<p>College of Charleston: Safety</p>

<p>What’s your problem with UF?</p>

<p>Thanks guys! And Catria, I’ve been living in Florida since I was 9 lol I have grown to despise it with every fiber of my being. After living in Pennsylvania, Florida just can’t compare. However, going to PA at 18 would be a little far-stretched for me and I don’t think I’m quite ready to move that far from my family. But I want something new! :smiley: </p>

<p>Anyone else want to chance me!? :)</p>

<p>Btw I’ve gotten mostly A’s in all my classes except math. I consistently get B’s in math, but there was just one time I slipped up and got a C for one semester, which was in Geometry. Will that really hurt my chances although instill ended up with a 3.6/3.8?
It is the ONLY C I have ever gotten and will ever get. </p>

<p>Also, my AP Euro teacher was mentally ill and had something against me for some reason. He was so unfair to me that we ended up having a parent-teacher conference which ended up getting us nowhere. That is the only reason I got a B in his class. Should I include that information in my application?</p>

<p>All my other classes are A’s. </p>

<p>Thanks!!!</p>

<p>Also, I know that I want to major in Computer Science. I have taken advanced science courses throughout high school (a year ahead of most) but seeing as math is my downfall, should I just apply as undecided for now? </p>

<p>I was thinking about taking SAT subject tests, but CofC doesn’t require them so I don’t know. What do you guys think?</p>
