Did I just basically screw up my life?

So I just checked my GPA and it’s not that hot. I am in a class of 1300 and I am now number 274. Yikes I hate typing that even. I just finished my second semester of 10 grade and we go by semesters here. Anyways my GPA is a 3.3. :expressionless: I really don’t want that. I’m taking advanced classes so that will help my weighted GPA but not my UW. How high can I get my GPA by 12 grade? I used to be really sad and demotivated my last three semesters but after winter break I am trying not to let any of that bring me down. I really need help!!!

In theory, you have taken about 1/2 of the HS classes that be will be considered for admissions. If you ace every class from now on, it could increase to a 3.65.

You will be ok if you get all A’s from here on out. One, you can show that upward trend, and two, it will bring your GPA up quite a bit. IF, you don’t continue on the straight A path, your GPA and choices will be limited. Also, if you have some AP classes in there and you get A’s, your UW GPA will appreciate too! Good luck! It is NOT hopeless, but is going to take 3 semesters of really hard work.

No, you have not.
