<p>The best way to determine if a school is a good fit, is to visit. Repost at the end of your Junior year with your UC GPA, Unweighted GPA, SAT/ACT scores and EC’s. Too early to tell if any school is a “good fit”.</p>

<p>Take hard classes, I’m a senior and just wish I took harder classes when I was a freshman and sophomore. You’ll get a true sense if its a good school for you when you become a junior and senior, if you’re an introvert, then UCSD is good.</p>

Joel Barlow does not offer AP classes until junior year.
