Disclaimer: Obviously this is all just speculation, I have no idea why the heck the college admission boards let me in (their mistake). I recognize how lucky I am to be able to attend university and have such valuable educational opportunities. Sorry if I seem braggy I was just excited to get accepted :) I know the schools I applied to aren't in the ivy league or anything but I was still pretty hype. Not sponsored.

You and me both. For the PSAT I got an 1190 and imma study my butt off to get that sweet goal line of 1250 on the actual test so that the universities can look at me as a somewhat competent student. My GPA has been holding on to that 3.5 but Idk if I can hold it. Hopefully I do.

If you don’t mind me asking, did you take advanced classes in highschool? Do I have to take advanced classes to get accepted to a good college?

@fourtwenty1813 4 года назад

@@claire-hz7ks I got accepted into college with a 2.6, graduated with a 2.8 (all normal classes) and still got $3 grand in scholarships per semester (the tuition is $8.2 grand a semester). Granted my school is a bit smaller so they were a bit more lenient. Here's what you need to do: look at all the requirements to get into the schools you want and see if you meet them. For my school the requirement was either a 3.0 GPA or a 1000 SAT score (I got 1130). When I got accepted they basically said "your sat was great, your GPA is acceptable. Welcome"
