I'm going to cry. I AM SO SCREWED

<p>Man I can't believe this. I messed up so bad. I am in my junior year of high school and before the year started I told myself I would do well. I did really good first semester of sophmore year, got a 4.0, second semester I bombed and did horrible. And now this 1st semester of junior year I messed up again. I got a 3.5 GPA WEIGHTED. WEIGHTED for crying out loud. Do you know how bad that it is unweighted?</p>

<p>I am taking:</p>

<p>AP Bio
Graphics
US History
Pre-Calc H
English 3 H
Spanish 2</p>

<p>I can't believe I messed up so bad. My grades were fine up until the last month and then they just all went down. </p>

<p>Did I screw myself out of any chance of going to a UC? I can't settle for less than that. Or can I still redeem myself with this 2nd semester? I am NOT going to slack off this time, I need to get above a 4.0 this time.</p>

<p>We need your UC GPA and SATs to help.</p>

<p>Ummm hold up. I have a question. Does English 2 H count as an extra point in the UC system?</p>

<p>If it doesn't I got a 3.8 first semester of sophmore year, and.....get ready for this one... a 2.8 second semester <em>yikes</em>. Junior year...Well I got a 3.5 like I said. I'm sure of those classes though, they are all UC counted.</p>

<p>I don't think you count freshman year right? Anyway I got a 3.66 both semesters for that year.</p>

<p>I'm taking the March SAT. Right now I'm about in the 1800's range. I'm hoping to get at least a 1900.</p>

<p>You still have a good shot at UCSB, UCI, and UCD if you do well on the SAT.</p>

<p>Assuming you have about a 3.3/1850 you should be in at Riverside, Merced and maybe SC.</p>

<p>holistic approach is what most colleges are doing now, there is still a chance gl!</p>

<p>In most Cali high schools, English 2 Honors is not weighted credit.
You did weigh chem right??? (I'm assuming you took chem...)</p>

<p>Anyway, just buckle down, study and you'll do fine your next semester.</p>

<p>don't worry to bad........do better this semseter.....colleges like seeing improvement</p>

<p>probably gonna have to do better than 1900 on SATs, thats the easiest to improve on</p>

<p>Those stats look fine for UCSC, UCR, and UCM.</p>

<p>Little_Duck:</p>

<p>Assuming you are a California resident,
UCB/UCLA: Reach
UCSD: Slight Reach
UCI/UCD/UCSB: Match
UCSC/UCR/UCM: Safe Match</p>
