Yo, you would be surprised. A lot of colleges, including IVY LEAGUE colleges, make their selections on ONE thing, and that is APPLICATION ESSAYS! A lot of people don't reaize this. Yes, grades are important, obviously you're not going to get into an ivy league school with a C average, but, if you have an excellent GPA, AND an excellently written essay, you'll be accepted over those with TONS of extra curriculars, and community service.

Basically, if you make a good impression with admissions, you're in.
