I used to work in the admissions office at UM. He's right. The application process is quite holistic so one "negative" or mediocre aspect won't bring you down. That doesn't mean to not give everything your all, of course. The admitted students are usually exceptional in some way (started a business, volunteers, wins awards, IB, multilingual, etc). Great video!

I’m a student at the U. You got very very lucky getting into Miami with a 25 ACT and a 3.4 GPA... If you’re a white student with an ACT below a 28, you’ll probably have about a 5% chance of being accepted unless you’re recruited as a D1 athlete. It was probably thanks to your KZbin channel that you were accepted. I’ve only ever met one person at UM with an ACT and GPA that low, and she’s a legacy whose father gives a ton of money to the school...

Just as an additional data point from a guy who went to UM back in 2003-07. My SAT was 800 quant / 710 verbal (back in 2002 when it was still out of 1600), ACT was 33 with perfects in math and science. My GPA was pretty bad in high school (I was barely in the top half of my graduating class) since I was a low C student in everything except science where I had an A+ average and took all AP science/math classes that were offered at the time and got 5s in all of them. I was an eagle scout, class president, state medalist in wrestling, and 1st chair trumpet in state band. I applied regular decision to UM, Northwestern, and Duke. I got into all 3, but ended up going to UM due to location and scholarships. I studied Mechanical Engineering with minors in French and Music.

High school GPA? I honestly don't know; it's been 15-20 years since I was in high school. I think my % average was around 80% and my school didn't use a 4.0 scale, but I guess it would have been around 2.8/4.0 scale. I did well on my AP exams: I got 5s in Chemistry, Calc BC, Physics C, and both Econs and a 4 on French. I entered UM as a sophomore since they awarded me 32 credits for all that. I think the admissions people just excused my poor GPA because I had really high SAT/ACT scores with a lot of 5s on the AP exams and had tons of extracurricular activities.

Does that mean they are dumber than me? does that mean their future won't be as good as mine? OF COURSE NOT ! There are millions of students who are in community college that are waaaaay smarter than students who go to top state schools or private schools.
