What were your grades in high school, what college did you go to?

What kind of colleges can i get into college if i go to a good high school but have average grades?

  • i go to a public high school in tennessee thts always either #1 or 2 every year in the state. in 8th grade i took algebra 1 and spanish 1b which i heard counts in your gpa (not sure about spanish1b). i made A's and B's during then, but when i got into high school (the same school) i started to make more and more C's. my parents always expect me to get at least a B in every class, but thts becoming too tough. im a sophomore now and my lowest grade on my report card is a 75 and thts in chemistry. sometimes i think i wont get into a good university (something like vanderbilt or emory) and i'll end up only going to community college. whoever is reading this, could i get into a good college??????????

  • Answer:

    I'd apply to Northwestern. It is a very good school. Vanderbilt is pretty good too: http://bofadeez.blogspot.com/2010/11/vanderbilt-university.html

I'm sorry but you won't get into like Vanderbilt or Emory. However, you can get into a decent university with even poor grades, you won't have to go to community college. If you want to stay in state I'd recommend UT or MTSU. If you're willing to go out of state I know Alabama, Auburn, Ole Miss, Kentucky, Arizona, and Arizona State all have very high acceptance rates and tend to accept just about anyone.

Well extra activities are supposed to help. It all depends on what you want to get a degree in? Like don't try for a math/science degree :)
