UCs accepting 3.0 from hs year.

College Questions

I was unfortunately extremely depressed my sophomore and junior year due to family issues and it caused a really bad tank on my grades leaving me with a 3.0 unweighted and a 3.3 weighted gpa. I took several APs and honors such as honors chem, AP psychology, and AP biology. I ended with a 4 in AP psych and a 3 in AP bio. As a senior I’m currently taking AP literature, AP environmental science, and AP government. No SAT, but I run a small business that made over 3.5k and I’m vice president/cofounder of a club alongside 50+ hours as a hospital volunteer. I know I’m cooked and that community college/UC Merced are the best chances for me, but I worked so hard my high school year and really just want to escape from my home. Going to cc to me sounds like I just wasted my time in hs when I took all those advanced classes juggling between my academic life and personal life at home.
