<p>My academic record beyond high school is an utter failure. I went to Northeastern University after graduating high school. Dropped out after a couple semesters due to bad grades and a handful of W’s. Went to two community colleges and performed poorly there as well. Basically I have been lazy, unmotivated, and depressed. But I want to turn my life around now. I had the idea of taking a couple courses at Rutgers this summer to help me get in (the summer program accepts everyone), and so far I’m doing really well in both. If I can manage to get A’s in both classes (Macroeconomics and Intro to Sociology), is it even worth it to apply? If I were to take five courses in the fall again at community college and do really well, do you think I would have a shot?</p>
<p>Also I don’t know if they would even care about my high school performance at this point, but my GPA was a 3.4 if I remember correctly and my SATs were in the 1900s.</p>

<p>I think a semester or two at community college with good grades would be very helpful to being able to transfer to Rutgers.</p>
<p>Eat and breathe.</p>
<p>Lol trust me, it’s easy to get into Rutgers. Unless your performance is very atrocious.</p>
