<p>Hello everyone, can freshman grades hurt you in the college application procces? For top tier schools like Cornell and Rice.</p>
<p>Well i had horrible grades during freshman year. But better grades in sophmore year like all A's and 2 B's. And now my grades are fairly better keeping my all A streak with 3 AP classes and honor classes. Also in the future i plan to take 6 AP classes in senior year.</p>
<p>My current GPA is a 3.65 in the 4.0 scale. </p>
<p>If i get a decent ACT score can it help?</p>
