<p>I recently found an internship at a local university that I really want to attend, but my GPA is really low</p>
<p>Currently it is a 2.95 unweighted but this was due to the fact that I attended a magnet/specialized school and had trouble adjusting my freshmen year, and now attend my base high school as a sophmore where i get straight A’s and am very involved in extra-curriculars.</p>
<p>I am planning to take the SAT in January to meet the deadline for the program. My average score is around 1800 as a sophmore and I am working to improve upon it and my score is steadily increasing. If I get a good score on the SAT and my teacher recommendation letters are good… can it outweigh or lessen the impact of my poor GPA on the professors that review my application?</p>
<p>Thanks for all your help!</p>
