Hi Linda, thanks for responding. No, I did not have a positive trend throughout my undergrad and have not received any further certification.

Harvard, Berkeley, MIT, UCLA, USC

You're right that your GPAis your biggest weakness and it's something you should address in optional essays when given the chance.

IN terms of schools, HBS, Haas, and MIT are stretches. Your chances are better at UCLA and USC. I think you should also strongly consider Duke. Perhaps also look into Cornell, Yale, and Ross.

Best,
Linda
