<p>I want to go to Yale but my freshman year started bad I have two A's two B's and three C's for these first two nine week semesters. I am in Earth Space Science Honors that is one of my B's the rest are all normal classes but I'm in Algebra II not honors but it's a C. Okay so now that you know my situation if I were to get A's in all of my classes and get into AP classes next year would i have any shot to get into Yale if a do incredible in those classes through the rest of high school? </p>
<p>I'm talking about the academic part of getting into Yale.</p>
<p>Thank you for answering. I’m glad that I could still have a shot at going to Yale. Could you please let me know anything that is challenging that Yale would like?</p>
<p>If you did things cause you enjoy them and not cause you think Yale would like it.</p>
<p>And you really shouldn’t peg yourself to a particular school before you apply, especially as a freshman in high school, and especially especially if it’s a school like Yale that gets over 20,000 qualified applicants every year and can only accept 2,000 of them. You could do everything perfect and be rejected for some arbitrary and completely unforeseeable reason. You’re just setting yourself up for disappointment.</p>
<p>Freshman year is a great time to read one of the big college guides and research the many options that could be right for you. I love the Insider’s Guide to Colleges, but other people like the Fiske Guide or the Princeton Review Best Colleges book.</p>
<p>I want to get into Yale a lot but i do have other alternatives to go to if i don’t make it into Yale i just see Yale as the best college so i will strive to go there but even if i can’t make it the effort i am putting in can help me get into other colleges so i’m not to worried about being disappointed.</p>
