About
I came into the United States three years ago. I used to live with my brother in Oklahoma until he had to move to a new military base (he is in the military.) We moved to Louisiana at the beginning of my sophomore year. That was in 2020 and I was doing remote learning but when we moved, I wasn't able to keep working on my courses since I didn't have any personal laptop. I wasn't to take the first semester exam so I didn't receive any credits. After that, I left my brother and came to live with my father in Springfield, IL. I continued my sophomore year here and I had straight As the second semester. I also took summer to earn credits to fill the first semester.
That really messed up my class rank courses and everything. If it wasn't because of that, I'll have a higher GPA.
-I have a GPA of 4.3 right now. (4.0 weighted scale)
