<p>Okay, I'm an incoming senior in need of help. This is really hard to say because of such shame that I have on my grades.. First I will tell you some of my scores..</p>

<p>GPA: 2.9~3.0 (dont hate!)
SAT1: 2110
Critical Reading: 700
Math: 770
Writing: 640</p>

<p>SAT2: Spanish (taking it this October)
*Anyone suggest me taking another one?</p>

<p>Sports: Waterpolo (9th and 10th) < do sports even matter?!
Soccer (10th and 11th)</p>

<p>I'll also tell you a bit about me. I am Korean born in Argentina. I came to this country 6 years ago. Currently, my sister is attending UCSD and my brother is attending UCI.</p>

<p>***I am so lost in the EC's or whatever. Can anyone explain to me the process and any suggestions on what i should do? I'm devoting my whole senior year in improving my grades, knowledge, and everything based on making it far~</p>

<p>Now, on with the colleges I want to assist: (in order of preference)
UCI
UCD
UCSB
SDU
Cal State Fullerton
FJC (if it all comes down to this...)</p>

<p>(any other good colleges?!?!)</p>

<p>Thank you for your time and your opinions will really benefit me in some way. Feel free to have any suggestions because they won't hurt! </p>

<p>I'm such a noob, my siblings did not teach or inform me about anything. So basically I'm lost in the college world...</p>

<p>Yeah... My parents came here from Korea so they're not really helping me with my college decisions either. And I'm the oldest one. sigh.. I would take another subject test just in case the college you're interested in requires 2 subject tests. I would suggest math II since they curve really generously.</p>

<p>I think you can get into UCI and UCD. You should find a couple of reaches too!</p>

<p>@sexycani: Wow such encouraging words! =) I'm worried about my EC's.. I'm really worried and confused because I'm thinking its too late :(</p>

<p>Haha thanks. I think you will have a viable chance with a boost from your essays and recommendations. And yeah, I wouldn't worry about going to FJC even in the worst case scenario.</p>
