<p>I got two B’s freshman year, will an ivy still accept me based on my gpa.
Unweighted: 3.9</p>
<p>Yes. Be happy.</p>
<p>It was your freshman year so it probably barely matters. Princeton doesn’t even consider your freshman year in their admissions decision.
As long as you can write decent essays, you’re taking a hard course load (which is indicated by your weighted GPA, which in your case is pretty high), and your extracurriculars consist of a little more than video games, you’re still in the running for any Ivy League or Ivy+ of your choice. </p>
<p>I know someone who got a B in a dual enrollment class his junior year (shocking, I know) and still got into Harvard and Columbia. I’ve actually talked to a some Harvard students and some claimed to have had one or two Bs in high school and they weren’t athletic recruits either.</p>
<p>I got into UChicago, a bit less selective than most Ivies, with 4 B’s and I was unhooked. Don’t worry at all.</p>
<p>I know someone who got into Cornell (college of human ecology) unhooked with a C+ her junior year… lol, but you get the point. They understand no one’s perfect.</p>
<p>I’m going to take a slightly different angle from the other responders: there is absolutely no way for us to answer your question. Every school does GPAs differently, and a 4.1, say, means radically different things at different schools. What matters is how your GPA compares to your peers’ (in terms of class rank) and your school’s history with admissions into the Ivies. Your Guidance Counselors should be able to tell you that on average students who got into ivies had 4.8s, in which case you would be at a disadvantage, or 4.4s, in which case you would be in great shape. Good luck.</p>
