<p>I know exactly what you mean. My GPA is going down into the ****ters because of midterm exams and my less-than-stellar choir grade. The only poor grade I’ve managed to bring up is English. </p>
<p>I feel terrible. I’m not going to get into the college of my dreams.</p>
<p>■■■■■ gpa
we can all be happy farmers</p>
<p>hey at least you got a better SAT score than I do (1900) and I’m Asian.</p>
<p>Cheer up! 
Not everyone can live up and “fit” the typical Asian stereotype. You will also be surprised at the amount of people here that do not have actual friends… I hope you feel better!</p>
<p>Thanks. </p>
<p>It’s just that all my life, I’ve worked towards this one particular school. Even my parents don’t push me so much towards it, but I’ve always wanted to go so much myself. If I don’t get in, I think I’ll be devastated. And my chances are harder with a decimated GPA–it’s super selective.</p>
<p>^ What’s your GPA?
What college is it?</p>
<p>My GPA was a 4.11 before this year, but I’ve started getting a lot more A-s and B+s this year. I don’t know for sure right now. </p>
<p>Yale. God, pipe dreams.</p>
<p>Well, I tell you what… you did better than most kids. You should be HAPPY about yourself for such an achievement of that GPA.</p>
<p>I mean, I guess it’s okay. I know I sound like such a stupid little brat, but you have to understand that Yale is something I wanted practically since I was 6 years old. It’s all I’ve ever wanted…and I feel like I’m saying goodbye to it.</p>
<p>“Yale is something I wanted practically since I was 6 years old”</p>
<p>I would love to hear more about that…I do not meet many 6 year olds thinking about college. What does that mean?</p>
<p>It means that around six years old, she heard about this college called Yale! that all the adults seemed to like, and the name sounded cool though she had no idea exactly what the school encompassed, so she dedicated the next 11 years of her life working towards something that she fell in love with on a whim.</p>
<p>Ok, that was a little harsh. But seriously, a six year old’s dreams don’t exactly account to much, unless you had some mature revelation. I wanted to go to Wellesley when I was a little girl because some literary character’s sister went to it, and it was so pretty in the movie Mona Lisa.</p>
<p>It was the first college I ever heard about. I remember my parents’ friends were talking about it and it just left an imprint in my six-year-old mind. When I was a kid, when I thought college, I thought Yale because I didn’t know anything else. When I grew up, I learned more about the school and loved it even more.</p>
<p>Harvard was mine. Then I visited and realized that I really didn’t like Harvard…</p>
<p>Sigh, Yale/Harvard/Princeton aren’t even options for me right now so you’re a much better Asian than I am! T_____T</p>
<p>The OP is mentally weak. Stop sulking and relax. Your life is just getting started. With those stats you can certainly get into a top 20 public school. Do that and the rest of your life is ahead of you. H.S. is really extremely insignificant. Future employers don’t care about what you were like when you were in H.S.</p>
<p>I dislike my life as well. I want to be done with high school so I can start fresh in college. I’m a senior and I’m near slackage with bad grades in AP Psych. I’ve took my SAT twice already and my scores were horrible with years of preparation. And then January will be my last time taking it… that will be my last chance. My ambition is so high right now. =/
And plus, kids in school talk negative things about me sometimes just because I’m not cool like other guys.
I hate everyone who has taken honors and 2-3 APs. I just wish I was like you guys right now…
I even see myself rejected to my dream school later on (but unless it changes depending on how well I do in college, heck I’m trying to work on even getting into a state school right now, don’t want to be rejected or else I’ll be stuck in my place).</p>
<p>Gonna just say this: </p>
<p>Fix your study habits or whatever’s wrong before you go to college. That’s what matters now.</p>
<p>It’s okayy. Asians pwn anyway(even though i’m not one, I have many Asian friends lol)</p>
<p>You hate yourself?
I have a 2.8 GPA, I’m also Asian myself.
The thing is- I feel like I’ve been doing my fullest potential during midjunior/senior year(That’s when I realized wow, I’m a failure)
Your grades are decent and you can get into good tier schools. Don’t sweat it bud =]</p>
<p>Wow your test scores and GPA suck. Asian faillllllll</p>
