<p>I would say you’re already in if it wasn’t for your GPA. It’s not too pretty, but you have very attractive EC’s, and your SAT Scores are out of this world. </p>

<p>Still, I would say you have a great chance.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t worry about your county. UF has more Broward students than any other county. [University</a> of Florida: Growing more than Gators. In all 67 counties.](<a href=“http://www.urel.ufl.edu/economicImpact/]University”>http://www.urel.ufl.edu/economicImpact/)
Besides, that’s pretty much the only thing you have no control over. :)</p>

<p>You look like a great applicant, good luck!</p>
