I’m a junior in high school right now and my college of choice is OSU Main Campus. I struggled my sophomore year due to illness in th family, but I’m ready to work my butt off junior year. My cumulative at the end of junior year WILL be 3.3, the highest it could possibly be (UW). I’m applying early to OSU, by the way. So my grades look like this:
