I will be rushing as a soph at a competitive SEC school. I have a very high gpa from high school and high act/sat scores. It took me doing poorly fall semester of my freshman year to figure out how to succeed in college. My spring semester I finished with above a 4.00 (president's list.) However, my overall gpa for freshman year is only slightly above a 3.00. I am outgoing and involved in ECs. I am concerned about how much that first semester grades will hurt me. Should I bring up the subject during recruitment? Will I already be cut because of it? Thank you.
