• Answer:

  You're pretty capable with that high of a GPA. Really all you need is atleast a 3.0 to receive some scholarships. Go to the UC that offers the most possibilities for what you want to do. When in doubt, go for the money, that is the school with the most money and most giving nature. Those usually have more open classes available and give more financial aid. Speaking of financial aid, if you live with parents and under 23 you likely won't receive a dime. If that's the case, get an easy part time job, a real easy one, maybe something you like but in your spare time get good at what you want to be in life. Then head to school and free ride it. You have an even better chance yet of getting in if you transfer from a community college. If you take that route you can free ride it and by the time you head to UC you'll probably be 23 and free ride that too. Think carefully about those AP classes as most of them won't help you in the long run depending on what you'll be majoring in. I know AP Government, Calc, and maybe Biology will knock out a general education and a heavy course in math later on if you score real high in those classes. I don't know about the rest because I know some won't help at all. Well think about it closely you could be making the best or worst decision yet of your life if you dive in straight after high school into a UC even with that many accomplishments you done. Don't let the bullies ruin your life into proving yourself smart, you already are. Heck they called me the smartest guy in class and I had a low GPA and nearly failed my AP classes. We all got different strengths. You have to defeat you bullies. Don't take all these hard classes and probably end up failing them and egging them on. Just choose like 4 or less, that's all you need. Defeat your bullies, don't be bullied.
