<p>The GPA’s a bit low for these schools, but you’ve got good extracurriculars and test scores - I’d say it’s worth it to take a shot. What major are you applying for? </p>
<p>Hi natehunawan, I am still considering! But most likely, economics and finance/philosophy with a minor in classics. But depending on the school, this have to change. I cant imagine such a courseload in UChi</p>
<p>Would it help to know that my GPA is post-streaming? Between what you guys would call middle school and high school, we have a streaming process where more academically inclined students are group together and graded as such, thus my GPA is not reflected of the entire school population, but more against my academically-inclined peers. </p>
