Biggest Bind I've ever Been In

<p>I wasn't sure what section to put this in, so I stuck it in this one. Forgive me if it should be somewhere else.</p>

<p>So...I just got into FSU...WHOO! :)
My transcript was all nice, my extracurriculars were awesome, and my test scores were good! I worked really hard but after hearing everyone who got in that were all slackers on FB, it was like everyone and their mom got in. :/
But I'm really happy 'cause if money permits, I get to go! And worst case scenario, I just go to a community college- not a huge deal and it's a money saver, but I don't feel like it'd fit me, you know? </p>

<p>But on to bigger problems...
I was taking a dual enrollment math class and this semester I failed with an F so I'm not allowed to take the next semester. FSU doesn't know about this F and I've emailed them twice but they haven't responded. (I know you're going to ask why I didn't get help or get out of the class. Trust me, I tried. My guidance counselor did not let me switch out and even with tutoring I failed the tests.) So at this point there's nothing I can do to save the grade. Now I have to take another math (ATM- Advanced Topics in Math- it's like Liberal Arts II) to get Bright Futures because I need 4 math credits.</p>

<p>8th grade- Algebra I Honors
9th grade- Geometry Regular
10th grade- Integrated Math (Liberal Arts) but this math DOESN'T COUNT towards Bright Futures!
11th grade- Algebra II Honors online
12th grade- failed College Algebra (MAC 110something) and to replace it I take one half credit of Advanced Algebra online and the other half at school called ATM. </p>

<p>There are many problems within this situation. First off, I might get rescinded. And just hearing that word is downer because for 5 years I've struggled with depression, ocd, etc. and worked so hard to get admitted to a university...and now this happens. I've heard failing a dual enrollment class is an automatic rescindment but I'm keeping my other grades up and really kicking it up this semester. It's disappointing because Bright Futures and FSU is riding on this and I don't even want to study anything with math. I want to write! What do you think of me being rescinded?</p>

<p>Second of all, there might might might still be some hope. My schools offers Adult Education after school and I might be able to take a math, but I don't know which one. If someone had told me Integrated/Liberal Arts Math doesn't count towards university admission/ BF, I would have found other opportunities. </p>

<p>This is just terrible. :(
Thanks for all your insight, even if it's just to boost up my self esteem lol. But I really need advice here and I appreciate your words. :)</p>

<p>You’ve done the right thing in contacting the school. They might rescind you or they might just put you on academic probation to start with.</p>

<p>I hope, and believe, they’ll respect your determination, and will also respect that you’re bringing this up before they are.
so many really bright people have a VERY hard time with math. surely you aren’t the only one who’s had to deal with this.
the fact that you’re coping with OCD and depression, and persevering, ought to be an enormous point in your favor. hang in there.</p>
