<p>I'm a junior in high school. Before this year I had a 3.13 GPA, not great obviously, but a 2.6 the first semester of freshman year definitely brought it down.</p>
<p>I came into this year thinking everything would go well. First semester was ok, 3.2 ish GPA, I was very disappointed because I ended up with a C in Chem and a C+ in Algebra, yikes. But I was doing well enough in my other classes, lowest grade was a B- in AP Lang which obviously is weighted.</p>
<p>This semester...it's awful. And it keeps getting worse. Somehow everything has gone wrong and it's supposed to be the most important semester of high school. I got overwhelmed by participating in the musical, which I played a big part in, and not understanding the material in Alg and Chem but not having time to see my teachers. I ended up failing both classes and have been struggling since March to get them up to B-s. Those are counted as 3.0s in my school, so it wouldn't be that bad even with the minus tacked on.</p>
<p>I got my Algebra and Chem grades up to C-s by working my butt off -- seriously, they've both gone up 20+ points. But it's not good enough. I don't know what to do - the lowest test score I've gotten in Alg since trying to bring my grade up is an 86 or something, and Chem (which is immensely difficult and I had to get a tutor for) I've earned 85s+ on assessments and turned in all the homework thoroughly completed.</p>
<p>I'm trying my best, I swear. But my AP Euro grade dropped down to a C (75) and I don't know how to make it go up, we haven't had many assignments this semester, mainly quizzes and tests. AP Lang was at a B- on the cusp of a B (and I mean very cusp - last week I had an 81.99 when an 82.00 is a B) but for some reason a group assignment that was turned in late is still a 0/50 and now I have a 77 in the class. Algebra and Chem just aren't going up fast enough. And my French grade dropped to a B from an A because of a misunderstanding.</p>
<p>ON TOP OF ALL THAT, I missed an appointment for LINK crew and have been removed from the club. I also missed a meeting for Thespian and I might not get inducted as an International Thespian despite having more than enough points to qualify, I still don't know yet.</p>
<p>There are only 2 weeks left of school and this is the lowest my GPA has been since freshman year. I don't know what to do. I'm trying my best to get my grades up and I work for hours every day but nothing's happening and I'm afraid that no matter how good the grades I get for the last couple weeks are, nothing will happen and I'll get rejected from every respectable college.</p>
<p>I'm disappointed in myself and I take the blame for falling behind. But I'm being as responsible as I can trying to catch up, and I don't know if anything will get better.</p>
