<p>Hello I'm a soon to be junior, and I messed up horribly my sophomore year in the IB program I was wondering if my chance at the the following colleges are unrealistic?
UCLA
USC
Carnegie Mellon
NYU
UCI</p>
<p>My Gpa freshman year un-weighted both semesters were 4.0 with 25 hours of comm service
1st semester sophomore year g.pa. was 3.0
Alg 2 hnrs/myp- C+
Chemistry hnrs/myp- A
World History A.P- B
Language Arts MYP- B
Spanish 3- C
Waterpolo/P.E- A(of course)</p>
<p>2nd Semester g.p.a un weighted 3.5
Math alg 2 myp- C+(79.6!!!)
Chemistry myp-A
WHAP-A
Language Arts myp
Spanish 3-C
Track-A</p>
<p>Also this year I did do a personal project which took up 6 months of the school year at the same time, a 3ftx4ft painting of Van Goh's Starry Night. Also 30 hours of community service.</p>
<p>Junior Year I plan on :
-taking The SAT with a target goal 2300 (2000 on practice test)
-actively participating in 4 clubs which include JSA,Art Club, School Newspaper, and MESA(engineering club)
-continuing the I.B Diploma program
-competing in statewide architectural drafting competitions
-4 A.P classes
-Water polo again
-Track again
-150 hours of creativity, action, and service
-Classes: Precal hnrs, IB lang, AP US History, A.P Spanish, IB Art & Design, Phsyics 1 hnrs,
keeping straight A's no matter what in these classes</p>
<p>Will my junior year be astounding enough for colleges to overlook my sophomore year? And am I even aiming at the right colleges? I'm planning on majoring in Informatics or Information Technology or even Architecture.</p>
