<p>Unfortunately, my GPA at the end of my junior year would be a 2.3 and around a 2.8 at the end of my senior year. I have showed a lot of improvement. My grades freshmen year were 65s - 75s and my grades now (junior year) are 85s - 100s. My grades were slipping because I had numerous eye surgeries. Would the admissions board take my improvement into consideration? Also, if I scored pretty high on my SATs, like a 1,900+, do you think I'd have a chance? I got a 1,500 on my PSAT without making much effort and I'm positive I can get at least an 1,900+ on the SAT. I've been studying and taking a lot of practice test so I should be prepared for when I do take the SAT (May and October). I could get amazing recommendation letters from more than three teachers and I'm an awesome writer so the essay shouldn't be a problem. Also, I'm Hispanic if that makes any kind of difference. I don't want you to sugarcoat it, I just need a blunt, accurate answer please! Thank you. :)</p>
<p>It’s hard to say, but the application is MUCH more than just grades. I suggest you apply and include an excellent personal statement, try to do good on your SAT and highlight any extracurricular qualifications you may have.</p>
<p>Stony gives special cOnsideration to kids who have alot of extracurriculars so that would help. I think you have a chance. Good luck!</p>
