<p>I realize many people might see my GPA and say that i am reaching too high. My freshman year lack of effort put me in a situation where (by my school's curriculum) I was unable to take an honors classes until my junior year, and take only one until my senior year. My rigor has been a steady improvement, now taking 2 AP and 3 honors classes my senior year, and performing well. Intellectually I feel these are schools that I fit in at because they will challenge me academically (which I like) but still afford me the opportunity to be successful. I really hope my childishness freshman year isn't going to impede me from getting into well known schools and change where I know I could do well.</p>
<p>Thanks to everyone who answers. </p>
