Hi guys
My cumulative gpa for last 4 classes I.e.9-12 is 1 out of 4 but my SAT score is 2200 .is there any chance to get admission in good college and get financial aid… please reply ASAP.
What do you mean by “last four classes”? And 1.0 out of 4.0 is a D average, you must have failed some classes and had to repeat them.
You are a good candidate for taking a post-graduate year of high school.
Very very few colleges would want someone with a 1.0 GPA. And very few high schools would keep promoting someone with a 1.0 GPA - normally what happens is let’s say you were in honors in 9th grade, but got a 1.0, then you would be dropped to regular classes, then if you got a 1.0 again, you’d be in remedial classes (or asked to repeat a grade).
There is no reason on this Earth for someone who is getting a 1.0 GPA in high school to go to college. Find what you love to do and do it.
I never failed a grade just got low scores . I got %age between 50-60% in these 4 years .so no chance for good college?
Why do you want to go to college? If you get a 1.0 average in college, you will go on academic probation and get kicked out.
Academic probation is generally less than 2.0 GPA in college, which is a C.
You need help from your high school with your situation. Or is there some medical or personal reason your GPA is so low?
And you said “50% - 60%” - that is failing for most US high schools. Is there any chance you are trying to convert from a non-US high school to a 4.0 GPA scale? What percent does the top student get at your high school?
I would hate to tell someone there’s no chance. 2200 on the SAT would indicate that you are a pretty smart kid. Why do you think you didn’t excel in school?
“no chance” vs. “would it really be worth it to attend college even if one would accept you?”
Those are two different things.
You can’t want the end goal of the diploma if you can’t get the 2.0 GPA to stay in college.
I am living in india, I always got low percentage between 50-60 % age. I just coverted these scores from gpa calculator on google I have entered d for all my 4 classes. Top student get about 90 % age then 85 and so on.
My mother medical conditions is not well since my birth. Earlier my sister take care of her but she got married ever since I take care of her. I do all household stuffs and take care of her
Ahh, I see. Your country uses a really different system. Would it be fair to say that you are in the fifty percentile of your class? Maybe someone who is familiar with this system of grading can chime in here. Please.
IF I get admission I will study hard and will perform well but I am afraid I can’t admission. I am looking for state universities like Iowa state university. So plz tell me finally any chance or not?
i also got a 32 on act.
Thanx for replying guys
