<p>I go to a college prep high school, an I am not taking any Honors or aps due to my busy athletic and ec's agenda, will that effect my acceptance rates?
How can I increase my chances? And what should I try to score on the SAT(already taking classes)
Thanks everyone, have a blessed day/night! Im becoming so anxious and sad about my gpa</p>

<p>“not taking any honors or APs due to my busy athletic and ec’s schedule”…You do realize that most kids taking APs also hav very busy schedules. I work 20 hours a week, am captain of a varsity sport, and am the student body president (which is typical for UNC applicants)–if you can’t handle what you have now, how will you handle college? Being brutally honest here, you really need to step it up if you want an acceptance letter. Honors classes are not that hard, what do you think UNC lectures will be like? It’s your junior year and you haven’t taken any AP or honors classes…unless you pull a 2400, your chances are extremely low.</p>
