I will have a GPA of about 3.5 when I graduate if everything goes as planned. Most of my bad grades were in my freshman year with a few B’s and C’s this year (junior year). I realize that this is horrible but would a school such as MIT be willing to accept me if I excelled on everything else like the SAT and extracurricular activities. I really want to go so I would be willing to put in the effort if there is a way.
