GPA: 3.49 unweighted / 3.6 weighted
(In 9th and 10th grade, I really didn't know, nor did I care, about what I wanted to do after high school. So I basically performed at an average level without trying. Afterwards, I got my act together junior year and had a strong upward trend in grades that will hopefully continue during senior year. If not for my performance junior year, my weighted average would be significantly lower than what it is right now.)
