<p>Hi there,
So I just ended my Junior year (thank god). I'm doing a bunch of college research but I'm kind of scared now. My sophomore year I transferred to a catholic high school and that first semester I got two Cs (English and Algebra 2) I got B's in both classes the next semester and A's my junior year. I keep stressing out b/c there FREAKING C's!!! I don't have Ivy league dreams but still have top schools like UChicago on my dream list. I ended junior year with a 3.8 and over have a overall GPA of 3.5 (i know kind of low). But help should i be stressing? Can I sill get into UChicago, Georgetown, or Fordham with C's or stick to safety schools? </p>
<p>3.5 seems low for Chicago and Georgetown</p>
<p>3.5 is pretty low for UChicago or Georgetown. I won’t say count them out but definitely don’t count on them. Let’s theoretically say you have double the chance of admission at UChicago or Georgetown compared to Princeton (which you wouldn’t), the acceptance rate for your GPA is still only 7%.</p>
