<p>2.62 won’t get you very far, to be quite honest. Bring up your grades while you still can!</p>

<p>its only a 2.62 for the first half of this yearlast years gpa ended up being about a 2.9</p>

<p>Still, try to get it to at least past 3. Colleges will look at it differently because you go to a prestigious school, but even that won’t make a 2.9 that impressive.</p>

<p>Good start with ECs, but that GPA won’t get you into prestigious schools (if that’s where you’re hopefully headed). You should try to bring up your grades while you’re still a sophomore for at least a low 3.2 etc. Then follow up with stellar junior/senior grades. But if you up the grades, the rest of your profile looks like a great start. Good Luck! =]</p>
