University of Michigan Admissions

I am currently a Sophomore in High School. So far, I have taken these classes; a "r" means it was a required credit (elective), and "^" means it is the greatest difficulty available. I completed my language credits when I was in 7th and 8th grade. Our school does class difficulty based on a .2, .3 (A), and .4 (H) scale, and all .2 classes that I have taken were because there were no other options. I have all of the credits needed to graduate as well.

Freshmen:

English 9A^

Geometry A

Biology A^

World History^

Health and Wellness r^

Computer Technology 1A^

Accounting 1A^

Sophomore:

American Literature A^

Algebra 2 A

Chemistry A^

IB Physics 1 A^

Economics & Personal Finance H^

Government H^

Marketing A r^(Art Credit)

I have gotten a 4.0 GPA, a 4.547 Weighted GPA so far, but it will drop slightly due to 2 A- and 1 B+ this semester. My planned coursework are as follows (In order by year)

Junior:

IB Lang. + Lit. 1 A^

AP Precalculus A

AP Chemistry H^

AP Biology 1 H^

Human Body Systems^

IB History of America H^

Senior:

IB Lang. + Lit. 2 H^

AP Calculus AB A^

IB Business Management A^

IB/AP Biology 2 H^

IB Psychology H^

TBD (Possibly Dual Enrollment or Health Care Tech.)

My extracurricular activities are pretty lackluster, as I am never able to drive due to my late birthday (End of May). I am a general member of the Red Cross Club, Club-Med, and DECA. I was a State Qualifier for DECA and attended the competition in Detroit, as I am a Michigan Resident. I am looking at starting a High School Chapter for a political organization for next year as well. Jobs, I am working at my local Minor League Baseball Team at concessions, and I am working/volunteering at a local clinic. I am unable to start until I turn 16, as I need a work permit. I was rejected from the NHS for this year due to my lack of volunteer hours. I played Freshmen Football last year, and am currently playing JV Men's Volleyball, and will make Varsity next year. I am of Hispanic Origin, my father is 50% or so, and everything else I'm just caucasian. As noted previously, I am a Michigan Resident and have been for my whole life. I will likely not qualify for financial aid, if that affects admissions at all. My PSAT 9 Score was 1210. I have not yet received my new PSAT score for this year. I will update when they come out. My parents went to Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia, so I don't have any family alumni either.

My intended majors are Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry, Pre-Med, or BioPhysics, all on Pre-Med Tracks. All feedback is appreciated. Thank you.

Honestly, you should get in fine. I would work to get some more extracurriculars, but other than that you should be fine.
