For a low GPA student, how much will impact an excellent first sem. senior year have?

<p>PLEASE get off college confidential this instant. It will just make you feel like **** about yourself when 3/4 of these people are delusional and incorrect.</p>

<p>A few weeks ago I posted a thread asking if I have any chance of getting into UChicago and everyone pretty much laughed at me.</p>

<p>I got a 1900 on the SAT, 580 in math section, so by UChicago statistics, I literally had a 1% chance of acceptance because they only let in 1% of applicants who had a math SAT score in the 500 range. I have an average GPA of 4.5 weighted (nothing compared to other applicants), 2 local awards, 3 clubs, 400 volunteer hours, no UMR or sad story, no athletics, I just showed immense interest in the university and I got deferred EA. </p>

<p>By everyone’s standards I should have got flat-out rejected from UChicago, but they deferred me.</p>

<p>You have beyond incredible awards and EC’s that even Harvard would be satisfied with. Your stats make up for your GPA and colleges will take that into consideration!</p>

<p>Please get off this site, relax, put your heart into your supplement essays, and let the universities you applied to judge you, not these people.</p>

<p>Apply the the University of Miami or Boston College or NYU just in case, but stop worrying! What’s done is done and you cannot change that. </p>

<p>I wish you the best of luck, and I know that no matter where you go, any college should be privileged to have you.</p>
