<p>My brother and I are both seniors in high school and are in the process of applying to UCF. We live in New Jersey. Throughout high school we have taken many honors classes and 2 AP Classes, AP Calc and AP US History(Both this year as our school doesn’t offer much). Also, we took 3 years of a language(Spanish). I am ranked 8th in the class and my brother is ranked 9th. There is about 100 kids in the senior class(small school). On the SAT I got a 500 in Math, 530 in Reading, and a 550 in writing. He got a 490 in Math, a 470 in Reading, and a 480 in Writing. We are also getting 3 recommendation letters from various teachers and a counselor recommendation as well. Our GPA is a 95, I believe that’s a 3.9 or so on a 4.0 GPA scale. We didn’t do anything outside of school, besides 4 years of work experience. We plan to major in a form of engineering.
What are the chances of us being accepted?</p>
<p>What do you guys think?</p>
<p>Here are some admissions statistics. It looks like you’re below the mean of the freshman class. That being said, they didn’t give the standard deviation, so maybe you do have a shot.</p>

<p>I saw that but, I looked on collegeboard and the scores are lower 
I’m not sure what ones are correct.</p>
<p>They’re probably from two different years, meaning either one could be correct for this year.</p>
<p>Out of curiosity, why UCF if you live in New Jersey? You know these schools cost a lot more for out of state students.</p>
<p>Actually UCF is only about $28,000 per year. Rutgers is roughly the same price as well. </p>
<p>The town I live in basically sucks, it’s a really bad small town. No one really cares about anything and the kids are so bad… So I want to go far away from them. I want to venture out of New Jersey. Plus, I have family friends that aren’t too far from Florida and the education is really good too and the campus is beautiful (just visited UCF 3 weeks ago)</p>
<p>I like your chances…SATs are a little low but while UCF is a solid school, it isn’t super selective. I’d say you are probably in. Good luck! Chance back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1201569-chances-senior-will-chance-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1201569-chances-senior-will-chance-back.html</a></p>
<p>Hopefully I can increase my SAT scores so I’ll have a better change 
thanks :)</p>
<p>Did you guys hear back yet? And what term did you apply for (summer, fall or spring)?</p>
