Ok here is my situation..

I began attending at school "A"
avg high school gpa- 3.6

I want to attend school "b"
avg high school gpa 3.9


I know that I have a very slim chance of getting in, but I think I do have a lot to offer at school B. I left school A(or am leaving at the end of year) because Im absolutely miserable here. I came to play basketball which I am not now. But this school is not where I want to be.

School B is perfect for me. I have already spoke to the basketball coach. It is 5 minutes away from my house. They have an equestrian program. It's beautiful.

*PROBLEM*

I did very poorly here first quarter. Very. And my high school grades are horrible. Im pretty sure I only got in based on basketball.
I do have the advantage that not many people around where I live attend B. I think it's like 80% are out of state. I know so many people there because my bf goes there (blush) and it's so perfect(not just because he goes there). They are a very big liberal arts college, one of the best and are very big on english and writing (my worst) but also have a strong science program(my favorite)

Can anyone help me or give advice on how to get in. How to become a better writer. How to be more in touch with literature(MY HIGH SCHOOL SUCKS). Please this is the only thing I want.

Don't type in grey, pl0x.

Plan your essays, and any piece of writing you have to do.

And also analyze the heck out of any piece of literature you're given.
