I will be going to a 4th tier school this fall. This is depressing me more every day that passes. Why? Well with the grades I got in High School that is not the place nor the people I should be studying with. I passed ten AP classes and took three more AP classes but didn't take the test in May. I am tri-lingual and my ***. unweighted gpa was 3.81. I got a 26 on my ACT and a 1,760 on my SAT. I got a 760 on my SAT Subject Spanish and a 590 on my US History SAT. I was president of French and Spanish Club. Academic All American in Debate as well as taking 2nd and 1st (junior and then senior respectively) place impromptu in the state debate meet as well as qualifying twice for NFL debate nationals and competing once. I was one of the school newspaper editors, member of National Honors Society, run track & field sophomore year, cross country junior year. Completed many hours of service with my local food bank.
I could go on for a few more lines but I think I made my point. I am getting close to starting college but this doesn't sound like the college experience everyone talks about. With the demographics of the school that I will go to being over 70% black with an average gpa of 2.3 I want to kill myself already.
Why did I not go to a better school, not because I didn't get accepted bec. University of Santa Clara, University of San Francisco, Tufts University, University of Utah, University of Michigan and New York University all accepted me. The problem is that none offered enough financial aid so that I could go there.
Help me with suggestions. WHAT CAN I DO TO CALM MYSELF????
