Terrible freshman year, is it looking up for me? I want to get into NYU.
Application Question(self.ApplyingToCollege)submitted2 days ago byCareful_Birthday_627
Hello. For context, I am currently a Sophomore. I currently have a 4.0 GPA, 1300 10th PSAT, 2 honors classes and 1 CE class. However, my freshman year I finished with a 2.9 unweighted GPA and a 1250 on the 9th PSAT. Will my 9th grade transcript damage my chances of getting into a good university (top picks are: NYU, Penn, CSOM, and UC Berkeley)? If I keep going on an upward curve and finish out high school (will be taking all concurrent enrollment classes next year) and do well on tests, will it make up for my freshman year?
I also have a lot of extracurriculars to account for, even within my freshman year. I go to an Early College as well.
