<p>Ugh ):
this year was terrible for me.
I am trying to get into a SUNY school and with these grades, I am honestly worried. </p>
<p>English 10 - 92
Global 10 - 87
Spanish 3 - 80
Chemistry Honors - 78
Geometry - 79 </p>
<p>Electives (Which colleges probably won't even pay attention to)
Psychological Fiction - 94
Gym - 100
Health - 90
Photography - 94 </p>
<p>Clubs: Relay for Life , Class of 2015 club
No sports.</p>
<p>Freshmen year was average, high 80s, couple 90s... no clubs </p>
<p>Any advice on how I should step it up next year? I am worried a lot..
Next year I plan on taking AP Psychology, along with AP US history.
I am dropping spanish, and I am taking an elective science, because I already completed 3 years of science, including 8th grade earth science.</p>
<p>I would say try to finish strong this year, and then work your arse off Junior year. I feel the same way - I did okay freshman year, mostly all A’s, an 88 here or there… (still should’ve tried harder). Then this year, lowest on report card was an 80 in Honors Chem. I hate Chem… I definitely have different work/ECs I can put on my app, but most are more awards and things that aren’t regular clubs, which I need… Next year, I have two APs and otherwise Honors. I’m going to get some volunteering this summer and try for NHS next year, do tennis, choose an afterschool club… and of course, I hope to get all high grades. I feel like I blew it first half of HS, and it’s discouraging when people say “but you get good grades!” when, yeah, you do, but YOU know you should be doing better.</p>
<p>Good luck this year and Junior year, you’ve still got over a year to “prove yourself”.

<p>What do you want to study in college?</p>
