What are my chances in North Carolina?

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>Hi all, </p>

<p>I am only a sophomore, but I am already thinking about my chances for local universities, and how much I need to improve to havae a chance at those universities. First of all, let me start with the universities that I am interested in;</p>

<p>NC State University
UNC Chapel Hill
UNC - Wilmington</p>

<p>So far, my grades look like this;
(I am going off of what I will get at the end of this semester)</p>

<p>Freshman Year:
Microsoft Excel/Access: A
Honors Pre-Calculus: C
Computer Programming I: A
Healthful Living: A
Honors World History: B
Honors Geometry: B
Honors Biology: A
Honors English I: B</p>

<p>Sophomore Year:
Latin I: A
AP Calculus AB: B
Honors English II: A
AP Chemistry: B</p>

<p>I am planning on taking a lot more AP courses, and I know that I will do well in them because most of them are science AP's. I am in a club at my school where we help the special needs kids, and we are "buddies" with them. I also volunteer at a nursing home. Finally, I plan to either volunteer at REX Hospital or at UNC Chapel Hill. </p>

<p>Based on those extracurricular activities, and considering that I get all A's, ans very few B's for the rest of my high school career; What are my chances of getting into NC State, UNC Chapel Hill, and UNCW</p>

<p>Thanks in advance to all that reply

<p>What’s your gpa</p>

3

<p>Unweighted: 3.41
Weighted: 4.25</p>

<p>But the GPA can only go up from here, for me anyways.</p>

<p>Since your a sophomore, you have time. I’m a junior with a 3.65 unweighted and a 4.68 weighted. UNC LOOKS AT BOTH. Some people say the only look at unweighted but that’s a myth. Most importantly are the ECs. Make sure u still keep up with those cause in junior year, you’re gonna be really busy. Another thing is try to take more than 6 APs. Rex is a really good area to volunteer, since ur a sophomore, u should also volunteer in libraries and be part of alot of clubs. Maybe even make ur own. I too want to go to UNC or duke. Good luck, plz chance me back</p>

<p>Also if u keep it up, ur guaranteed in uncw and nc state</p>

<p>UNC chapel hill not very high</p>

<p>Unless you get ~1900+ on your SAT you’re under the median bar for NCSU</p>
