It is just a horrible trait of mine. This is the only thing which is really scaring me about my admittance 
[ *] Other Factors/questions: I’ve done all that I can to my capacity to achieve what I can, the best I can. I am currently having some issues in Calculus and AP Comp. Around mid B range, but everything else is a solid A. All honors classes were A’s, AP US and AP Physics were/are A’s, the remaining AP classes were high B’s. With these facts, in addition to my low SAT’s, will I still be regarded as a decent qualifier for admittance to UMich?</p>

<p>Thanks for your reply admgod007. Is there anything besides the SAT that would be holding me back? I’m going to wait for the early decisions to roll around and see what they have to say. If it is a deferral I know it would more than likely have to be my standard test scores. I have a friend who is currently attending UMich as a freshman and her general layout of activities/commitments are definitely a close mirror image of mine besides the few High B’s in my AP’s and the lower SAT’s on my end.</p>
