Cheating my way into college?

Question

I'm not actually cheating sorry.........if i'm in hs and i start taking college courses on the weekend to get ealry college credit, will that increase my chances greatly of getting in esp. if i am a "C+" student and do alot of extracurricular activites.

Answer 1

study, study, study!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 2

study hard. try to get ur gpa up. taking college courses on ur own time or testing out of one class to take the next grade until ur taking an ap class as a senior really impresses college people cuz it shows u take the initiative to work hard.

Answer 3

taking college courses when you have a HS average of C+ is not going to impress a college. if you are barely passing in HS, what makes you think you can excel in college? you have to knuckle down in hs, focus on the work there, then think about college. good luck!

Answer 4

The community college will always take you. That's when you need to make a few good grades. Then you apply for transfer. You always have that option. Try to get the best SAT scores that you can, and if you get rejected from some four year colleges just go the cc. Then boost yourself up then you can transfer. You'll be able to work with the situation.

Answer 5

you should really rethink about just studying more to be able to get good grades. i'm not sure if the college of your choice in the future will accept your college courses' units in the first place... if you're a c+ student, and you do lots of other work, you should try concentrating on school and lesser activities--select which few ones you enjoy most.

Answer 6

Although taking college credit MIGHT impress admissions office, there's a good chance that they won't count it as a credit, depending on where you took the course and what course it is. You would also have to get good grades in these courses.

But it won't do you any good if your GPA is an average of 2...

So I would just focus on school work and ACT/SAT.
