<p>I have a GPA of arround 3.0, and a SAT score of 2050. I'm not looking for some kind of ivy league school, but a decent university like CUNY, University of South Carolina, or Clemson. I did bad my freshman year and failed 2 classes, Spanish and Geometry. Mostly duo to me being pretty immature during that time period. I did retake them and make B's in them so this is how my transcript goes like</p>

<p>I do have a steady trend of going up in grades, but my Freshman year is pretty much killing my GPA and it kind of makes me depressed, but I just want to go to a decent state university for now. So, what are my chances?</p>
<p>Colleges love to see improvement, and you’ve got a nice SAT score. I’m not gonna say it’s a sure thing, but I think you’ve got a decent chance to get into Clemson, and a great chance to get into University of South Carolina and CUNY</p>
<p>I really don’t have much “Ec’s.” I’m a pretty top chess player in the chess team circuit at my state, and I plan on doing some science projects, that’s really about it. I just need a decent state college, really. I’m not looking for something amazing, just something that’s not horrible and has a decent premed or chemistry program. I was told City college and College of Staten Island have a decent premed program, so I was thinking about going to those. By the way I’m out of state but I have a house in Newyork, so I don’t know if that would qualify me for something.</p>
<p>Is the Staten island college, that bad? In your opinion, what’s a good match college for me in Newyork, really in the Newyork city area, thanks !</p>
