Freshman year importance?

<p>I got a B freshman year (as did basically everyone else) and a C on a class I was placed in due to error first semester.
First semester gpa: 3.6
Second semester: 3.8 </p>

<p>Do these freshman year grades really matter?</p>

<p>Depends on the school. For UCs, CSUs, Stanford and McGill, no. However, there are other schools that will care about freshman year.</p>

<p>I’m in the same situation. Got 4 Bs freshman year so a 3.88 with, 3.96 without freshman year -____- puts me barely top 10%</p>

<p>I meant i got a b in honors english (you don’t get the extra grade point though). Almost everyone else in my class got a B or lower</p>
