<p>i dont remember my final average for freshman year,
but i took:
business law (elective)
spanish 2
earth science
english,
global 1,
gym/earth science (labs)
geometry</p>
<p>sophmore year i was in an American international school in nigeria. i had a 3.3 gpa for the first semester . took:
french 1 (this was the only language course they had)
algebra 2/ trig
religion
english 2
gym
global 2
biology
chorus
honors/AP classes were given ONLY for junior/senior students. if i had been in america i wouldve been in AP english and AP global.
this is where the problems started. my parents moved me to a local school . and by local i mean an all girls convent school.. the curriculum is a LOT different. we had to take biology, chem and physics all at once ( but they do it for 3 years ) . i had taken
biology ( and therefore finished the course)
chem ( half year)
physics (half year)
govt (half)
algebra 2/trig ( therefore finishing the course)
algebra1 (again)
home ec
english (finished course)
religion (finished course)
their grading system is ANCIENT ! they did it by hand, and since i came in the second semester, i had no idea what they were doing. and average? either 56 or 66 i dont remember. no one ever gets above an 80 apparently and their passing grade is 50.
And in this school there were no such thing as honors classes</p>
<p>im trying to make up for my grades by doing eveything i can this year and senior year. So i have no idea how this will look in my application. so how do i explain this to the admissions people?</p>
<p>umm classes im taking this year:
Us history
spanish 3 honors
english
College Pre Calc
religion
physics
health/gym</p>
<p>HELP ?!?!
Sidenote: ive been in 4 different highschools in 3 years. i hope this wont affect anything?</p>
