<p>Are you in state or out of state? It makes a difference - it will be tougher to get in from out of state with these stats. You should read the discussion on the other threads on this topic to get an idea of what to do and what your chances are. Many strong students are deferred at Michigan.</p>
<p>Most public schools including Michigan tend to put an emphasis on gpa over other things. I’d say a high match or low reach. My stats are similar to yours and I got deferred as well.</p>
<p>I am very similar to you GPA wise; I was deferred. Fortunately (for me anyways) I’m in-state, and am a 3.55 as opposed to a 3.45, with a more rigorous schedule.</p>
<p>I also am hoping to have my 7th semester be my strongest (finals next week). I don’t know if that GPA is final, but if it’s not increase it. That is the most glaring mark on my app, I think, and likely on yours as well. So if you can try and raise it. (Again, if I have a strong 7th semester I can get to more like a 3.6-3.7, which I would feel would be extremely helpful, especially since this semester has been my most rigorous.)</p>
