So I’m a senior who has always taken difficult classes. Freshman and sophomore year I did eh. Got most A’s and B’s in foreign language, history, and English, but I received worse grades in math and science (C’s and two D’s) i recognize i did horrible. Junior year things got better, i received an A in everything but AP government (b+) and Algebra 2 (B). I even got an A in regular chemistry!!! So far during senior year I’ve been taking pretty difficult classes (ap micro, ap psych, and precalc which is hard for me) I’ve kept everything above a B and am taking all AP’s next semester (ap comparative govt, ap world, ap spanish lang). My strong point is foreign language (ive taken as many levels of french as possible and have done exceptionally, and I will have taken five years of spanish). My SATs were average 1260, but I scored 670 in ERW (which is pretty good) and a meh 590 in math. I’ve already been accepted to Temple University, but is there any chance of me getting accepted to a school like UW Seattle, Pitt, or American? I also plan on taking the SAT again but I’ve already sent my application to Pitt. I just want to know if schools will take into consideration that I’ve always done well in my strong suit (after all i am applying to liberal arts schools), and if they’ll appreciate my improvement. Sorry for the wordy explanation
Depends on your SAT. Colleges overall like to see an upward trend in grades (which you are portraying!). SATs could be slightly better, perhaps around 1350? That would boost your chances. But still apply, you never know
