Slim Chances Most Likely

Chance Me / Match Me
1

<p>I am currently a senior in high school.</p>

<p>GPA: 1.9</p>

<p>I have had a eye disorder which sometimes made me not able to read text clearly, and had around 12 surgeries to fix my vision. This threw me off a lot on my academics.</p>

<p>SAT: 2150</p>

<p>I volunteered at hospitals 3-4 times a week for a couple months now.</p>

<p>Worked 4 times a week since freshman - senior year at a resturant</p>

<p>My ECs are not great since I’m very limited to activities with my medical problem.</p>

<p>What are my chances of getting into an actual 4 year college</p>

<p>I have no idea what I can get into since I got great SAT but poor GPA</p>

<p>I want to do something in business so if you could list some universities for me it will be great.</p>

<p>What state are you in, what can your family afford and what sort of school environment interests you (large/small, urban/rural, etc.)? Also, will you need a school with the resources to provide accomodations for vision disability or is your corrected vision now within the normal range?</p>

<p>I would like to go to a medium/large urban enviorment</p>

<p>My vision is also now corrected as told by my doctor. He said it is perfectly in tune with normal eyes a month back.</p>

<p>Money is not a problem.</p>

<p>We are also located in Mass.</p>

<p>Are you kidding?
Of course you have good chances
that was a serious condition and you could totally write about it while applying everywhere
And now that you can see clearly, you are ready for a new beginning
You definitely have a chance and that’s an amazing SAT score and your gpa is understandable from what you’ve gone through
good luck</p>

<p>After your vision was corrected, did your GPA jump dramatically up? If not, your story won’t hold water with colleges.</p>

<p>Not to sound insensitive, but I don’t understand how your GPA could have fallen so low, even with you having a medical condition. Did you and your family not bring the subject up to your school? Because as is with the case with most disabled students, they are able to reach a compromise with their schools. I just don’t see how a school could have let one of its students get mostly Ds and Fs without doing something.</p>
