My junior year gpa was a 3.7 while my freshmen and sophomore years were around a 3.5 which is where I did the worst. I hope my course rigor makes up for that In a way? I can say that my reccomendations were both written by teachers that really liked me and I ran my essay through a few Upenn students who gave me good feedback. I am hoping that the fact that I’m a ED student helps in a way too. Thanks for your feed back
