I know i dont have the best of grades but from many stories i heard that minorities are highly selective especialy for madison, due to its low minority rates.

With allot of underlying factors that i have, will madison even consider me?

Main reason why my grades arnt as proficient is because of my uncles illness from fresh-soph year. I had a bad start from my first 2 years but i have really been picking up the pace(from a,b,c’s to almost all A’s right after the end of 1st semester Sophmore year)

Any advice will be greatly appreciated,
ty very much
