<p>I got straight As last semester but will that be enough to actually get me accepted? My essays were probably not very good because I’m not a very creative writer but I worked on them really hard!</p>

<p>Depending on what program you applied to, I think your stats are good enough for LSA and CoE. There were tons of deferrals for EA, some of the top kids in my grade didn’t get accepted into LSA so I’m thinking UM doesn’t want to make the same mistake it did last year by underestimating how many students would actually enroll. This, I think, should translate out to more acceptances for RD.</p>

<p>So like possibly, I will be accepted RD? And I applied to LSA</p>
