<p>My advice would be to really focus on this years grades and the SAT. I know it sounds stupid, but don’t settle for Bs. Straight Bs might not be that bad, but if you are really serious about getting the GPA up then don’t slack off.</p>
<p>Trust me, I slacked off a lot junior and senior year, and my GPA went from 4.9 W to 4.5 W. That sounds okay, except it cost me my reach schools.</p>
