i disagree with @yonceonhismouth by the time senior year comes along its not really about your first quarter of senior year improvements, by now there should be a clear picture of the type of student you are. Not saying not to try your best and aim for alll A’s in the first quarter, just the impact it might have on your GPA might be small. I definitely agree on aiming for a much higher SAT score, it is vital to getting into good schools. @T26E4 is right in applying to schools that fit your background academically as you don’t want to apply to a lot of high reaches without having a school you know you will get into and potentially like/enjoy. Most schools ask for EC’s, essays and teacher recs so disregard that part. Aim for a match with your grades first, then go to the next step.
