High school GPA improvement

Applying to College
1

Freshman year semester-one GPA: 2.0 (normal course load no honors classes offered at my school for freshman)
Freshman year semester-two GPA:3.28 (normal course load no honors classes offered at my school for freshman)
Sophomore year semester-one GPA: 3.57 (harder course load 2 honors classes of 3 offered not including language)
Sophomore year semester-two GPA: 3.71 (harder course load 2 honors classes of 3 offered not including language)
*GPA is weighted
My PSAT score was 1380 so I am hoping to do good on the SAT next year, my PACT score was 30 but I’m choosing SAT over ACT, also i will be taking APUSH APES and AP Comp junior year and I will probably get around a 4.0 weighted GPA. Extra curricular wise I ran track sophomore year and will be doing wrestling and track Junior year, I will also have summer jobs every summer.

My question is how will colleges see me and do i have even a slight chance at UC’s

@Cadenkai17 The good news for you is that the UC system doesn’t even look at freshman year grades/GPA!

Well damn, I didn’t know that!

Correction: Freshman grades are not used in the UC GPA calculation. UC’s do look at Freshman year grades to make sure you have passed the a-g course requirements.
