<p>So I'm going to into my junior year and yes, I'm already stressed about college. I just had a lot of questions so here I go....</p>
<ol>
<li>My GPA is not all too stellar. I got all As in my freshman year except for one C in my Geometry class. I struggled a lot in that class and school was especially tough for me that year because of a medical condition that was undiagnosed. I always received straight As before that and my C was a shock. This year I got all As except for a B+ in math. This also upset me because I was a very very very close to an A. I don't have numbers for my GPA yet but I will be calling my school to get a number. My GPA is scaring me a lot so I was wondering, will it make a very very serious impact on my chances at good schools? I take all honors classes and always have. </li>

<li>Extracurricular </li>
</ol>
<p>I have been on the quiz team (only 10 people are allowed on after tryouts) for two years.
I have been a member of Annenberg Science Symposium for two years.
I am a member of a few other clubs such as the Global Responsibility Group but the two former groups for the most important to me.<br>
I am very likely to get the position of captain for the quiz team and the position of president for Annenberg during my senior year.
I work started working at Kumon this year and plan on working there for the next two years.
I have not started volunteering yet but I am looking forward volunteering with the local fire and ambulance service in addition organizations for women and refugees this summer. </p>
<ol>
<li>Scores </li>
</ol>
<p>I know it's early, but I haven't taken any tests yet. I did take the PSAT this year without studying at all and was able to get a 192. I hadn't even looked at what the SAT or PSAT looks like before taking the test. I was pretty much winging it blindly. Planning to study a lot for upcoming tests in October. </p>
<ol>
<li>Awards. </li>
</ol>
<p>I have ranked top 10 nationally for the National French Award for the last 3 years. I also ranked for the National Spanish Exam this year and it was my first time taking the NSE.
I was finalist in a Nicolas Kristof essay contest. I am told that I write well but in my personal opinion, I want to rip up everything I write. We'll see how my essays go.
I plan on entering more contests but we'll see how everything turns out. </p>
<ol>
<li>Personal Information
I come from a low-income household but my school district is very fortunate and many people apply to top schools from my school. In other words, lots of competition. I am also Bengali. </li>
</ol>
<p>Final notes: Yes, it's very very early to start worrying so much but I really need some sort of guidance. I'm slightly lost and would greatly appreciate any sort of feedback. Thank you.....</p>
<p>Edit to my title: A lot of questions*</p>
