<p>I realize that I failed Geometry in my freshman year. How should I explain this on my application?</p>

<p>Also, can you folks also recommend any other common clubs that I should join to improve my application?</p>

<p>Thanks a lot for your help.</p>

<p>Don't join clubs just to make it look good on your app. Seriously. Adcoms will pick up on that.</p>

<p>you've definitely improved since 9th grade (from 65% in geom to 99% in alg 2!), so as long as you keep up the good work I think you have a good chance.</p>
