I’m a junior in high school. I go to one of the best high schools in the country. Freshman year, I got a 3.1 overall unweighted GPA, but I took all honors classes. Needless to say, I didn’t do too well. Sophomore year, I took all honors and 1 AP, and got a 4.0 unweighted. So far into Junior year, it looks like I’m going to get a 4.0 unweighted again with all honors and 2 AP. I haven’t taken the SAT or ACT yet but I estimate that I am going to get a high score. I’ve also been on a varsity sports team for 3 years and I have taken orchestra as my elective. I made a lot of mistakes freshman year, so what are my chances of going to good schools? Thank you!
- Home State?
- What can your parents afford to pay each year?
- GPA unweighted/test scores
- Intended major?
- Type and location of schools
- Home State? Maryland
- What can your parents afford to pay each year? 25k, maybe a bit more
- GPA unweighted/test scores Freshman year: 3.1 Sophomore and Junior year: 4.0, 5 on all of my AP exams so far, 29 PACT (I took it freshman year, I still need to take the actual SAT/ACT)
- Intended major? Undecided, but most likely medicine
- Type and location of schools Anywhere in the US
Also, I have been in an orchestra (not related to school band) for 6 years, and another one for 3 years.
Been on varsity softball since freshman year, JV track since sophomore year, and been in school band every year of high school.
You didn’t answer #3 - what is your overall W/UW GPA?
Oh sorry.
UW: 3.77
W: 4.6

“Good Schools” are different for everyone. You have given us nothing that YOU want in a school. It’s not worth going to a school just because it’s considered “good”, so do research into schools that you would like to attend. Without test scores, it’s impossible to chance since they make up a large part of admissions. Keep your grades up and stay involved, as well as study for standardized tests, then we can chance you.
