I really messed up my freshman year and got a 3.1 GPA.
I worked harder my sophomore year and got a 3.6 GPA, bringing my overall GPA up to a 3.4, but I know that's not good enough.
Junior year I am taking AP classes and am getting really serious about school.. I am hoping to get a 3.9 - 4.0 junior year, which should probably bring me up to about a 3.7? (I think..)
And I'd also get those good grades senior year.
I'm on the girls JV tennis team at my school, and also the boy's varsity golf team. All of the colleges I'm looking at have Div I women's golf teams and I'm hoping to get a scholarship for that. I just started golf this year but have improved extremely fast and am already shooting scores in the 80s which many college teams post.
I'm also in the Interact (community service) Club, my church's youth group, and I submit pieces to my schools literary magazine
I've won several international and national writing contests and I hope to win more
I get A s in english every quarter
I'm hoping to be a journalism or english major in college
I've already taken the SATs for a couple years for practice..in 7th grade I got the highest score in the state on verbal... and on the new SAT I got a 760 critical reading, 790 writing, and 630 math. i got a perfect score on the essay and in my various practice tests I've been projected to get a 800 next time I take the writing section because I got perfect scores on the prac tests..
I got the 99th percentile overall on the PSAT
I'm just afraid my low GPA will bring me down, what do you think my chances are? I don't want to go to URI or anything.
Thanks! :)
