<p>My freshman year I had a really bad year. My cumulative gpa was a 2.1 but I went to summer school got a 3.0 and my gpa increased to a 2.3. Now I'm almost finished with my sophomore year and I my card marking grades are as follows...
1st card marking 3.2
2nd card marking 3.2
1st semester cum. 2.6
3rd card marking 3.7</p>

<p>Does my freshman year grades hinder my entrance into good colleges such as spelman?</p>

<p>Ciara,
You are showing upward mobility which means you are on the right track. Keep those numbers going up. Good luck to you!</p>

<p>Take a look at the CDS for Spellman, specifically C11 that gives you GPA’s </p>

<p>I don’t think so I hear most colleges count the a-g from grades 10-12 but you can get you gpa up by senior year </p>
