<p>Well my GPA has taken a dent from taking honors English though I wasn't the best at it even though I was up for the challenge.</p>
<p>I'm currently a Junior and these are a summary of my "academic stats"</p>
<p>I have a Academic 9-12th grade GPA of 3.38
Total GPA of 3.6
And a Weighted GPA of 3.8</p>
<p>I currently have done)for science/math...:
Honors Chem(got a C though ), honors Bio with a B; I have received a B in Alg 2 (soph year);</p>
<p>I'll be ending this year with most likely aiming for/ 97% sure:
I have 7 classes +2 more(outside of school)
Band=A
English= A+
Trig(I'm on the border between a C+/ and B-(I'm going to try my best for the B)
Bio AP= B (however I received a C the 1st semester)
History (US) A+
Yearbook A
Newspaper A</p>
<p>I did have English AP 1st semester but I had a C then my English teacher said it would be in my benefit to switch to the normal class and pull off the A since he said my Academic GPA was taking a hit.</p>
<p>I am also taking an engineering class at the local college on the weekends (I'll get a A in it) Principles of Engineering (3 units)
And also my health class (via BYU) distance ed..... (its required to graduate) I'm taking it online should get an A in that too</p>

I also have "all the sciences" completed (Bio/Chem/AP Bio/Physics)...</p>
<p>For next year I'm taking AP Calc, AP studio art, Newspaper, Acadec, English, Govt, Band. I should be able to pull off A's in all except AP Calc (B or C?)???</p>
<p>I'm also taking over this summer Computer Science or Chem (yr 2 class)-equiv. to AP chem in HS, and Economics at the local CC.</p>
<p>My GPA should be getting higher now that I'm not taking classes that may leave a huge dent without any benefit</p>
