<p>I had a 2.0 in high school for some certain reasons, which I have a good explanation for. At community college I have approximately a 3.7 in 70 semester hours where I have taken Calc I and II, Physics w/lab, Chemistry w/lab, Elementary German I and II, Intermediate German I and II, and nearly all of the general education requirements I attend the University of Miami where I pulled a 3.3 with 15 semester hours for the one semester I was there. However, I had to leave due to something personal and the dean as well as the president said they are going to be writing me outstanding letters of recommendations to whatever school I wish to attend. I also have superior extracurricular activities, leadership positions held, president of clubs, and other significant letters of recommendations from professors and such. Do you think they will be willing to overlook my poor high school performance, and do you think I have a good shot for admission assuming I have good essays, etc? I have never had less than a B in college.</p>
<p>i dont see why any colleges would consider taking a look at your high school grades especially since you: 1. went to a cc, and 2. went to U of M. i would think they would be more interested in the grades from the CC and U of M.</p>
<p>do you think i'm a pretty competitive applicant? i'm assuming they'd glance at the transcript which looks very bad...but wouldn't you think my strong college performance shows my ability? as well as the strong reccomendations from university dean and president, and all of my ec's?</p>
<p>well i'm only entering college so i have no idea what you mean by "semester hours" but from your grades (from what i understand), ec's, letters of rec, i would suppose you're a strong candidate. and i still dont think they would look at your high school stuff</p>
<p>thanks for the input</p>
<p>according to USC they will only evaluate and take into account your highschool grades if you have under 30 units completed. Sounds like you have way more than that so I wouldn't worry about it</p>
