<p>What is your intended major?</p>

<p>The grades are low, but there is the slight mitigating factor of the upward trend. Your legacy should balance out whatever disadvantage you feel your demographic brings you. Your EC’s seem pretty good, so leverage them as much as possible. Write brilliant essays, and you have a decent shot of getting in ED.</p>

<p>I would say ED is a low reach. Your GPA may hurt you. But the upward trend is good. The paper stuff sounds pretty impressive. Good luck! I hope you get in!</p>
