<p>You have good ECs and a decent SAT/ACT but your UW GPA is pretty low for Hopkins. I’d try for NYU ED if you can’t get it up a significant amount by the end of the year.</p>

<p>Hey texicus, by significant - what is your range?</p>

<p>& thanks for replying :)</p>

<p>You’re welcome. I would say that if you could get your UW up to maybe a 3.65 or even a 3.7 (i know it’s difficult junior year, I’m in the same boat) your chances with JHU ED would increase significantly. I know a person from my school that got in with around a 3.4-5, but she was a volleyball superstar. Also, keep up the good work with the AP scores. 4s and 5s are big bonuses, especially in tough courses like chem and english.</p>

<p>I don’t think you have that great of a shot JHU but if anything applying Early will give you the best chance. Good luck</p>
