<p>Are you absolutely and completely screwed if you had good years your freshman and sophomore years but had a completely sucky and awful junior year? Can you still be accepted if you have an amazing senior year and do well on the SAT's also that you had a bad year becuase of external family circumstances? Im in desperate need, help.</p>
<p>There are many, many great schools that would love to have you jmarin – believe that OK? The eventual college that confers your BA or BS doesn’t make your future. Just apply yourself to finding a great match for you & don’t succumb to the “rankings” frenzy that is all too prevalent. </p>
<p>Start by talking w/your GC and get his/her advice.</p>
<p>Best of luck to you.</p>
<p>(BTW, I’m an alum of one of the HYP schools)</p>
<p>I’m sure if you talk to your GC and then they explain to the school what happened during your junior year, you’ll be fine.</p>
