Note, I also want to add that a lot of people are saying that I have a 50-50 of getting into the University of Michigan.
Going of off the main six criteria the recruiter said, this is how I stack up.

I have a good GPA (below average for them) ~ 3.71 Weighted, 3.62 unweighted. My weighted GPA shows an upward/semi-constant trend but my unweighted shows a downward trend)

I have a good ACT score ~ 31 (in the middle 50%)
I am expecting a really nice SAT score too (1450+)

I have incredible class rigor because I have always be placed into harder classes than usually peers.

I show leadership, commitment, and passion in my extracurriculars

My essays are easily better than average and maybe even top 15% according to some English teachers (one whom is writing me a letter)

I have at least two great teacher recs.

I am saying this to prove that every little factor counts. Please help!
Thanks again.
