<p>I am going to be a senior in high school this coming fall. My academic history has been very up and down, causing strife and frustration throughout. During high school a multitude of things have happened contributing to my general poor statistics. The loss of an uncle to cancer, a divorce between my parents, and trying all sorts of different medications to get my A.D.D. under control. But even with these conditions, I really did not take school as seriously as I should have. I will be the first one to tell you this. My gpa unweighted is 2.6 (yes I know, not very impressive) But my last quarter grades came out above a 3.1 so I am going up as opposed to down. My junior grades look like this AP junior English=84 Trig=70 Sociology=87 US history(full year)=82 Spanish 1=90 AP Microeconomics= 83 Human Anatomy=85. My sats were 1630 with a combined CR and Math of 1120. I want to stay on the northeast, or within driving distance. I was wondering which of the schools on my list should stay, which are realistic reaches, and which I should just cross off because I have no chance. Thanks
