<p>well my essay states that freshman year i was cruising along (i spent a lot of time doing ECs and got home a 11 every night). I pulled like a 3.4 freshman year (5 Honors classes)</p>
<p>Sophomore year, my EC was taking much more of a toll on me as my teachers weren’t willing to become flexible with me turning in assignments. I ended up getting 3 Cs (English, Chemistry, Pre-Calc [all Honors classes] and 2 Bs. Junior year I decided to stop theater (for reasons explained in my essay a major one being academics). I started the year off getting all As in 2 AP/4 Honors classes. I had straight A’s 1st MP and and at the 2nd marking period mid report. However, i became sick and was out of school on and off for just about the rest of the year (I had to argue for my credits back in my classes). I spent the time studying SATs/ACTs/SAT2s/AP Tests. I ended the year with 2 As (both in the AP classes) and 4 Bs. I got 2120 SAT, 36 ACT, 800. (Chem, [had a C in that class]) 780 (Math 2 got a B in that class freshman and a C sophomore year), 710 (Bio a class i was taking jr year but was absent much of got a B in that class), 800 (US History, got a B in that class in the bad sophomore year I had, and 800 (physics, i almost got an A in that class somehow after getting a 60 3rd marking period because i missed so much). I got a 5 on BC Calc and a 4 in Stat.</p>
<p>I’m certain sr year i can do as well as i did in the early part of jr year.</p>
<p>I’m taking 6 AP and 2 honors classes next year (2 honors are Multivariable and business).</p>
<p>I’m expecting to get an A in all 8 classes.</p>
<p>It would raise my UW to at least a 3.3 and pull me within the top 9% of my class</p>
<p>if i get those 2 grades rounded up i have a 3.39 and be within the top 7% of my class</p>
<p>a person w/ straight As in R level classes in my school (4.0 UW are within the bottom 25% of my class). How are they a better candidate for college than I am. Should I just not have taken as rigorous of a courseload?</p>
