Chance a worried sophomore?

I took the SAT I last year. I was told that my score would count so I’'m probably just going to take one more junior year in case I can score better than that.

And yeah, I know Boston College has a religious affiliation so I might not mention that even though it’s one of my main extracurricular activities.

Okay, for my elaboration. I also play softball at school (junior varsity) but I didn’t mention that because I just started. This year, I had some trouble with classes that I usually find easy like History and Math because my dad moved out. I am sure that I will do better next year. For arts, I have a jewelry business on Etsy but lately I haven’t been able to make new pieces so I didn’t mention that either. Not sure if that counts as art though. I also have a photography blog but that’s more for my leisure so I’m not sure if that counts too. The only club I did was Red Cross. I tried to do other clubs like yearbook but I didn’t like how the clubs were run, you had to have connections to even get elected as an officer or in this case, editor.

You answer a lot of Boston College questions. Did you go there or something?

And hypothetically, if I were to do well junior year and it rose my gpa up to a 3.6, would colleges look favorably since there’s an upward trend?
