gpa hurting, making me nervous

<p>junior year just got a c+ in chem ap...am i out of the picture now for stanford?</p>

<p>nope, they evaluate your application as a whole 1 c will NOT sink it, just be sure to raise it for next semester</p>

<p>what constitutes as a low gpa then...i've been looking around the forums and some say that 3.8 is too low while the stanford site says the range is 3.6-4.0</p>

<p>id say be above 3.9</p>

<p>The site says 3.6-4.0 is the normal range of the majority of applicant they accept, that does not mean 3.6 is the cut off.</p>

<p>This was labeled "for counselors" on the Stanford admissions website.</p>

<p><a href="http://admission.stanford.edu/resources/CounselorsNL_Web.pdf%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://admission.stanford.edu/resources/CounselorsNL_Web.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>There's a reason why they only show this to counselors-- the GPA numbers are ridiculous.</p>
