<p>So here's the deal- currently, at the end of junior year, my grades have been on a downward trend. From freshman year my GPA (unweighted) has been as follows:
9th grade: 3.83/3.96 (Few A-'s in each semester)
10th grade: 4.0/4.0<br>
This year: 3.75/3.75 (Multiple A-'s both semester, B's in first semester/ taking 6 AP courses)
For those of you with experience, is this a considerable downward trend, and would it affect my chances if I'm aiming for a top tier college?
Thank you in advance</p>
<p>Pfft, no, it’s not a huge downward trend. It’s negligible at best. I don’t think it’ll hurt you at all.</p>
<p>A major downward trend would be something like 3.9 to 3.0.</p>
