<p>First this is advice to see where I stand college application wise, I don't want chances yet until I receive my next round of ACT scores (trying to rise it a few points, but right now it's still good. I'm just trying to make it to 31). I am also going to take the SAT in November and I'm expecting to do well. </p>
<p>Also, I have a 3.85 UW (The last time I got B's were freshman year in only 2 classes and I got one in 8th grade taking a high school course and didn't know how to study for exams then... Besides that all A's in my honors courses and currently all A's in my current courses including the AP ones) </p>
<p>I am still in the top 10% of my class even though I was gone a year. Before I was ill, I was #12 in my class of over 400, but I went considerably down, but enough to still be in the top 10%.</p>
<p>The School I'm applying ED2 at Emory. Emory takes course rigor highly into consideration.</p>
<p>I was sick most of my junior year so I had to drop out of my 4 AP's (I had A's in all of them) and do a bunch of honors courses online at FLVS and a tiny bit of homebound courses and I had to retake PRE Calc again (this time I'm taking it online) since i never took 1st semester exam (I got sick a few weeks before exams). If I wasn't sick last year, I would have been in AP Calc, but now I have to complete pre-calc all over again and I'm hoping to be done by January.</p>
<p>I hope they can take my sickness into consideration, not my fault obviously....</p>
<p>Emory will see me have about 17-19 honors courses in high school, a few electives (not to many), 1 AP previous to senior year, and 2 that I'm taking as a Senior. Ah.... 4 more AP classes would have been added if I wasn't sick. And I was getting A's in them too.</p>
<p>My rigor Freshman and Sophomore Years were high so I'm not worried about those.</p>
<p>Here's my senior schedule:
AP ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE
AP PSYCHOLOGY
ECONOMICS HONORS
ENGLISH 4 HONORS
VIRTUAL SCHOOL (PRE-CALC HONORS) -- ACTUALLY TAKING IT IN SCHOOL. I was in AP CHEM, but even though I had an A, me and my whole class dropped it because the teacher was horrible and didn't know what was going on. There is like 12 students left in AP CHEM at my school and there was 21.
Culinary 1 (needed it to graduate and Emory requires it/requires a full arts credit)
Teacher's Assistant. (Half book work and tests, half assisting teachers, my parents made me do this lol)</p>
<p>My parents didn't want me to put on a crazy load like usual because I was adjusting going back to school after being sick.</p>
<p>If I would have known I was going to drop AP CHEM, I would have taken Marine Science Honors.... oh well..... Sucks to be me....</p>
<p>I have all A's and if anyone says AP Envi. is easy, well my teacher makes it really hard. 2 kids have A's in my class of 30 and I'm one of them.</p>
<p>I want to show colleges I have all A's right now, so I will send my quarter grades and semester grades if ready in time.</p>
<p>I am writing this in the personal statement spots on my applications to explain my situation. I have written on my UF app so far since they had a spot (and I'm guessing the others have a spot too)... but haven't submitted the app itself yet.</p>
<p>"During my Junior year, I became ill and had to drop out of my current classes at the time and take homebound courses (which didn't offer honors or AP courses), and 4 honors courses on FLVS. Before all of this, I was in 4 APs and 3 honors, but unfortunately I became sick a few weeks before the semester ended/exams. 1st quarter of these grades I received all A's. I had no time to take previous or new AP courses because by the time treatment ended, I wouldn't have them complete in time for the AP exams. I am currently finishing up pre-calc honors on FLVS, a course I was in last year. I am now back this year to a normal schedule of a mixture of electives, honors, and AP Courses."</p>
<p>Sorry if I sound anxious and worried, just getting overwhelmed with stress about what colleges will think of my situation.</p>
