I am currently in my junior year of high school, I slacked off the first two years and am now beginning to realize that stuff is getting serious now. I currently have a 2.75 weighted and a 2.6 unweighted. I have taken mostly academic courses but plan on taking honors/AP next semester. I have not taken my SAT yet but will be taking it in March. I recently took my ACT and i do not think i did too well but plan on taking it again soon. Can someone tell me my chances if I finish with around a 3.0 weighted and a 25 on the ACT? I also was in 2 varsity sports and I have around 20 hours volunteering for disabled persons. Any tips or suggestions?
Do what you can to keep you grades up and raise your GPA. Take the SAT and or ACT again and prepare beforehand. Take a class or at least get a guide book and spend time doing the work before. ECU still accepts lower test scores but they have gotten strict on GPA. You still have time to prove that you can do the work!
