Northeastern chance. High ACT; low GPA?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I'm a junior and I have a 3.9 GPA average.
All of my classes are nothing special. No Honors or Advanced Placement classes. I take the same classes the rest of the juniors take. I never took school seriously and I rejected offers being moved into Honors and AP classes because I didn't want to work hard. But when I started my junior year, I realized my mistake. I regret my decision but I am planning to take AP classes for my senior year. Hopefully it's not too late...
Anyway, I took the ACT. I got a 30. Do you think good schools [my dream school is Northeastern University] would accept me with the good ACT score, despite the level of the classes I took?
I am hearing impaired. Not meaning to take advantage of my disability but I assume that would give me a higher chance since many schools want diversity.</p>

<p>What do you guys think?</p>

<p>Really? I’ve heard some people whose schedules crammed full of AP and Honors classes got rejected. But thanks.</p>

<p>r u serious. I know people from my school that have 3.2-3.5’s get in. But NE like’s my school. But still you need a 3.51 gpa… your fine! It’s my safety honestly</p>

<p>Northeastern had a 38% acceptance rate in 2010 because a lot of kids think it is easy to get into. Mid 50% for SAT is 1880 to 2080, 28-32 for the ACT.</p>

<p>I’d give you a 90% shot of getting in.</p>
