Freshman grade

<p>I had a B-, three B, and two A- when I was a freshman (so about GPA 3.4)... I'm a junior now, and my current GPA is 4.0. but the freshman grade is lowering my cumulative GPA... I want to go to UPenn... how important is the freshman grade?</p>

<p>from what i hear, schools like U Penn and other Ivys look at freshman too. Yeah i am in the same situation, I would be getting over 4.0 if not for my freshman year</p>
