Hi! I had a pretty shaky start to my high school career. I am heading into sophomore year and a lot of my grades did not work out very well… I need to know what is realistic for me and some tips. I will let you know what classes I took and what weighting they were as well as what I got, as well as what I am taking for next year. Thanks for whoever helps me out with useful information.
My grading scale is on 10 point so 90-100 is an A and 80-90 is a B, etc.
Freshman Year:
Honors Math II (Worth 4.5 for weighted GPA) : 92
Honors World History (Worth 3.5 for weighted GPA): 87
Honors Earth and Environmental Science (Worth 3.5 for weighted GPA): 81
Spanish I (Standard, Worth 4.0 for weighted GPA): 90
AP Psychology (Worth 4.0 for Weighted GPA): 81
Sports and Entertainment Marketing I (Worth 4.0 for weighted GPA): 91
Honors English I (Worth 3.5 for Weighted GPA): 87
Health and Physical Education (Worth 4.0 for Weighted GPA): 94
So yeah these are my grades, they were pretty bad but Freshman Year was kind of a rough start. My gpa scale is very weird for weighting so my final freshman year was:
Weighted: 3.875
Unweighted: 3.5
Many of my classes that ended as B’s were because of last minute things such as Final exams such as Honors English I, which was very unfortunate. I also don’t really have many extra curriculars right now which is another thing I need some help on.
Now here are my course requests for next year:
Honors English II
Honors Biology I
Honors Math III
Honors Civics and Economics
Spanish II
AP Human Geography
Honors Sports and Entertainment Marketing II
Honors PLTW Principles of Engineering
I heard that they are changing Honors PLTW to be worth as much as an AP credit which is 5.0 quality points for an A.
So thanks for any feedback in advance, Let me know what I can do!
What are my chances for NC State, I am a in state resident.
