<p>My freshman year i got a 3.3 . My sophomore year i got a 3.7 and right now in my junior year im on track of getting a 4.0 . Are there any schools that dont factor in freshman grades because the 3.3 is weighing me down.</p>
<p>It is my recollection that Johns Hopkins and McGill don’t count the 9th grade</p>
<p>Public universities in California do not use 9th grade course grade in calculating GPA, although C or higher grades are necessary for the courses taken in 9th grade to meet subject requirements in English, math, etc… However, the semi-holistic review at some of the most selective public universities in California will see the 9th grade course grades along with other grades.</p>
<p>How about Virginia Tech, UVA, Duke?</p>
<p>Stanford and Princeton, I believe. Though of course those are teaches from everyone. I second the UC suggestion. UCLA, UCB, and UCSD are all top colleges that don’t consider freshman gpa</p>
<p>I am pretty sure Duke doesn’t and I know Carnegie Mellon does not.</p>
<p>While those schools many not factor freshmen grades into their recalculation of GPA, all except the UCs look closly at rank which does include freshmen year.</p>
<p>Stanford doesn’t</p>
<p>University of Michigan doesn’t.</p>
