<p>I just finished junior here here in America and I just found out my GPA:
3.5 UW
4.6 W
I really don't get how my GPA could jump so much
Do you think I just threw away my chances at the Ivy League and other top notch schools?
Also, this is my first year in an American school (I came from India before) and I asked an adcom at an info session whether or not they would consider the geographical change when assessing my application and they said "of course." Is this true?</p>

<p>For top 20 schools, yes. Forget about it. But there’s plenty of other first-rate schools that you could get into. Use the College Search tool on CC to help you find good matches. Here’s a link:</p>

<p>It won’t have a big enough impact to make or break the decision.</p>
<p>Good luck with everything.</p>
<p>Well,
my standardized testing isn’t that bad
SAT I: 2220
SATII Bio M: 780
SATII Math Level 2: 800</p>
<p>And I’ve got phenomenal ECs
I just don’t wanna give up on the top 20</p>
<p>What is your rank? Where do kids with your GPA usually end up from your school? It’s hard for us to evaluate your GPA without context.</p>
<p>^That’s true…</p>
<p>Rank please? What type of school? :)</p>
