Poor freshman grades, and more than a few incompletes on my transcript...

<p>I am beginning the college admission process and recently requested a copy of my transcript to get a sense of where I am. My freshman grades are awful (2.85 GPA), and I received 3 "I"s my sophomore year before a school change. After the school change however, I have a 4.0 unweighted GPA in both my sophomore and junior years, though I did receive two more "I"s. My course-load has not been rigorous, as I have take no honors or AP classes. My SAT is 2170 on my second try with 780R, 670M, and 720W. My ECs are very weak due to some personal issues.</p>

<p>How do colleges view incomplete grades? </p>

<p>How do colleges view poor freshman grades?</p>

<p>I am aware that I am not tier 1/ivy league college material, but assuming good senior grades do I have a chance at moderately competitive tier 2 colleges?</p>
