I have pretty good grades(mostlyA-someB) but it seems like everyone around me are getting 100 averages and stuff! Is that normal, will I be able to get into a good college? I don't know what i want to be. I thought about engineering (working with grades of asphalt and dirt) because of my dads company but i am not sure if i would be able to do all of the math. I am pretty good at it but not outstanding and it isn't my favorite subject, well it might be.......I AM CONFUSED, I NEED HELP!

You will get into college and a great college. I had a 3.17 and I was at the lower 30% of my class and I got into a great university and a good university. Also, when thinking about what you want to major in, don't major in a subject that you only somewhat like. Think about the fact that you have to pay a lot of money for these classes, and what majors do you think are worth that money. If you major in something you hate you might not try as hard.

I'm sure you'll get into a good college, you don't have to have straight A's. It will help to have some activities and/or other interesting things to put on your application and do well on the SAT. As for a major, you don't have to decide right away. You can take a year or two to take classes in a lot of subjects (you'll have to anyway) and get a feel for what you like most and what your strengths are.

Your grades sound really good and you should be able to get into a great college. As for your major, do something that you really want to do. If you do something that someone else wants you to do, you will never be happy and you probably won't try your hardest when your doing it. Just do something that you really have a passion for. Good Luck!!!

your grades sound very good, and good enough to get into a good college (wow i used "good" too many times in one sentence lol)!
as for a major, do what YOU WANT. don't do something just because your dad does it, unless that is truly what you want to pursue. find your passion, and you will learn to enjoy school and your career for the rest of your life.
