Yes, they will ask for midyear grades for all who do not get a big scholarship. We really don’t know how much they will weigh those grades. But the good thing you have going for you is your tough class schedule. Admissions will take that into consideration when evaluating your grades. I wouldn’t mention the school problems.

I read your previous chance threads. Someone should have told you that your gpa and test scores are slightly below the average for last year’s admits but you are in the mean range so you have a shot.

But the best thing to do is don’t get caught up in anyone’s opinion here, including mine. There is no one here in the know! Have faith and it will all work out. Good luck!
