Can i get into a top college if i am not amazing at math?
i am a very bright kid, and a very good student as well. i am in all advanced cles and get extremely good grades, except for in math. i have dysgraphia, which makes it difficult for me to understand mathematical symbols and numbers on paper, even though i am conceptually very good at math (i scored in the top 96th percentile on the math section of the psat, and scored in the 96th and 99th for writing and reading, respectively). however, my grades in math do not reflect this. i am beginning to worry about getting into college because of the discrepancies between my mathematical and verbal abilities. can i still make it into a top college if i have all a's (or the equivalent of with ap/honors weighting) except for in math cl (i probably have the equivalent of a b or c)? dropping down to a lower level math cl to get a better grade is not an option. i also get accomodations for my disability, so that is not the problem.
