<p>Hey whats up,</p>
<p>So recently I have been worrying about colleges and what my matches are. I have been through a lot these last couple of years and I have persevered. In the beginning of high school my family had legal issues, economic problems, and now my parents are getting a divorce. Since they are divorcing my mom wants to move up to San Francisco and wants me to stay and help out so I can't go out of state as I had originally planned, this is the reason why I want to go to Berkeley. Well back to my stats, I have managed to keep an okay gpa through high school but now I feel its not good enough: </p>
<p>Freshman: 3.4 uw/ 3.9 w(Honors English, Geometry, and Biology)</p>
<p>Soph: 3.3 uw/ 4.0 w(Honors English, Algebra 2, World History, and Chemistry)</p>
<p>Junior: 3.8 uw/ 4.3 w(AP English and Spanish and Honors Pre-Cal)</p>
<p>Overall GPA: 3.5 uw/ 4.18 w</p>
<p>I am in Club Catellano(9,10,11), NHS(11), CSF(11), and Key Club(10,11). Football(9), Track(9,10) and XC(10). Chamber (advanced) choir(11).
I volunteer at my church and have over 100 volunteer hours.
1st generation if that even counts for anything.
I am taking my SATs in March and I hope i can at least score a 1950.
I guess I found out something in high school and that is that I could sing. This year I ranked third in my district as a soloist and it was my first time performing in front of anyone :/. I never met my real dad and my mom tells me he is the one who passed this on to me. </p>
<p>Please chance me for the following schools:</p>
<p>UC Berkeley
UC Davis
Cal State Long Beach
University of San Francisco
San Fran State
NYU
UCLA
any others up by San Fran?</p>
<p>PLEASE CHANCE, I'll CHANCE BACK :D</p>
