<p>Low Sophomore GPA due to tragic incident [nuclear family member death]
Junior yr 1st semester: Struggled with work load first semester... 3.5W
Second: 4.5 </p>

<p>Assuming I write my essay in an awesome way without including pity, etc.
Apply super early</p>

<p>...What are my chances?
Thanks</p>

<p>have you already applied? bc you really need to, i’m guessing 1/4-1/2 of the class is already filled. i think you have great stats except for the low GPA, but i think once they realize your situation they will understand. sorry about the tragedy. sounds like a great essay though, i think you’re in. good luck!</p>

<p>nice ACT, i think you’re fine</p>
