<p>Also, in my sophomore year of high school, I suffered from serious family issues that took a toll on my school work. My highly disfunctional older sister got pregnant, which took a toll on my free time. Both of my grandparents on my fathers side fell seriously ill. I developed an eating disorder, which I recovered from (thank God). Also, I had a very inept Englsih teacher that was on drugs (literally) and lateer got fired. Because she took offense to the fact that I was a vegetarian, she gave me a B that I had to get changed. Because of fights with the administration and whatnot, my mental health took a serious downturn and I was diagnosed with depression (which led to the eating disorder). Sophomore really sucked.</p>

<p>Hope you can help! Thanks</p>

<p>i dont know much about Barnard but i guessing that you have a pretty good shot at ucla, ucsd, and columbia</p>

<p>Your chances at Barnard seem very good, but make sure you have "safeties" that would suit you as well.</p>
