<p>wow jhu, doesn’t look at freshman year? Damn, if thats the case, I am screwed…</p>

<p>as for chances, your high school schedule is riogours, BC your sophmore year, I am only taking that my senior year…you need to bring up the math and wrting, if you get around a 700 in each of thse sections, your chances are much better…</p>

<p>I don’t think applying as a math major will necessarily be to your advantage, because JHU doesn’t admit people based on their major (unless we’re talking about BME). There’s no quota for math majors or bio majors at all. They’re great grades, but there’s no actual “advantage” based on your major.</p>

<p>You seem to have good chances, though. But why did you calculate your GPA without freshman year? Is this something new that I’m missing, even as an ED-admitted student?</p>
