try sending UGA your midterm report in order to show them that you are doing well your senior year (don’t send this if it’s going to hurt your GPA). </p>

<p>Because you go to one of the top schools in GA, UGA most likely expects you to have a certain number of APs. I go to Columbus High School (I think we’re 3rd in GA now?) and my school offers around 15 APs and UGA expects a lot from us. So your course rigor needs to be up to par! If you’ve taken a lot of honor classes, make sure you mention which ones!</p>

<p>Aside from that, there isn’t much you can do now. What’s done it done and it’s hard to change your SAT scores and GPA this late in the game. While it’s definitely possible, most colleges stop accepting SAT scores after this upcoming test on the 22nd.</p>

<p>I think you have a fair chance of getting in, right now. If anything, your GPA will hurt you the most (since your weighed GPA is pretty weak considering a lot of students have UW GPAs at 3.8). So take the SAT this weekend and make sure you get above a 1900 (That’s what I got and I made it in).</p>

<p>Other than that, you’ll have to emphasize what sets you apart from everyone. Spend most of your time on the resume focusing on accomplishments and leadership roles. Write an amazing essay and get a good teacher for your recommendation and all of this may be able to outweigh you GPA.</p>

<p>GOOD LUCK! I’m pretty sure you’ll get in!</p>
