<p>My first choice shool is Yale, I have talked to the track coach at yale he is very interested, and has told me that i am high on his list. I have my states record in the 800m i am nationaly ranked in the event as well. The coach has informed me that my low GPA could pose a problem though. What do you think my chances are do you think my GPA could keep me out?</p>

<p>Coaches, in general, tell the the best possible story. If you're at the top of their list, they'll surely tell you. And take a hard look at if your sport is money maker. Track is not. Count on less than more. Without a caoch pulling you in, Yale is unlikely.</p>

<p>I second Suze, good luck :)</p>

<p>Apply. Worst that happens is you don't get in.</p>

<p>might as well try- its a crapshoot but i think you have a better chance than most</p>
