Good College?

Purple Pear asked:


I’m finishing up freshman year at my highschool and already worrying about college- haha. Well I’m just really worried about my grades. Because in Jr. High I got all A’s and had a 4.0 GPA but lately my grades have gotten worse. My grades currently are:
Art : A (95)
English: A (90)
Earth Science: B(86)
Global History: A (97)
French: B (85)
Math 2: C (72)

Is it still possible for me to get into a good college? I haven’t taken my finals or Regents yet so I guess the grades could alter. But I’m still really concerned about my grades. I know getting accepted to college is about more than grades but I’m on top of everything else… I play sports, I’m part of a lot of clubs and the school paper and do a lot of community service. But then also my dad wants me to be on National Honor Society, Honor Role and get into a schoool like Harvard or Yale! I’m just really stressing these grades. Can I still do better and get into a good college?

    Well, you’re not getting into the Ivy League with those grades, but you should be happy with the school you’re getting into.

    Your first employer isn’t going to care where you went to school, they’re going to care about how you did while you were there and whether you’re going to be an asset to them or not.

    Probably can’t get into Ivy league, but those grades aren’t terrible. Work on bringing them up your sophomore and junior years…those are more important than freshman year.
