Is anyone out there a high school counselor?
Asked by jamesjamesjam1I have a few questions, if anyone out there could answer them for me or point me in the right direction. I'm a high school senior and I go to an international school in Korea, so my high school life's been a little different from most american kids. I did attend K-8 in California though and I am an American citizen. I have a GPA of 2.3. I'm the newspaper editor, been in Model United Nations twice, managed various sports teams. No honors/AP classes. I'd like to study creative writing/journalism/english Should I aim for a community college or a university? If I do go for the community college route, should I bother taking the SATs? Or are there state unis out there that will accept poor ole me? Courses I've taken are: English -4 years Spanish- 1 year Math -3 (Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra 2) History- 2 (US/World) Science- (Earth Science/Bio 1/Bio 2) Social Studies-3 (Economics/Sociology/Psychology) Electives (Philosophy/Art 1/Drama/Health) HELP!

Shoot for college. It's a cinch. As long as you're persistent, you should get in and finish. If they don't accept you, then you fall back on Community college, but you can still work your way up to University level after a couple of years. I have friends that went to Community college for 2 years and University for 2 years, and graduated in 4 with me. I went to the University all 4, but that isn't reflected on our degrees, they both say Bachelors Degree on them. Take the SAT and take the ACT, and hopefully you'll get lucky and do well in one of them, which can help boost you into University level. I got into the University of Arizona with a 1060 SAT score. That's pretty low.
