<p>you sound like you have a decent chance but if i were you i would have talked about briefly somwhere about your g.p.a. because it seems to be worrying you. just an op. it’s pretty easy to explain, you were to busy running the yearbook, working, participating in sports, and to do all the work. look they don’t expect superman (despite what many people many think) but they do expect a person. they expect you to feel bad or wish you could have kicked some more butt on your g.p.a. so explain in a line or two in add info if it really floats your boat. if not, totally understandable because i think you still have a fairly decent shot as it is (remember no one can really be a shoe in anyway). good luck!</p>
