<p>How hard is it to raise a GPA during junior year, say a 3.5??</p>

2

<p>Depends… where are you starting from?</p>

3

<p>a 3.5…</p>

4

<p>you pretty much need straight A’s and even that can’t bring it up too high I dont think higher than a 3.7</p>

5

<p>How bad of a gpa is that if I’m applying to wharton as a urm first gen college student?</p>

6

<p>You could probably get in with a 3.5 if you’re an URM & first generation. You’d need to have pretty good ECsthough.</p>

7

<p>^ Test scores would be highly important as well.</p>

<p>Wow, a case when test scores actually matter… From my won experience, solid test scores won’t make up for a dip in GPA, but then I’m Asian, so the competition was fierce anyway. :P</p>

<p>As long as you work hard and you’re dedicated, I think you still have a shot. Good luck.</p>
