I’m a high school senior and I want to know my chances of getting into a decent college with my gpa. My gpa is a 2.85 and throughout high school I’ve completed all honor classes in 9th and 10th grade, taken 2 IB classes in 11th grade (English and History) and currently 3 in my senior year (Economics, English and Spanish). I have not scored very high in these. I participated in a program where I’ve taken 3 college courses at a community college over the past 3 summers and I’ve passed them all with at least a B-. I sing, play instruments and act. I’ve participated in a lot through out high school but I’m concerned if it’s hard to look past my grades. I’m worried about college because my gpa is extremely low and I’ve scored low on my sat (1650 including writing) which I’m retaking in November. Should I attended cc and do you think I’ve blown my chances of getting into a good school? I want to figure things out quicker and I’m worried about my future. I slack off a lot by procrastinating but I don’t want to go to a school where none of the kids care about anything. My laziness is reflected in my grades. For example, I got a C in both IB History and IB English but I’ve scored 100% on the English regents and 98% on the history regents and I’m concerned that this will also be a problem
I think maybe you should look into the Sunys or a community college. But if you attend a community college be ready to go into a university as a transfer student.
