Applying to College

<p>I personally think you have a good chance at Boston University</p>

<p>I wanted to know my changes</p>

<p>i have an unweighted GPA of 2.8 and a weighted of 4.0
i have taken all honors and AP classes
my sat is a 1200/1820</p>

<p>i have a REALLY long list of EC's from national swimmer to nationally accredited piano player</p>

<p>my essay was check by 3 college advisors, it was about my struggle with dyslexia and adhd and how i have grown from it and enhanced my thirst to learn.</p>

<p>i know my GPA is low, but i feel as though when the admissions people at BU read my struggle and how no one was there to accompany me or facilitate me they will see the my 5 c's on my transcipts are because of my struggle with numbers.</p>

<p>Chance me please</p>

5

<p>If there is an interview, try to explain them everything.</p>

<p>If you are weighting Honors courses, then I don’t think you have a great shot, and I can’t imagine how one gets from 2.8 to 4.0 without weighting Honors.</p>

<p>What is your Weighted GPA counting <em>only</em> AP courses as weighted?</p>

7

<p>no my WEIGHTED gpa with honors and AP classes is a 4.0</p>

<p>my UNweighted which is JUST the courses as if they were regular is 2.9 (went up with senior grades)</p>

<p>however my essay was amazing and i hear BU is all about the essay, also i can afford the school with out financial aid so does that help me too</p>

8

<p>Most colleges don’t accept weight on honors classes. How much weight does your school give on honors and AP classes?</p>

9

<p>my weighted gpa is 4.0 end of story</p>

<p>with the stats i posted first can i atleast be considered for CGS???</p>

10

<p>I think everyone is trying to tell you that colleges won’t consider your weighted GPA a 4.0 since most DON’T weight honors classes. Recalculate with grades plus AP only and THAT is what colleges will consider your weighted GPA.</p>

11

<p>i went to my counsler and he said with AP classes like you are all saying i even showed him this post and he said it is. exactly a 4.01 so with that can some one please im begging tell me my chance even for CGS?? please im dying just let me know</p>

12

<p>please, someone in CGS has a low gpa atleast right? im just dying i mean by SAT/ACT scores arent bad at all!</p>

13

<p>Your weighted GPA means little because each high school weights differently.
I don’t think you have much chance at selective colleges with < 3.0 UW. Maybe if you’re
a URM.</p>

14

<p>i know but my essay is amazing and my scores are good so doesnt that but me somewhere close to CGS?</p>

15

<p>There is always a chance! Their accepted students glass range from 2.5-4.0. If ur essay is as good as u say it is then in even better chance u have do u have a lot of extracirrular activities or sports any leadership positions nythin to make u stand out?</p>
