Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hello, I'm a 10th grader right now in high school and I did horribly freshman year. I failed a semester of science and a whole year of math and had d's and c's for other classes, I was co president of my class and that was it, no other extra activates. After that I knew i needed to start changing so I went to summer school got my credits back for science and geometry and promised myself I would try harder next year so this year I have 3 As 2 bs 1 C and 1F the f will probably change to a D really soon. I have a 2.7 gpa and I tried running for class president this year but didn't win. SO next year I'm going to be taking Ap American Lit and Comp Ap American History, taking an Anthropology class at a local uni, Ap Psych , pre cal, chemistry, (I suck so much in science and math so i'm not going to hurt myself by taking high classes) honors Latin III, journalism II (editor and chief next year) and fashion design II. </p>

<p>Starting these Extra Curricular Activates Next year (Junior year):
-Founder of the tutoring club and chess club,
-co pres for the Muslim organization,
-running for class president again,
-journalism club,
-youth court,
-speech and debate,
-going to volunteer at my mosque, going to be a mentor for the upcoming freshman and going to volunteer at a hospice for grieving children and teens.</p>

<p>I want to become a surgeon or Emergency medicine doctor in the future and go to Med School, so i shadowed and ER doctor this year and going to shadow a surgeon next year. So guys do I have any chance to become valedictorian? or at least in the top 5? and do I have any chance getting into any of the ivies like Harvard/Yale. My college essay will be on how I started to love learning again, my recommendations will either be from the surgeon I will shadow and one Ap teacher. I'm preparing myself now for the SATs that I will be taking next year. Sorry about this being really long but thank you if you help me, it will mean a lot AND sorry I had to post this again because only one person replied :-(</p>

<p>You have a decent chance if you score in the top percentile on your sat and/or act and any subject tests required. Also you will have to work on your grades try not to get anything less than a B and keep your GPA above a 3.5. As a bonus, ask at your nearest colleges if they offer credited college classes for high school students, these classes could be taken over the summer and can replace HS credit like college pre-cal, writing comp, and etc. I took some classes at a community college and found it easier than a reg, hs class. Well I wish you best luck.</p>

<p>You’re the second “sophomore” I’ve encountered. Look…please, just focus on your junior year. There’s a time to worry about chances and colleges, and that time is after junior year.
How can someone reasonably chance you without your most important year?
I can say that you’re on the right track for extracurriculars.</p>

<p>Sorry, but with a 2.7 - unless you are a URM - ivies are improbable for you.</p>
