<p>I'm currently a junior at a high school in Japan and my situation's kinda confusing and hard to understand.
I'm a permanent resident and I went to schools in the US from preschool to part of freshman year in high school. But when I was 15, I had to "move back" to Japan.
I was born in Japan, but I grew up in the US, so I couldn't speak, read, or write in Japanese. There were no international schools nearby, so I had to enroll to a regular Japanese high school in which all classes were taught in Japanese.
Because I didn't understand most of what was being taught, my first year grades were not so stellar. But, I was never at the bottom of the rankings, and pretty much always in the middle. </p>
<p>My school doesn't have a GPA system, and it's really hard to join clubs, even harder to land a leadership position. It didn't really help that I didn't know how to speak proper Japanese.
I currently have a 4/5 average grade which is pretty good - higher than most students, but my "Japanese" and "Ancient Japanese" grades are terrible. It's really hard to get a 5/5 so I don't think it's that bad.
I also don't have a lot of extra curricular activities. The only ones that I have are opening an English school for Japanese middle school and elementary school students, 3 years of piano, and 2 years of a math club that I started. </p>
<p>Do you think I have a chance at any good universities? I'm interested in majoring in business or international relations.</p>
