<p>You are definitely on the right track, if you pull up your ACT score to a 33+ then your chances will be even greater. Continue getting straight As like you have and also apply ED if you are certain you want to go there because it might help.</p>

3

<p>I am definitely applying EA!</p>

4

<p>Also, I know semester grades go on the transcript. I may have a B on the semester grade, but I am determined to not let it get to final grade. Will it have a huge significance if it doesn’t affect my final A average?</p>

5

<p>No it won’t. One B in one semester is so trivial it shouldn’t matter as long as everything else on your application looks good. Make sure to write a really good essay–emphasize your strengths/passions and how you really want to go to Georgetown. Bear in mind that it is a very competitive school so you still may get rejected (i think they have less than a 20% acceptance rate) but these are the things you can do to boost up your application.</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>Georgetown: Reach (pay attention to the interview; in fact if you score 32-33 it could be brought to a high match if you chose to major in a STEM field instead even though it is not that hard to change major once in college)</p>
