I kept a steady GPA of 3.9 (about 95% average) all throught my freshman and sophomore years.. but this year I'm a junior, and I have received a shocking GPA of 3.65 for this semester. I have two more semesters before I apply to college.. the fact that this year is the crucial year concerning my future is bothering me to the extreme. If I receive min 4.1 GPA for the remaining semesters, is that enough for me to get into the ivys?
I know that grades aren't everything.. but I'm attending a small private school with not many opportunities.
I'm quite talented in art and I've done lots of activities related to that, and I've received an award as the top artist out of the whole high school.. and I'm in NHS, delegate of MUN, do charity stuff, run a club of my own, and I also teach violin for beginners. I also take a variety of courses and extra APs.. Do I have a chance?
