<p>I'm only in my first half of junior year HS, but I will be applying to college soon (next year).
My GPA: 3.8
I'm going to have probably 33-36 credits of college courses by next year, I was accepted as an early admission at my local community college. My GPA in my college is a 4.0</p>
<p>Difficulty: 1 AP world history course, and college credits, plus accelerated American history, accelerated english, and accelerated biology.</p>
<p>SATS: haven't taken yet </p>
<p>I've started my own business at age 16, making family DVDs for local families. So I have a background in entrepreneur work, and multimedia</p>
<p>other extracurriculars: lettered in varsity cheerleading, speech and debate, college student gov, book club, columnist for my local community newspaper (not school newspaper, this is a professional organized paper)</p>
<p>Volunteer Service: 2 United Way events, local pen pal program with PA prison, YWCA, and privately run mission work in the United Kingdom for 2 years, supporter of NOYS (national organization for youth safety) and mocha club (in support of african orphanage)</p>
<p>Awards: Principal's award and 1st in my class during freshman year (my new school doesn't have class rankings) I also made Dean's List at community college. Rotary Club Student of the Month. Evening Sun Student of the Month. PA Cyber Academy Outstanding Student Achievement Award.</p>
<p>I definitely want to major in communications or journalism. I have presented at the VA in Washington DC in front of the head of the communications department for my business, and shadowed some of the communications people there. I have also presented to the Rotary Club, as well as the United Way. </p>
<p>So what are my chances, and what should I do to further boost my chances? Do I have a chance at scholarships?</p>
I would say (for your GPA) try to aim around 1800.</p>
