Freaked Out H.S. Junior Needing Assistance

<p>So this is my first time posting.
It's the end of my junior year and I'm freaking out beyond belief.</p>

<p>So anyway...I would love to go to Pomona College or Claremont McKenna College. Throughout my freshman, and sophomore year I always maintained a GPA higher than a 4.0. However...Junior Year...evidently the most important year... I messed up big time. I got a 3.4 GPA Semester 1...and expecting about the same GPA the 2nd semester. It's terrible. My overall GPA is a 3.9 but I still believe colleges will look at Junior Year alone rather than my overall GPA.</p>

<p>So I want to know what my chances are of getting into these colleges? </p>

<p>I think my issue was that I tried doing too many things at once... Junior year I took AP Calculus, AP Physics (hardest...class...ever), AP US History, and Language Arts Honors. Not to mention that I'm also involved in the Varsity soccer team, and band as well! </p>

<p>I took the hardest classes throughout sophomore and freshman year as well. </p>

<p>My SAT score isn't that great I got 1890 the first time. I plan on taking it again because I didn't even really study the first time...my goal is to get a score somewhere around 2100/2400.</p>

<p>I also do community service.</p>

<p>So...with all of this...do you think that my chances are completely ruined? Considering the fact that I was involved in a lot of things?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>No, your chances aren’t completely ruined. But you must have a safety.</p>

<p>You have a very low chance, but if you do a ton of ECs and score amazing on your SAT/ACT and subject tests, there might be a small possibility that you could get accepted. But, in all honesty, I wouldn’t count on it and make sure to apply to a few safeties</p>
