Question about college

[Prussian to the Iron]

What is you GPA like? Because you don't need a 4.0 to get into college, that's a myth. I wasn't a great student in high school either, I applied to go to a university and I was accepted, however I decided to go to a state college instead to save money. Also what grade are you in? If you're still in the early years of high school its not too late to save you GPA. I was a horrible student in the 9th and 10th grade, but my junior and senior years I applied myself more and I was able to get a decent GPA when I graduated.

under 3.0, and im a junior. so its not exactly possible to bring that to a 4.0

GPA isn't the only thing in the world. Test scores, extracurricular activities, and good teacher recommendations count for a lot. I had under a 3.0 in both high school and undergrad, and I got into good schools for both undergrad and law school. In both cases, I had several other factors to offset the GPA itself. What you need to do is demonstrate that your GPA is not representative of your abilities.

Thats fine, like I said you don't need a 4.0. I think mine was between a 2.5 and 3.0.

alright then, that makes me feel a LOT better. now I just need to think of where I want to apply...

With a 3.0 you could likely get into a good state school, if you keep on working to improve your GPA and get good SAT scores.
