CHANCE ME PLEASE!!!!

<p>I know there are a lot of people on here saying how they went from 70's average to 80's or 90's in junior year, and I shouldn't be complaining, but I had an 88 academic avrg FR year, with an AP and accelerated class, and SO year I ended up with 92.5 academic avrg with AP class, honors class, and accelerated class. BUT halfway through the year I miraculously improved from semester 1 having a 83 avrg to semester 2 having 98 avrg. And in JR year, im in FULL IB with 98 avrg in every class. I got 2250 on SAT and I will get good teacher recs and good essay. I have varsity sports, and theatre. I estimate my 4.0 gpa UW to be about 3.7-3.75. I estimate to be about top 10% of class but might be just outside of it due to not great FR and SO grades</p>

<p>1.)Anyway I can let colleges know about this a GREAT improvement during SO year?
2.)I know I didn't include all my ec's but do I have a shot at Cornell?
3.)What are some good colleges I can get into and will they overlook my bad (but not horrible) FR and SO grades?
4.)I want to be a film producer and actor when older but i want a practical major, but something cool! IDK, maybe something like forensic tech, criminology, detective, any suggestions?</p>

<p>THANKS! </p>

<p>If you can afford Berkeley, and, more generally, UCs, they will look past freshman grades…</p>

<p>That said, Cornell is a reach.</p>
