<p>Hello, I'm currently a junior in high school. I've had horrible grades in my three years of high school because I slacked off and didn't know what I was going to do in life. Both of my parents did NOT go to college because they're from Korea and was very poor. I was planning on going in the Navy to BUD/s as an enlisted but I want to go to college and join the Navy as an officer. </p>
<p>I honestly don't know what I'm going to do. I took really easy classes this year and my gpa is still horrible. I have an unweighted GPA of 2.8/2.9. I haven't taken the SAT yet because I was dead set on joining the military but I'm faltering and tending more to college. I have around 50 community service hours and was in wrestling my sophomore year. I also got a D in geometry of the last semester of sophomore year and I had to retake it this year. I'm also planning on taking Algebra 2 over the summer so I can get into pre-calc next year.</p>
<p>Would me going to college as a first generation influence colleges to accept me?</p>
<p>I want to go to:
University of Arizona
University of Oregon
University of South Carolina
University of Colorado Boulder
University of Washington
Arizona State University
University of Iowa</p>
