<p>Hey guys, I was wondering how bad this would look on a college app:
My freshmen year was pretty mediocre.. 3.67 gpa unweighted
My international school is VERY competitive, we're all asian so you can expect crazy smart people.
So this year I basically slacked off A LOT. My grades dropped and i ended up with 3.34...
I skipped geometry when i was a freshmen so i took alg II/trig as a freshmen and advanced precalc as a sophomore. I also took AP US history this year. I'm also taking the equivalent of IB B HL chinese, but since I'm only a sophomore I wouldn't get credit for it.</p>
<p>If I get good grades the next two years will this drop affect me a lot?
I'm pretty sure I can get almost straight 4.0s next year because I dropped all the useless classes I hate and don't do well in for classes I actually care about... </p>
<p>I play two varsity sports: basketball and soccer. I also play volleyball but that's at a JV level. I think the main cause of my gpa drop is because of basketball and soccer taking up a lot of my time and effort. </p>
<p>I plan on going to colleges around the same level as Berkeley, Cornell, Stanford.. That might be reaching pretty high but I mean what's the point of all this if we don't dream big right? Please help me!</p>
