I'd like to point out that my freshman grades are lacking, but my sophomore and junior grades are MUCH higher. Also, The 4.0 GPA scale I calculated was according to:</p>

<p>A = 4.0
A- = 3.7 and so on</p>

<p>I would have a 3.8/4.0 from sophomore/junior year.
If it was according to:</p>

<p>A = 4.0
B = 3.0 and so on</p>

<p>I would have a 3.93/4.0 from sophomore/junior year. It really is my freshman year grades that are dragging me down. </p>

<p>honestly, what people say on this website are not going to help your chances. They will either feed your ego or make you feel dejected. Either way, your chances of admission stand as it is. </p>

<p>But since I am on this site, I will give you my penny. you definitely have a chance for ED, good luck.</p>
