<p>I’m anxious because my GPA is 3.2 with a definite upward trend. (2.7 Freshman year and much better afterwards.) My school resists grade inflation so that the school profile states that the average GPA of all the students in the school is 2.6. The school doesn’t rank but does send a chart that shows that my 3.2 is at the bottom of the top third. </p>

<p>SATs 550. 650. 650</p>

<p>Good EC’s, Great recs</p>

<p>I want to study Human Factors, a major offered at very few schools.</p>

<p>Do you think I have a chance?</p>

<p>I would say that you have a definite chance. Do apply! I don't think,however, that you will get any merit scholarship. You aren't in the top 25% of their applicant pool.</p>
