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?
