Over the years I’ve had a gpa of 3.0-3.4 weighted and unwighted but nothing higher than that.
Freshman year 1 honor
Sophmore year 2 honors
Junior year 2 ap’s
Senior year I will be taking 4 ap’s and I’m going to study more to do better on tests.
Total ap’s I’ve taken 6 honors, 3
Act: 27 I’ll be taking it again
They only have 8 different ap classes at my school. And they only have english and science honor classes at my highschool for underclassmen which I’ve already taken.
Ec’s are tutoring, babysitting, key club secretary 1 year but have been a member for 2 years, speech & debate 1 year(I went to state my first year), art club 1 year, Church youth leader for 3 years, going to be yearbook editor during my senior year, went to yearbook camp, I volunteer a lot with my church, and I plan on joining one more club during my senior year while still being involved in the other clubs I’ve been in.
Academic interests- I do photography(with a canon camera), and write
Ethnicity- african American, caucasian, alaskan native/ eskimo.
Disabilities- severe scoliosis since I was born, respiratory problems(I have to sleep with a bi-bap/ci-bap) which overall I have less energy than everyone else and I can’t play sports.
Reasons for low grades- alcoholic mother, and now I’m taking care of my disabled aunt who can’t cook for herself and has fallen three times, she also has a hard time walking since of her bad arthritis, my grandmother also died the same week of my sat and act testing but has been struggling for 2 months with cancer, with all of that happening for the past three years of high school I got really bad depression and I lost all of my friends, one of my best friends for six years turned on me and played a rude joke saying that she just went to the docter and they diagnosed her with stage 4 cancer which I cried on the phone for an hour until she said “just kidding.” With bullying and depression I had a harder time spelling and comprehending some things, but I mostly had a very hard time spelling simple words, one time I couldn’t remember how to tie my shoes, I can now though but I’m still having a hard time spelling and focusing, which I can never finish a task until hours later. I used to cry every night from my Dad yelling at me about my grades and how I’m such a dumb-ass or a stupid bitch or that I’m dumber than our dogs, while he is always nice to my sister who never tried to do well in school, she would stay out until 2 am every night, and she never went to college, he treats me like I have to be the best even though I’m the youngest. And I’m not stupid, I used to get all A’s in middle school while I was taking some highschool prep classes while still being involved with extracurriculars then 8th grade hit and my mother started to drink since and my grades just lowered and got to one state, they aren’t terrible they’re just average b-b+ instead of the straight A’s I used to get. Right now I have no friends or great role models except for my brother which he lives on the opposite coast as me. I’m going to try to focus more by not having my phone near me, no music, complete quietness, and will have to clean my entire room everyday to keep myself from doing a different task, hide my books, hide my journals, no more playing video games, nor watch tv on the week days, limit myself from the computer, will have a snack everyday after school, just I don’t know how I can keep myself from not thinking I get distracted very easily over little things, it takes me a long time to finish my homework. Also I’ll study for a test or I’ll know the answers on an easy test and will forget it right when I take it, I’m not good at math but with other tests in different classes I have a hard time with.
Anyways what colleges did you guys get into with my gpa? And can you guys tell me what colleges I’ll have a chance to get into. I want to major in marketing or mass communication(but most likely marketing). Will I have a chance at indiana university, washington state university, american university, pepperdine, rutgers, or any others that you have an idea of?
Thanks!
