<p>Is this a bad course load to present to the colleges? I have a weighted GPA of 3.5 and an unweighted of around a 3.0, which is awful I know, but I have dealt with SIGNIFICANT challenges throughout my life, which are explained to the colleges by the guidance counselor). I have amazing recommendations, and I have done five interviews for Smith, Uchicago, Bryn Mawr, Barnard and Wellesley. I have excellent EC's.
