How good shape are you in? How many rounds can you sparr before you gas out? What's your current routine? What's your diet like?

What's your general fight strategy and how does it play to your strengths and weaknesses?

Well if you're only 5'2 and 115 lbs than only god can help you son.
Haha just kidding, take BJJ (Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu) and train hard especially on the takedown aspect. If you can't take the guy down you can't finish him and you're pretty damn small so I don't think that would be an easy task for you. You might want to take Judo as well to round out your takedowns. It will also sharpen your ground control and technique in BJJ.

Then you can take a third style for what to do when you're not rolling on the ground. You've definitely got obsticles to overcome with the height. There are many effective styles for a person of your stature, though I'm not going to reccomend one you have to do some research.

1. Look to see what schools are in your area, what styles are available for you to learn from.
2. Take inventory of yourself. You are a smaller person so any art which relies on you taking down your opponent to conclude the battle is probably not going to be for you.
3. GO LOOK AT THE SCHOOL!!! Most good schools let you take a couple of classes free to see if it is for you. Explain your concerns to the instructor and tell him honestly what you are looking to get out of it. But ultimately, you have to feel that the style is good for you.

FINALLY, any advise with regard to what style to take you have to understand is bias as it is probably the style that the person has studied and therefore feels most effective. Nothing wrong with this but as someone who has studied several styles I can tell you that each has a strength and a weakness. You won't find a quick answer as to the style the beats all styles - you have to look into it and try it out.

Oh and having heart will help - it'll give you that extra drive in whatever system YOU choose to study. If you have more specific questions regarding styles then I'd be glad to try and help.

snake style kung fu. you are small, short, and thin then snake style would be perfect for you.

Snake stylists uses very simple, straight and Snake (s bend) techniques both for the hands and legs. Generally aiming with a toe or one finger at a specific target that the Snake practitioner has identified for their current opponent. This will then be executed with minimum energy usage. For the Snake Style is that of a single, accurate, very high efficiency strike or kick.

The Snake style practitioner is never the attacker (much like the Shaolin Crane). It waits patiently for the right moment, the right spot, the right 'opportunity' for it's single, precise attack. It does not use any style of blocking but relies on it's agile body and quick reflexes being enough to avoid any contact what so ever. The Snake allows only one contact and that is it's attack.
