gpa hurting, making me nervous

<p>junior year just got a c+ in chem ap…am i out of the picture now for stanford?</p>

<p>nope, they evaluate your application as a whole 1 c will NOT sink it, just be sure to raise it for next semester</p>

<p>what constitutes as a low gpa then…i’ve been looking around the forums and some say that 3.8 is too low while the stanford site says the range is 3.6-4.0</p>

<p>id say be above 3.9</p>

<p>The site says 3.6-4.0 is the normal range of the majority of applicant they accept, that does not mean 3.6 is the cut off.</p>

<p>This was labeled “for counselors” on the Stanford admissions website.</p>

<p><a href=“Page Not Found : Stanford University”>Page Not Found : Stanford University;

<p>There’s a reason why they only show this to counselors-- the GPA numbers are ridiculous.</p>

<p>They may take it down after they notice that students are reading it. Here’s a copy of the info from page 3:</p>
