I just finished my freshman year of high school.

This is me:

Age: 14

Family Income: Around $250k, I already know I don't qualify for aid
I go to a pretty competitive high school in the upstate.

Grade: Finished 9th going into 10th

Location: SC, USA

Grades:

Geometry Honors: 90

English 2 Honors: 93

Spanish 2 CP: 95

AP Human Geography: 94

Fundamentals of Web Page Design/Dev: 90 (Underqualified teacher basically the friggin packet yo teacher on steroids)

PE 1: 100

Intro to Computer Programming: 90 (Teacher failed my project for asking chatgpt to add something, didn't go on my punishment record)

Biology 1 Honors: 94

Extracurriculars: Cross Country and Track 1 yr, still JV I suck but went to regions and got most improved for JV XC.

Here's a bit about me: I started off decent but in my 3rd quarter I tried to unalive myself and got involuntarily committed which caused my grades to fall. I want to get into a top college someday, such as georgia tech.

These are my classes for next year:

AP World, AP, Psych, AP CSP, English 3 Honors, Chemistry Honors, Algebra 2 Honors, Pre-Calculus Honors, Spanish 3 Honors.
