<p>My GPA took somewhat of a nosedive Sophomore year due to my mother, father and grandmother undergoing serious surgery within a month span. I plan on writing my common app essay about these events. My Junior year average was a 91.0 (3.6 GPA).</p>

<p>I know that my SAT scores are low. Lately, my reading score has improved, so hopefully that will translate on the actual test!</p>

<p>Your GPA looks good, average…especially since you’re taking APs/honours. SATs are a bit low. Try to boost your M(!)+CR up to 1300, esp if you’re applying to Watson (assuming Watson from major). Your ECs are great though so even if your scores are on the lower side, they’ll definitely help. Also I’d suggest applying EA (can’t hurt)</p>
