<p>I go to a competitive high school in the Northeast (out of state, obvs), and I am in the top 25%. My GPA for each year is as follows (unweighted/weighted):
Frosh: 3.2/3.2
Soph: 3.8/4.0
Junior: 3.6/4.1</p>

<p>My frosh GPA was that low because I was going through an emotional conflict, so I had to miss a few weeks of school. I completely solved this conflict and turned my life around (and my grades reflect this). I would talk about this on the Special Circumstances section of the app. I also won an award for this (along with 7 other awards in my time in high school). My SAT scores are as follows:
CR: 620
Math: 610
Writing: 650</p>

<p>I would say 85% chance of getting in. I just read that info yesterday, I believe, on Ohio State University's forum. :D</p>

<p>Hah, ya caught me. I wanted to find out my chances at all the schools I applied to.</p>

<p>I think you have a pretty good chance. The only thing that may hurt you is you only have one AP, but your EC's and service should pull you through. Good luck!</p>

<p>One AP class might not hurt him if his school only offers one AP class. Depending on what rigorous classes his school offers, he will be judged in that way, accordingly. For instance, my school only offers two AP classes and about 8-10 honors classes. If I don't have about 10 AP classes like student X does, but I have taken the most difficult classes my school offers, then I will be examined similarly. I might have a disadvantage for not having more AP classes, but it won't be a great factor because a student cannot control what his school has to offer him.</p>

<p>Yeah, I think you're in. I got in EA, and I'd only taken three APs.</p>
