Grade trend

[UDUBHUSKIES]

<p>Okay, so I did decently freshman year, however, my schedule had no AP or Honors classes, and I ended up with a 3.818 GPA. By the way, my school does not weight, and they go on a 4.0 scale. Then sophomore, I moved into Pre-Calculus, French 4 (one year advanced), and Honors Chemistry. I ended up with a 3.934 GPA. Now Junior Year, I took two AP Classes per quarter, and one duel enrollment. First quarter I took an Honors Class. My GPA was horrible, a 3.5. However, none of my grades were below B+'s. Also, at the beginning, a 20-year old that my family knew pretty well happened to be hiking in India and fell off a cliff, therefore ending his life. Also, a friends mom died of terminal cancer at the beginning of second quarter. Did I say my school grades by quarters? They go by the block system. This semester, first and second quarter I had French 5, AP Calc AB, and APES. First quarter I had Honors Writers Workshop. Next semester, my advanced classes are Honors Physics, AP Calc BC, and Honors Global Lit. Assuming I was able to raise my GPA to 4.0 for both quarters, would colleges view it as a huge improvement over the course of the year and give me a thumbs up, or a thumbs down?</p>
