Will bad sophomore grades ruin my chances?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I just finished my junior year and I'm starting to look at colleges, and right now my top choices are UPenn and Cornell for computer science. Sophomore year my grades slipped a little but they were fantastic junior year, so I'm wondering how much this will affect my chances at these Ivy League schools. Here's my stats</p>

<p>Grades (unweighted)
Freshman year: 94.3
Sophomore year: 91.2 (and a B In AP World..)
Junior Year: 97.5
And I took all honors and AP, basically the most rigorous schedule my school offers.</p>

<p>SAT: 2220 overall (800 math, 710 verbal, 710 writing)
Subject Tests: going to take math 2, physics, and us history</p>

<p>Also I play varsity volleyball and am involved in a couple clubs, though I'm not going to go lost them all. Also have a good amount of service, have had a job for the last year, and will do a computer science related internship this summer.</p>

<p>Will my bad sophomore year be too much to overcome??</p>

<p>Do you know your class rank?</p>

<p>so your overall average looks like a 94-95. I’m guessing that it translates to about a 3.7 ish?</p>

<p>3.7 – 2200.
ECs Vollyball good, Internship good.</p>

<p>You’re in the range. It would be nice if the numbers were a little better, but they’re ok.</p>

<p>Basically, Penn accepts many students with stats similar to yours, and rejects many students with stats similar to yours. So, it’s worth applying, and that’s allyou can really do.</p>
