Virginia Tech</p>

<p>My prospective major and minor: Major in Computer Science; Minor in Japanese Language and Culture</p>

<p>9th Grade Results:</p>

<p>Afro-Asian Cultures: 91%

Spanish II: 85%

<p>Thanks again for your help.</p>

<p>You have just finished your freshman year. It's really too early to tell. Pull up your average and stick with your ECs. Don't worry about college just yet.</p>

<p>Thank you for the reply. How far will I have to pull up my grades to be able to have a matching chance at the schools I listed above?</p>

<p>Thanks again.</p>

<p>GPA averages are worthless, i dont know why people look at them. Would you rather someome with a 3.0 GPA from Gilman, Gtown Prep, or any school like that or someone with a 4.0 from one of marylands many bad public schools?</p>
