<p>College: Johns Hopkins University, Choice #: 1, ED/EA: Yes, Athlete: No, Legacy: No, Status: Will Apply</p>

<p>I am applying ED to Johns Hopkins University
I am applying regular to Reed, Tufts, Haverford, and University of MD College Park.
I am thinking about majoring in physics and mathematics or another physical science but you never know...</p>

<p>Hit me with it as hard as you can.</p>

<p>Your regular decision choices look good, you will get into MD. The rest are definate matches. Your gpa seems a little low for JHU but for ED you get that commitment bonus. I'd say there is a 35-40% chance you get in early to JHU.</p>

<p>Thanks Euler. Is that your name or are you a fan of him?</p>

<p>any1 else?</p>

<p>Everything looks good except your gpa. How does your gpa system work? A 5.0 weighted gpa, but only a 3.44 UW?</p>

<p>Our GPA system goes up to 6. Standard classes are out of 4, honors are out of 5, and gt/ap are out of 6.</p>
