You guys think this is decent enough to get into Nova southeastern or maybe UF?

i think u have a pretty good chance of getting into nova or uf. i know a few people who got in last year with stats similar to yours. if u have some work experience, then i think u're good to go
 
I think your looking at average GPA not minimum or range. If the average is 3.4-3.6 that does not mean all people accepted have a 3.4-3.6 or higher that means 50% have higher and 50% lower

i concur. although your gpa and pcat score are important factors of getting accepted, work experiences, community/volunteer services, and other things can help an average-gpa applicant get accepted as well.

I know Nova more than you do. I had an interview with them last week. They do not even have my Pcat score yet. They just asked me how do you think you did? Gpa is more important to Nova than the Pcat. That is why I said "No" to him. He can try to apply, but a friend of mine had GPA 3.3 and she did not get accepted until her third try. She had to take more university credits to boost her Gpa to 3.5 to get in this year. Her pcat is 94%, and GPA is 3.3. They do not even call her in the first time. Second time, they rejected her for a reason : low GPA. Third time, she got accepted.
