I was the worst kid in 9th grade. By semester I failed two classes and was ranked 450/460. I knew from the start I had to start trying but I was just too lazy to do it. 2nd semester all A’s and 1 B. Now i’ma sophomore. I’m just so angry. If I had the grades I had right now as a freshman, I never would’ve been so screwed.

My freshman GPA is a 2.4. I want to attend a UC school because they don’t use freshman year in gpa re calculation. But they also check rank and If i get a 4.0 gpa the rest of sophomore year and junior year, i’ll still be like only top 50%. What do I do? Can my bad freshman gpa be compensated for a stellar sophmore and junior year? I’m in all AP/Honors courses and really want to go to a school like UCLA.
