<p>I’ll definitely look into some more of the lesser known publics and apply there. I’m worried because I moved my junior year and my GPA took a hit. My cumulative GPA for both freshman and sophomore year was a 3.5, but when I moved to a new school, the curriculum was WAY more rigorous and I ended up with a 2.78 GPA for junior year because I wasn’t used to the rigor and thought I could hold down all honors and 3 APs with the same effort as my underclassmen years. </p>
