<p>chance probability?</p>

<p>Fatima, when are you planning to apply? Have you already applied? It is getting late.</p>

<p>Your Freshman grades will not hurt you since Michigan does not even look at them. Your Sophomore grades are weak by Michigan standards, but your Junior and Senior grades are excellent. So you are ok there. You took plenty of APs, so that will help. Your SAT is about average for Michigan, so that’s not a problem either. Your cultural background and languages will help. But you are not considered an URM, so that’s not even a consideration.</p>

<p>If you already applied, you chances are good. If you have not yet applied, your chances are not so good.</p>
