How much will it hurt

<p>Hey next year I will be a senior, and as i started looking at colleges, a thorn in my neck is my screw up soph year. Freshman year i goofed around...just because i didn't take highschool academics as seriously as i should have (but still got all A's and 2B's). But then i had to move from wisconsin to washingtonDC which completely screwed me over.</p>

<p>Sophmore year really was my lowpoint of my hs career, and i think moving had a big part to do with it. Even though i worked my ass off junior year to make up for it...and managed to get my gpa from a 3.4 to a 3.7...would colleges even consider the moving excuse for soph year?</p>

<p>Someone told me I should show an upward trend, and show i could continue rising success through college, and thats what i tried to do.</p>

<p>Also...i got a 2 on the friggin APbio in soph year...a class which i regret taking as 90% of kids at my school got below a 4 :(. How much will this hurt as well (assuming i get 2050-2100 on the SATs and really nice ECs)?</p>

<p>It's impossible to help you with the information you supply. will you get into an ivy? No. Can you get into average state U? Probably.</p>

<p>it wont hurt that much. My freshman year I had a 3.2 and made up for it sophmore eyar when I had a 3.8. Pulled my gpa to a 3.56 unweighted. Anyways point said, I have a good chance getting into a top 50 college and if I do, you do. You have a chance with those scores and gpa getting into a top 25 school. Good luck.</p>
