<p>HI can u help me (above)</p>
<p>ana ivanovic: Hey, I already chanced you on a another thread… 
I don’t know what you’re worried about- you have a 36 and a 4.0…come on, you’ll get into ross for sure!</p>
<p>Any thoughts on my stats, michiganfan911? :)</p>
<p>If you got a B last year, you’re umich gpa wont be a 4.0</p>
<p>I used michiganfan911’s version of the UMich GPA System–my school doesn’t use GPAs but my average is A-/A.</p>
<p>esgee, I think you’re a match. You’re not supposed to superscore your SATs, though. Would that change anything if they were’nt superscored?</p>
<p>Yay!
Didn’t know about superscoring…the only thing that would change is my Writing section–it dropped (sadly :() the second time I took it, I got a 750. My CR and M sections stayed the same though.</p>
<p>Thanks for your input. Appreciate it! :)</p>

<p>i know, the 24 students part is weird! the senior class is divided at my school, into those aspiring for asian universities and the IB class. i’m in the IB class, bound for North America, Europe and Australia. Would I still have chances if I applied regular? Early on in the rolling admissions? Thanks</p>
<p>to michiganfan:

<p>So I talked to the administration in my school. Due to the conversion they use from percentage to letter based, my grades become As & mostly A+.
So what is my gpa now(3.9-4.0?) & where do my chances stand.
Also I would like to remind you that my courses are hard(if that interests the university).</p>
<p>thanks again for any reply,
zak</p>
<p>I think you still stand a great chance even for regular admission. Good luck! =)</p>
<p>To michiganfan911: could you chance me I’ll appreciate your opinion.
Also to zkevin: what do you think of the addition above, an good?</p>
<p>Thank in advance,
zak</p>
<p>Hey zak, I think you have a pretty good/medium chance of getting in. Its really great that you are #1 in your class and have a lot of hard classes. The only thing is that your SAT is on the lower end, but I don’t think that will cancel out all of your other positive attributes. Good luck! :)</p>
