I got a D in geometry for the first semester and have a F currently I got a tutor and nothing seems to be working, plus my teacher is just not great most people in her class are having F’s in her class I mean there is always people with A’s and B’s but I keep trying to increase it but I’m just worried that if I get a D for the full year I don’t know if I should retake it with that same teacher and plus I want to go to a community college because I have bad grades like a 2.3 ish got C’s and higher in everything else except geometry if I get a D for the full year and I’m trying to go to a community college should I retake it?
Are you a high school Junior? It sounds like you are, and you are trying to figure out whether or not to retake Geometry in your Senior year? If so, I think that you should try to retake Geometry. Hopefully, you will do better the second time around, and if you get extra help right from the beginning.
Whatever happens, you can continue wherever you ended up in Math, when you go to a community college. They will probably give you a placement test that will indicate which Math course you ought to take. It might cost a little money, but you could probably go over there today and take that test to see where they would place you.
I would also give you some unsolicited advice: take a writing class so that you learn more about how to punctuate sentences.
I’m currently a sophomore so it’s my second year in high school but my teacher is bad in honest truth so many people fail her class of course there is some people that get A’s and B’s but believe me I tried to pass the first semester retook tests and I only ended up getting a D in the first semester right now I’m failing and I pass the whole year with a D I don’t know if I should retake it
In most high school math sequences, Geometry is the prerequisite course for Algebra II. Ideally, you should emerge from high school having completed at least Algebra II, so that you will be prepared to take college-level math (and other courses that require Algebra II skills). Also, most states require that you take at least 2 years, more typically 3 years, of Math in order to graduate. Given all of those conditions, I think that you really need to complete Geometry by the end of your Junior year, so that you can take Algebra II as a Senior.
I don’t see you as having many choices if your plan is to go on to college. If you don’t graduate from high school having completed Algebra II, then they will require to take a similar course when you get to college.
I was you in 2012 having the same problem! I re-took the class. Just do your best and try to absorb as much information as possible so when you re-take it you already know some stuff. I went to a CC for two years and now I am at UCSC. I struggled with geometry and trig especially but I now have an accounting internship this coming summer. I know it seems impossible now (if you are feeling like I did then) but you can do it! At the CC you will take a math placement test and then they will say what math and english class you have to start at taking there so the more you learn in HS the better but don’t worry!
Thanks (: I’m planning to try my best to pass with a C so I don’t retake it in the summer or take summer school so I don’t have to take a whole year of it again and be in algebra 2 as a junior
