<p>So, basically, I have a slightly different story.</p>
<p>In the middle of sophomore year I was diagnosed with ADD (both types) and subsequently began treatment. My freshman year GPA was a 3.8/5, my first semester soph year was the same.</p>
<p>The second semester of soph year was incredibly improved. I had a 4.75/5.00 and scored a 230 on my PSAT (I've always been smart, just distracted).</p>
<p>Junior year, I was able to keep up a 4.8 GPA. 1st sem senior year was a 4.8 as well.</p>
