How the Calculator Works
The calculator uses a weighted average to estimate your acceptance probability. The formula used is:
Acceptance Score = (GPA * 25) + ((SAT - 400) / 1200 * 50) + (Extracurriculars * 10) + (Recommendation Letters * 10)
The result is then converted to a percentage.
Limitations
Please note that this calculator is an estimate and should not be considered as a definitive answer. College acceptance is influenced by many factors not included in this calculator, such as essays, interviews, and other subjective measures. Always consult your college’s admissions policies for accurate information.
