<p>My school doesn't give out my GPA in the 4.0 scale until senior year so I don't know my chances in relation to the average at Gerogetown. Freshman year I got all A's and one B, sophomore year I did terribly and got high B's I'm a junior now and am getting all A's and taking all IB classes.</p>

<p>Freshman and Sophomore Years: All MYP classes (equivalent to honors pre-AP etc.)
Junior Year: all DP IB classes (equivalent to AP)</p>

<p>I do plenty of volunteer service in my community (300+ hours) as a coach for the NAtional Hispanic Institute (training freshmen in debate)
I have played tennis for four year (1 JV, 3 varsity)
Debate (Lincoln Douglas debate and extemporaneous speaking) 3 years
Newspaper 2 years
Yearbook 2 years
Orchestra 2 years
French and Spanish language 4 years</p>

<p>Student council secretary- 2 years</p>

<p>My projected SAT score is 2100</p>

<p>Will my SAT and EC make up for my lagging GPA in comparison to the average for Georgetown? The school I attend has one of the highest (99%) IB passing rates in the world so the classes are a lot more difficult. Any opinions?</p>

<p>It’s way too early to give an opinion, especially based on the limited information available now. You’ll have a better sense when you actually have test scores and your final junior year grades. If forced to give an answer now, I’d say your chances were only fair.</p>

<p>I’m not quite sure what your looking for. NO you shouldn’t apply? Apply if you want. Who cares if people on this site tell you not to.</p>
