Mid Year Report Importance for Virginia Tech?

<p>I have a Weighted GPA of 3.58, with Freshman year as a 3.7, Sophomore as a 3.3, and Junior year as a 3.7, including a middle school and online government course. So far from what I know, I think I have all As on my midyear and one B+, where I take four IB Courses, 1 AP, and 3 electives. My 1st semester GPA is around a 4.5, more or less.
Will Virginia Tech/James Madison or any other college really consider my improvement? Especially increasing my overall workload (since i didn't take IB/honors until Junior Year, where I only took 2.)? Yeah, I'm just really nervous and I depending on these grades to pull me through to at least Virginia Tech University studies. Thank you for the feedback.</p>

<p>Yes, absolutely your upward trend is considered. Make sure that your counselor sends the mid-years promptly and maybe notes the improvement as well. It can’t hurt :). Good luck!</p>
