<p>i think it's going to be a stretch.</p>

<p>Great ECs but the GPA and SAT might hold you back...</p>

<p>Possibly retake the SAT?</p>

<p>i was thinking the same thing but im hoping for the ACT that i took in Oct to help me ._.</p>

<p>thanks for your tips</p>

<p>btw stretch as in 1% chance D:?</p>

<p>It's going to be pretty hard, since JHU focuses on GPA above all else.</p>

<p>uh, i think the ED rate is like 40%? So for you, maybe like 20-25%? Your GPA is incredibly low. You still have a year to go, so retake the SAT I, bring it up to about 2100, and you have a decent shot.</p>

<p>hmm i figured that it would be near to impossible due to my GPA but i tried to compensate as much with EC and i read on the collegeboard search that 3.0 - 3.4 gpa has like 20% of the total acceptance so im just hoping - like all of us who applies to college :3</p>
