<p>I can afford any school i just havent looked into that one.</p>

<p>If i brought up my SAT do you think my chances would change because my gpa isnt goin much higher my freshman gpa was a 3.17 due to family issues. And it has been at a constant increase every semester. Will i have a better chance because of that?</p>

15

<p>Does it help my freshman gpa was 3.17
Sophmore was 3.75
junior was 4.3</p>

<p>It definitely helps that you improved over the years. Usually, applications have a section where you can explain any special circumstances. Explain what happened freshman year. I too had a rough start but eventually got the hang of high school and did pretty darn well.</p>

<p>Where did you end up going?</p>
