<p>how did you get an internship at goldman sachs? If it’s through connections, then that won’t be impressive. and ur gpa is really really low, i’m not so sure if your ECs can save you. </p>

<p>Ya I kind of blew off high school but after my gap year I decided that I wanted to start killing it at school and in life. I’m also applying as a junior so I’m hoping they will look more at my college grades than high school. I got the internship at Goldman purely through my own merit though. </p>
