There is an admission person who posts on the U of Florida threads(@melissa). She addressed this on the UF 2026 thread and gave specific reasons to appeal, but grades and scores (correct ones, even perfect ones) is not a reason.

UF is holistic, even more so (IMO) than other schools that claim they are. A 3.85 will get in but a 3.99 may not. A kid from Miami might get in while a student with better stats from Tampa may not.

An option may be to go to Santa Fe and get the Gainesville experience and transfer in a year or two.

Good luck.
