<p>Alright so I'm a new Junior, graduating in 2015, 16 years old, and I'm starting fresh this year with the mentality that I will get straight A's this crucial year in high school.
So what's my dilemma? Last year, when I was a Sophomore, I had a bit of trouble in two particular classes:
Algebra 2 Honors (ending up with a C) and Chemistry Honors(ending up with a D+)</p>
<p>So as you can see, the second year of high school came with several unexpected events that hit me harder than anything else I had ever dreamed of....High School has its ups as well as its downs!!It was during that dreaded second semester of Sophomore year where my grades plummeted and wrecked up my entire life plan.</p>
<p>I'm flinching as I type due to the fact that my GPA is annoyingly low compared to my high standards. As of now my cumulative GPA is 3.29.</p>
<p>Ugh.</p>
<p>Anyways, let me give you all my transcript, just so you can see where I am.</p>

<p>Algebra 1 Honors-A

<p>Ok so I know I'll take Chemistry Honors again and I'm rooting for an A.
This will bump up my GPA!</p>
<p>So I'm guessing my GPA will be around 3.3-3.5.</p>
<p>So if I keep working my eyeballs off this semester and manage to get A's, it'll go up even more, probably to the 3.5-3.8.</p>
<p>Hopefully 3.8...</p>
<p>That being said, I got a 1750 on my PSAT last year and taking my first SAT on November.</p>
<p>With the prep books I'm going to boost that score up to probably 1800-1900</p>
<p>My goal is anything above a 2000.</p>
<p>I expect my essays to be top notch, and overflowing with personality, as my teachers have told me they know its me without even looking at the name.
"Your quirky self is all over these pages!" they say with a chuckle.</p>
