<p>my weighted gpa is a low 4.1 and I’m racked 14th in my class as a result of 4 Bs/B+s last year 
and I got a B in math freshman year so 5 b’s… I’m guessing my unweighted is a 3.6 but I’m not sure… I have taken nearly all honors or advanced courses since freshman year and I have already taken APLAC as a sophomore and got a 4. I haven’t taken the sat’s or psats ( this saturday omg) so I don’t know my score but I am aiming for a 2200 and above… I am also VP for FBLA community service, features editor of our school newspaper, and I formed a human rights club at our school. But I am really afraid my HORRIBLE SOPHOMORE YEAR will ruin my chances of getting into NU… or any good school for that matter Is all hope lost for me already or is there still some hope? If so what should i work on?!
On the bright side: junior year seems to be going well and I will aim at straight A’s definitely this year…
Junior course load: APCALC, APES,APUSH, and APGOV</p>
<p>You’re doing fine. Just keep going hard. Not every person accepted into a top school had an UW 4.0 (although it probably was close…)
Keep taking challenging courses, and just do well! :)</p>
<p>Good luck</p>
<p>Wait a minute, did you exhaust your school’s English curriculum, or did you not list your English class.</p>
<p>-------------------------------------------If it is to be, it is up to me…</p>
<p>How the hell are you 14 with a 3.6? I’m 23 with a 3.8…</p>
<p>^Different schools do GPA and ranking differently. Also, 14th out of say 200 students may not necessarily be “higher” than 23rd out of say 500 students.</p>
<p>Apply ED unless you need finaid.</p>
<p>btw: I hope you are taking more courses this year than you listed, two of which are so-called AP Lites (Enviro & Gov). Is the Calc AB or BC? (If the former, it too is an AP Lite.)</p>
