<p>How screwed are you if you're GPA jumps from a 3.8 to a 3.1 in a course of one semester (:(() Is there any hope towards still getting into the top 25? </p>
<p>(Note: this is Junior Year)</p>
<p>:(</p>
<p>say bye bye to harvard, sucker! mwahahahaha!</p>
<p>lol jk...to be honest i dont really know. If its just one course, that aint too bad though, right?</p>
<p>yeah, thanks for that</p>
<p>If you have a good reason for it, it's possible to make it.</p>
<p>do I state my reason on my application or something?</p>
<p>usually in an essay</p>
<p>wait...are you saying your cumulative gpa drops from 3.8 to 3.1?
you will definitely need good essays and recs and a sufficient "excuse"...
you might have a chance at a top 25...most likely not ivies...</p>
<p>no.. not cumulative... just my GPA from one semester to another.</p>
<p>WOW, how did that happen bdreamm? That's a HUGE jump. </p>
<p>Well, what your end of the year average? Some school, like mine, only send the end of year grades of a student.</p>
<p>only the cumulative gpa matters...</p>
<p>thank you lady:)</p>
