Need some advice please!

<p>Can anyone give me some advice? Temple's my top choice, but I'm concerned I won't get in. I don't have the best academic track record, mostly B's and C's (the occasional A, three D's and one F on my transcript of four years) but first term of my senior year I've done really well.</p>

<p>CP English, A+
Zoology, A+
Honors Sociology, A
Honors Spanish 5, A-
Creative Writing, A-
CP Precalc, B
-High Honor Roll
I have a 2.79 cumulative unweighted GPA, but it'll be raised quite a bit after my recent grades.</p>

<p>SATs: 1830
Reading, 660
Math, 570
Writing, 600</p>

<p>I have a really good essay, and awesome teacher recs. I'm wondering how much they'll consider my senior year grades? They're the only thing that'll save me at this point! As for extracurriculars, I've captained Relay for Life teams for two years, and am on the planning committee, I've done mission work in New Orleans, and a whole bunch of hours with my church (153 total). I know this is a lot, but if someone could please give me some idea as to my chances of getting accepted, I'd REALLY appreciate it!!!
Thanks!</p>
