<p>Hello -- </p>
<p>I'm currently a junior in high school and I want to know what my chances are of getting into a "good" school. This year has been especially rough for me and, as a result, my grades have slipped. I received my first C this school year (first semester of AP US History) -- though final grades are not in yet. I will most likely end with two Bs (in Honors Pre-Cal and AP US History) and 3 As. I have an unweighted GPA of a 3.636 (I have only ever taken Honors/AP classes) and got a PSAT score of 218. I will be taking the actual SAT in May. I should note, also, that I skipped two grades prior to entering high school as a Sophomore, meaning I will graduate at 16. I do not know how this plays into college admissions, and would also like to know what that means for my chances. As for ECs, I have an executive internship at a museum, participated in Journalism club last year, and completed extensive community service at the ASPCA. I am an aspiring writer -- and am planning to major in English. My dream school is Columbia University, however I know that that is <em>far</em> out of my reach. That being said, I'm looking into colleges that fit my interests in Creative Writing that are located in my home state of Florida. </p>
<p>Thank you for the help in advance. </p>
