<p>Took the PSAT this October and haven't gotten my results back yet. My grades were very low my freshmen and sophomore year due to attending a very rigorous academic private school (internationally known), plus I've had some personal and family issues. I'm now attending a public school in California and got my grades up. My transcript shows a sufficient upward trend so I was hoping that will get some schools to consider me. Although my grades are still low compared to students getting into UC schools or any other school for that matter... so I was wondering what are my chances?</p>
