Bonjour fellow members, I have a quite inane question but I hope you guys can help.
I am currently a senior in high school. Seeing today is October 1st, I filled out my CSU Mentor and other college stuff. A little background: 3.2 GPA Student (Mainly I have this GPA because I thought I was cool and took about 4 AP Classes and got Ds all first semester then I dropped them), 3 years in basketball, currently in Golf, member of MUN for 4 years (Model United Nations), in the Fellow Christian Athletes Club for 4 years, Key Club for 4 years, and Honor Roll for 1 year, and Avid for 4 years. I'm Mexican/American decent, my parents income is probably around $25,000. Not great, I know. My resume doesn't look great right? Yeah I know.
Let's get to the question. Okay, ever since I was in middle school, I wanted to go to UCLA. Seeing my GPA, I don't think I will get in. But I'm still going to apply because you never know. So my main goal is to go to UCLA but I can't get in with my high school transcript. My teacher (Avid teacher), counselor, and parents are encouraging me to a Cal State instead. But I don't agree. I want to go to UCLA and eventually after graduating going to their dental school. (I plan to become a dentist and after a while start my own dental office, yes that's my dream.) So what I want to do is go to a community college, preferably Santiago Canyon College, and after two years, try to transfer to UCLA. But I don't know if I can get the grades and do everything to make me a top student to transfer.
So I am asking forour y opinion or perspective of what I should do? Thank you all, hope you have a wonderful month.
