my son had really horrible grades freshman and sophemore years, and was sick and missed 8 weeks of junior year and had to make up a lot in the summer. He is doing very well now, but none of that is on transcript yet. His essays are spretty extraordinary, and test scores quite good,but he is definitely not in the 3.5 category, has a 3.3 last year, but sophemore and junior year are far far worse...we won't even go there... however he is in an intense private prep school where there is no such thing as a weighted grade, all classes are considered ap, but really none are officially, so it is really difficult to judge. We have been looking at the UC, university of California system, and it is really hard to apply because it'sall based on numbers...
