Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I don't know if this really fits under "What Are My Chances", but I didn't really know what other forum to post it in.</p>

<p>I'm a student that was in the high honors list in my first semester of junior year, but then in my second semester, even though I got the 94% + average gpa, because one of my scores were under 83%, I was not able to receive high honors. </p>

<p>Is this a huge problem? I'm really worried right now because colleges may think that I have gotten worse throughout the year. </p>

<p>I actually improved all my grades in all of my other classes ( 7 classes out of 8), but the only class in which my grade decreased was in math, which was also my lowest grade in my first semester.</p>

<p>I'm going to major in communications so I know that humanities is more important, but I'm just really worried about colleges thinking that I am slacking off throughout the year. </p>

<p>Is getting only general honors (rather than high honors like I did in my first semester) in my second semester of junior year going to hurt my chances in the college admission process?</p>

<p>By the way, I'll be able to greatly improve my grades in the first semester of senior year because I finally dropped math as a class, so I only have humanities classes, because they are more closely related to my desired major. </p>

<p>Please leave your thoughts!!!</p>

<p>no they don’t care at all about honors, but don’t drop math! You need four years of all core courses!</p>

<p>@guineagirl96 thank you so much, I feel a lot less worried about the honors problem now. But I want to get into communications at Nothwestern and it says that for the communications school, you only need 3 years of mathematics. So I just dropped it to make room for more courses that would be related to communications. Do you still think I need math? The thing is… math is really my worst subject and it really brings down my GPA</p>

<p>what is the highest level of math you have completed?</p>

5

<p>@guineagirl96 pre-calculus this year </p>

<p>If I were you, I would take AP Stat next year, but that’s just my opinion. Perhaps others have a different view. Colleges prefer if you have the core classes all four years</p>

<p>^I agree with above, 4 years Math, 4 years Science, 4 years English and at least 3 years Language should be part of our High School Cirriculum. </p>
