<p>like how low.....</p>

<p>does the 3.88 include your recent semester report?</p>
<p>no it does not, is that too low already?</p>
<p>3.88 is a fine GPA, but im assuming that it will drop with the new grades factored into the picture. Do your colleges see your semester grades? If they do, then <em>im sorry</em> this may not be good news. but if they don't see this, then you should be ok. be sure to try and keep it together next semester, though.</p>
