My gpa from HS was 2May 12 2009Political Science
My gpa from HS was 2.7 and my ACT was 21 and SAT was 980. I am sure it's getting more competitive since everyone is now trying to go to college and with people getting more denied from UCF, USF, FAU and FIU which were all doormat colleges, people will settle for here or UNF.

I would just do my best in HS. Even though if I did, i wouldn't have ended up at UWF. Just keep your options open.
