They should not be crushed just yet. Colleges will know that your high school is one of the top ones in the nation and that should help significantly with your low gpa. For instance, at my high school, which is ranked 134th in the nation, the average UW GPA for Ivies such as UPenn, Dartmouth, Cornell, Brown, and Columbia, is a 3.6-3.7. Colleges know how tough schools are.
