I Have an F on my transcript.

<p>I am a high school junior who this year enrolled into a college english class. i have done a few assignnments but got really focussed on football and now i have an F on my transcript. i have a 3.6 gpa in highschool and I'm #3 out of 80 students in my grade level. how can this affect my future?</p>

<p>Very, very badly.</p>

<p>Any way you can do something about it?</p>

<p>Can you enroll in the class over the summer and get an “A?” Some community colleges will average the two grades so you’d end up with a “C.” You’ll have to ask your guidance counselor how it will affect you current applications. Good luck.</p>

<p>This isn’t good. It doesn’t average into your GPA since it’s probably a 0.0, which will bring it down SO much. You must live in a small town with 80 students in your grade level. I don’t know, it’s not too good for your admission chances.</p>

<p>@tacoperson123‌ you make some false assumptions. OP could be in a private school- many have small graduating classes. Also, an F does average into your GPA, even if you retake it. GPA is credits earned, over attempted so you would add 0 to the numerator and 4 to the denominator. But if it was retaken and you received an A, you would have (0+4)/2 = 2, a C.</p>

<p>OP, as long as you retake the class, it should not be that big of an issue.</p>

<p>Thanks i can retake it next semester </p>
