Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Junior year, has been a very tumultuous journey both emotionally and family wise. As a result, my grades have been plummeting and I'm extremely worried about my future. I fear rejection from "renowned" schools. It would devastate me, especially my parents. I have been really stressed out more so than any other because I keep on thinking that due to my ethnicity and decreasing GPA I would be shortlisted from the UC systems. I know that right now, things do not look good for me.

<p>UCs do not count race by the way. The best thing you can do is try your best semester two and if your grades rise, then that will help you greatly. On the UC app, there is a section where you can write or explain about something and that is where you should explain your drop in grades (provided its a good excuse)</p>
