Depends on the state as well though...
For instance my high-school stats:
GPA: 3.6 (unweighted) / 4.2 (Weighted)
Sat: 1360
I got into honors programs at Florida State University & University of Central Florida, however, got rejected from the University of Florida on my first try. Reapplied with a higher GPA in a few months and made it in....
Not every state school is a breeze to get into, in fact many state schools are ranked very high.. (i.e. UF, UGA, etc...)
