<p>How much more important is junior year than sophomore year? I hope its a lot more important (thats what i hear, but idk..)</p>

<p>i'm on a 94=A scale</p>

<p>my freshman year wasnt so great: 3.429 GPA
2 Honors Classes, Spanish 2, Algebra 1</p>

<p>my sophomore year was awful because of my Chemistry teacher: 3.38 GPA
an Honors Class, AP World History, Spanish 3, Algebra 2</p>

<p>Geometry over the summer</p>

<p>my junior year i'm looking at hopefully a 4.13 GPA (AP curves)
Honors Physics, AP US History, English Lang, Psychology, Spanish 4, Pre-Cal</p>

<p>my senior year i'm looking at a hard first semester - 4.17 GPA (AP Curves, again)
AP Gov, Lit, Chem, Comp Sci, Spanish, and Econ, Calculus</p>

<p>if I get SAT = 2200, PSAT = 205</p>

<p>AP World Test = 4
AP US Test = 5
AP English Lang = 4
AP Psychology = 5
AP Spanish = 3
AP Gov = 5
AP Lit = 5
AP Chem = 5
AP Comp Sci = 5
AP Econ = 5</p>

<p>oh umm, i've been in debate all four years - placed regionals in sophomore and junior years. i'm also part of math team.</p>

<p>any shot of Vtech, UVA, or Mellon?
(its a 3.78 overall GPA btw for fresh-thru-senior)</p>

<p>i'm very scared and paranoid at the moment, sorry</p>

<p>Yeah, I'd say that junior year is the most important. That's the time to shine, because you've already been used to high school, and junior year is pretty stressful to many people, so I think junior year is the time to show everyone what you're made of!</p>

<p>Okay thank you! Sophomore year's been tough with my crazy chem teacher, resulting in an epic shoot-down of my GPA for this year. Next year will be different :D</p>
