I am in my second semester of senior year in high school. I applied to 13 schools and got into one so far. (Jacksonville University)
Rest of the schools:
Nova Southeastern
USF
UCF
Florida Southern
UWF
Xavier
Howard
OSU
Georgia State
ASU
LSU
My mid year grades are horrible for this semester. Got 1D in Precalc, C in Digital Design, C in AP Computer Science, and C in Anatnomy. If I improve second semester will I be fine? Btw my UW gpa right now is 3.020/ W is 3.357
You want to avoid D’s and F’s. Do whatever you need to do to pick up the precalc grade – for example do extra work, see your teacher after school on a regular basis, utilize online resources (ex. Khan Academy), get a tutor if you can (either privately or often HS honor society students tutor for free).
look carefully at the conditions supplied when you apply. If your colleges don’t require a routine mid-year update with your grades from this 1st semester they may instead require you to notify them of any grade of D or lower. Failure to do so can lead to admission being revoked when they see your final transcript. I know the UC system requires this notification
