<p>I’m a freshman right now.
So my GPA is currently about 3.667 for second semester but I can raise it to a 3.8 at most, depending on my grades on my finals…and I got a 3.733 GPA last semester…</p>
<p>My Asian parents are freaking flipping out about my grades -_____- Apparently freshman year is the year where you get your best grades… but I heard from some people that it was their worst because high school takes time to get used to, I guess? This year I’ve gotten the worst grades I’ve ever gotten in my life…</p>
<p>Sooo…has anyone been able to raise their GPA over their high school years or does it just get harder?</p>
<p>I’m planning on majoring in Psychology if that helps.</p>
<p>My parents think I’m going to end up in a community college at this rate…is that possible with my grades?!!</p>
<p>■■■■■. You will have good college options (maybe not ivies though).</p>
<p>-____- exactly. I have no idea why they’re freaking out so much alskdjf;alksjdf;</p>
<p>Freshmen year is supposed to be the hardest because of the transition and maturity. Tell your parents to take a chill pill. Also disregard the ivies comment. If you focus and get a near 4.0 in your next two years, then you are on the right track for the ivies. Upward trend is important and tell them Stanford and some other elite colleges do not consider freshmen grades.</p>
<p>YES 
Thank you so much! :)</p>
<p>Yeah, I made the ivies comment inadverently because I did not realize you were a freshman. :)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Well, yeah…it’s possible with any grades. All you have to do is sign up. Where I live, even a lot of people with 3.9s go to community college. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Don’t be too certain of that. A lot of college freshmen don’t even know what they’re going to major in.</p>
<p>I hear West Virginia State University takes everyone.</p>
<p>One of the decent state flagships in my state accepts 99% of applicants.</p>
<p>You should look to Twilight for help on being a student worthy of the title of prized pupil.</p>
<p>Psychology is quite possibly the worst major to go with. Also, if you don’t have 10.0 GPA (on a 4.0 scale), it’s likely you’ll end up at Le Cordon Bleu. Sorry about your loss.</p>
<p>I love Family Guy!!!
OP: Dont use U of AZ as your safety. Jan Brewer may cut U of AZ’s funding in order to investigate the “headless bodies in the desert” and Obama’s birth certificate.</p>
