Ok, so I start off my freshman year next week, and I have 3 very important questions.
-First, will colleges look at freshman grades? I've looked online, and some people say that it depends on what college you plan on applying to, and others say no colleges ever look into your freshman year. Is it true that colleges won't look at your freshman grades at all? The colleges I plan on applying to in the future are Princeton, NYU, and a few other universities, but NYU is my top one, if that helps to answer the question.
-My second question is about extracurricular activities. In my freshman year, I wanted to do 4 clubs. The clubs I want to join are: Key Club, French Club, Library Club, and Teen Fit. I do plan on playing 1 sport this year and that's golf (tryouts not until the Spring). Do you think that this is too much for someone starting off high school? I have a pretty good grip on managing my time, but I really don't want the clubs and sport (if i make it) to have a bad impact on my grades.
-My last question is about Geometry. For the people that have already taken this class, is it that hard? Math is one of the 2 classes I'm best at, science being my #1. But, I do tend to have a harder time with shapes rather than equations themselves. I know that if I have trouble with a subject, I should go to my teacher or a tutor for help, but I just want to know if it's generally an easy, medium, or hard class.
Thanks in advance
