So I did terrible in high school, can I still get into a university?

My gpa in high school was only 2.7 and my god awful SATS was An ugly 860 math and verbal combined, I graduated 2013, I went to community college, I had to take developmental classes. First semester I had 3 classes English 050, I got an NP in that class which is nonpass, also took math 060 got a P in that class which is a Regular pass, and state and local government class got B in that, only college level class I had. This semester I took math 060 and English 050 again, and I took intro to technology. I had an HP for English and math which is a High pass, you gotta earn a 85% or better to get AN HP, a for my intro class I had an A. The school I would like to transfer to wants 12 college level credits I only have 6, they also want a 2.0 minimum gpa when transferring, they have a 73% acceptance rate for transfers.I currently have 3.5 gpa, can I get into the school?

    You need to stay where you are until you have at least 30 to 60 credits that are transferable. The reason I tell you this is that a 4-year college you will be taking your G.Ed. classes with about 200-3-- other students. That means that many in your math, sciences and English classes. Get your A.A or A.S where you are and then transfer with a really nice GPA. You will do much better and be more successful if you do this.

    Not without another 6 college units. You are doing well. I suggest you continue with college level English and some other course you think you will like. Take something you are pretty sure you'll do well at. One more math class would be good. I would probably take a few extra units before transfer to get solid skills but you are almost ready to transfer. Taking a science class at the CC might be easier than at the transfer school. I advise bio anthropology or geology or geography.

    Good luck!

  • Well maybe you could try again and brag all 12 credits

    or consult a college counsellor

    just remember there is always another option

    and the word "impossible" says

    I AM POSSIBLE
