Low GPA, extremely difficult course work. Any chance for Ivy League???

<p>I want to make this quite clear: The purest of pity will not get you into college. </p>

<ol>
<li><p>I’m sorry for the difficulty of your life. But colleges don’t accept people based on how how well they would’ve done in perfect circumstances; rather how they DID.</p></li>
<li><p>Don’t be arrogant on this site. If you want an answer free of criticism/negative determinations, ask someone who knows you and loves you.We’re just trying to give you a real answer.</p></li>
<li><p>Colleges don’t want an SAT score. They want a person. this may be your downfall.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>I’m sorry for the harshness, but I feel that you need it.</p>
