What would be the worst I could do to just barely get accepted to the University of Michigan?
The minimum GPA, everything. I would like to use your answers and motivation, so to speak.
*as motivation
I finished off my last semester with a 3.4/3.5
Do you have to have AP and Honors classes to be accepted?
I would think that shooting for the minimum at such a competitive school would be enough to earn you a rejection, period. If you’re weak in one area, you have to be strong in another to compensate, or they’ll take someone who at least shows some spark of exceptional promise instead. I don’t know what grade you’re in, but if you’re not already a senior, push yourself: add some challenging classes to your schedule, study hard for your SATs, demonstrate leadership in your extracurriculars, figure out why you need to go to this particular school and write an amazing essay about it. There’s no set formula for admissions, so you have to assume that you’re being judged on everything and do your best. And if you’ve already done everything you can…well, you just have to hope for the best and have some solid backups.
