OK I’m still in the middle of my sophomore year but I got a W2.9 with 1 Honors and 1 Ap classes and I am hoping to make it to one of the high UC’s and Cal Poly SLO I want to major in Mechanical or Computer engineering. If I cannot make it to the colleges I wanted to, then what colleges can I get into? And can I redeem myself and how? I’m not involved in extra circulars much. But in the future I will.
Your weighted GPA is a 2.9?
You’re going to have to seriously kick it into high gear…and even then it’s very likely. You can’t say you’re going to participate in ECs in the future. Then there’s no point. You need to do that now if you’re going to do it at all. You need to seriously reassess where you’ll be your senior year and what options you have, which I doubt include the more prestigious UCs and Cal Poly SLO.
High UC’s and SLO are probably out of Reach for ME, but there are so many more options available to you. As @Badgers21 stated, “kick into high gear” and get all A’s this year. Participate in some EC’s that you enjoy, not ones just to make you look good for colleges and prep for the ACT/SAT. At the end of Junior year, post your GPA, test scores, EC’s etc… and CC posters than you access your chances and give you some recommendations.
Good Luck.
