!!Is my GPA too low for Ivies!!

Applying to College

<p>Well, I thought my gpa was good enough until today when someone told me it's BAD!
And I am kinda freaking out .. a little bit. </p>

<p>So.. my gpa (senior yr not included) is 4.1 weighted- had 1 ap in junior and 4 in senior, which are not included in 4.1. My school doesn't offer that many ap classes.</p>

<p>My 9-10 grades were good - all As.
My 11th, not so much. Classes got harder, so even tho my weighted is still 4, my unweighted is not so good; in 3 out of 4 core classes, I got A-. My elective classes kinda brought up my junior gpa.. but colleges don't count them right?</p>

<p>All right, I know it would look really silly but since those ppl told me my GPA is not good for ivies, I am getting so worried! I know I can change anything now... but the problem is my senior year GPA would probably go down more due to 4 ap classes with harsh teachers! I am even expecting a B with no A....(ughh unweighted!)</p>

<p>You might say that bunclh of A-s would not matter that much but! I am talking about the top-tier schools :( Please give me an objective evaluation.</p>

<p>What your unweighted GPA?</p>

<p>My unweighted gpa is 3.9 for now. It probably received a a little bit of boost from my junior year elective classes.</p>

<p>it also depends how competitive your school is-- colleges profess to know about schools and how hard they are.</p>

<p>if your sat/ap etc are all good, a slightly low gpa should not matter.</p>

<p>^ my sat score is over 2250, so I guess it’s all right. Oh well… my school doesn’t even rank but I am pretty sure no one at my school gets over 4.2 range.</p>
