High School Suspension?
Currently I am a Sophomore in High School but in Freshmen year I got into a small fight at the end of the year and I was suspended for the first three days of Sophomore year.
I am really scared right now that this will effect my College App. I have a 3.84 GPA as of Freshman year. I'm in all Honor classes as well as doubling up in order to take Junior classes. I've written four books, and the Teachers have always complemented me on my behavior, I am really really afraid right not, will it count against me and bring me down for joining a college as say Harvard or Princeton?
Thank you in advance
The fight was because he kept on minding my business and taking advantage of me, then when I said I will not leave the lunch table just because he could sit, he kept throwing his food at me including a tomatoe which ruined my shirt.
I knocked his bag of pretzels then he choked me, then I tried to break free and they said it was a fight

Doubtful that it'll ruin your chances at those colleges. On the CommonApp (the college application that those colleges use), there's an area where you can explain a smudge on your high school record.
If you're looking at Harvard and Princeton, you might also want to look at Brown. They'd probably love you even more. Plus, they have the best Ivy undergraduate program.
Also, I wouldn't rely on having written four books to get you into college. You'll find, when you're looking at the application pool to those school for the class of 2012, everyone's written a book.

The teachers should have made a better approach to this situation. I do not think it will affect you that much, but there are always other colleges such as Harvard and Princeton.

Colleges may not see that you simply have been suspended in core tuition. They quite handiest seem at what occurred in top tuition. Even so, they're in most cases extra involved with how you have got grown and elevated as a substitute than what errors you made ago.
