I'm going to be a junior in high school and I was looking to go to Notre Dame since I went to high school. My GPA is a 4.1, the bad part is that my class is one of the smartest to go through our school. In any other class I would be in the top 5% of the class but now I'm like top 20%. So it sucks and is really hurting my chances to get in. I wish they looked more at our interest of going there! I would be accepted in a heartbeat!!! I'm just hoping since my sister attends ND now they will consider that a legacy and hopefully it helps. I also I'm studying hard to do well on my ACT. It's been my goal and every morning I wake up to a poster of the Golden Dome to serve as a reminder to try hard to get there. If I dont get in I will be disappointed but I just have to remember that the sun will still come up and look elsewhere.
