Hi i’m a junior in high school. I had a gpa of 4.0 my freshman year and 3.6 my sophomore year. I transferred school my junior year and i failed 2 core classes and 2 electives my first semester. My goal right now it to get all A’s second semester. I failed Spanish 2,precalc honors and biology honors. I’m planning to take Spanish 2 again my senior year and make up math and biology credits in summer school. I’m part of FBLA at my school and i have done 20 hours of community service and i volunteer at the African Community Center. I’m very college-bound but since i moved schools, i had a very hard time fitting in and was bullied all the time. I stopped coming to school and was severely depressed. Also i have a sleeping disorder, i would sleep for 16 hours and still be sleepy. A few months ago, i slept over at my friend’s place and the next morning i wouldn’t wake up. My friend freaked out,slapped me,hit me and literally jumped me. She broke my ribs so i was in the hospital for a few months. I missed a lot of school work and i tried to do all my makeup work but i couldn’t finish it all before the semester was over unfortunately. I’m a very college-bound student, in my free time i take lessons from the EPGY program from Stanford. Also i’m planning to take all AP classes my senior year. Also i took my ACT in 10th grade and had a 25 composite,i haven’t taken my SAT yet. Will this look bad on transcripts? Will i be admitted to a decent university with these? I live in Colorado and i play tennis and i write fiction on livejournal during my free time. I’m not a citizen and i want to double major in IT and Business Administration.
