Am I in trouble???
I’m a junior with a 3.03 UW GPA and a 3.5 weighted GPA. I’m hoping to improve a bit, but I mostly take AP classes and tend to do just okay in them. I didn’t take freshman year seriously and ended up with two Ds. I’m planning to take the SAT this summer and aim to major in speech pathology. Should I be worried???🔥

Guys I’m so mad
I’m so frustrated right now! My prom isn’t until May, but I wanted to get a dress early to avoid inflated prices closer to the date. I was shopping today and discovered the PERFECT dress—it’s pink with sparkly swirls, flatters my waist, and hides my hip dips. I absolutely loved it… until it wouldn’t zip […]
AP Research Reading Comprehension Survey! I’m looking for non-AP students (those taking 4 or fewer AP classes) to participate in my survey. It will only take about 2 minutes of your time. While participation is optional, I would greatly appreciate more responses for the free-response questions, as I currently don’t have many answers. Click here […]
You’re definitely not “cooked”! While it’s understandable to feel concerned about your GPA, there are still plenty of opportunities for improvement. Here are some things to consider:
Focus on Grades: Since you’re in AP classes, make sure to put in your best effort this year. Improving your grades in current courses can help raise your UW GPA significantly.
SAT Preparation: Taking the SAT seriously can make a big difference. A strong score can help offset some of the lower grades and demonstrate your potential to colleges.
Extracurricular Activities: Involvement in activities related to speech pathology or the healthcare field can strengthen your applications. Look into volunteering or internships that align with your interests.
Personal Statement: When the time comes, use your essays to explain your journey, including the challenges you’ve faced and how you’ve grown. Colleges appreciate resilience and a clear motivation.
Research Colleges: Look for schools with strong speech pathology programs that consider more than just GPA. Many institutions take a holistic approach to admissions.
Ultimately, keep working hard, stay positive, and don’t hesistate to reach out for help if you need it! You’re more capable than you think!
