<p>Senior year has a bit more pressure than I thought it would. taking 4 APs this year require me to get at least 3.7, which is somewhat difficult with me now. With 1 class already seemingly close to a borderline of B-/B. Arggg...</p>
<p>grades in teh first few weeks can be screwy, I'm sure you'll do fine once you get into the swing of things (my first few months taking 5 APs was hell on earth, but I finished the year with 5 As and a B, so I'm sure you can do it)</p>
<p>I'm a little scared too. I finally get my own classes (before this year we kind of traveled in classes) this year, but that just makes me feel alone, not independent. And I get constant work from every single class every day, and I'm taking Philosophy at UPenn and I feel like I'm in a hole being filled up, and so far I'm managaing to get all the dirt out just up to my waist but eventually I'm going to get buried. </p>
<p>Fortunately, my college apps seem to be easier the more I work on them.</p>
<p>Alvadores: Pomona College is higher ranked than either cal poly. That may be what hoyin is referring to. However, Cal Poly SLO is more selective and higher ranked than Cal Poly Pomona.</p>
