(working towards straight A's)</p>

<p>*retook in Credit Recovery, earned A's</p>

<p>SAT: 2130, going for 2250+</p>

<p>EC's: Piano(self-taught)-6 years, Guitar(Self-taught)-4 years, Tutoring-4yrs, volunteering at hospice care center and office-2yrs, volunteer at hospital, volunteer at food bank-1yr, CSF-2yrs, NHS-1yr, HERO club-2yrs, AcaDeca Club-2 years</p>

<p>Ok so now let me explain my concerns. First, obviously those F's are bad, but it's due to foster care and moving around. The school was indifferent towards my education and placed me in whatever classes they wanted and refused to give me credits. I retook all of them and got A's. 2nd, my courses aren't rigorous at all. When I transferred schools again it was too late to sign up for advanced courses. 3rd, my EC's show no focus. Most of those were at the end of 10th grade up to now, which was when my personal issues started to sort themselves out. I also haven't won any significant awards or held leadership positions.</p>

<p>I think my essay will be pretty good; I learned a lot from the challenges and hardship I faced. My recs should also be good as my teachers have told me they're impressed by me and I have a great relationship with my GC. </p>

<p>I know my application is pretty messed up but I really want to know if I have any chance at all to attend a top 100 university or LAC. Suggestions would be great, thanks everyone I really appreciate your help.</p>

<p>I am pretty positive that you will get into a good college. Your SAT score is phenomenal, and your grades(despite the sophomore year) are really good. Don’t sweat it</p>
