<p>Im in my senior year of high school, and it is not looking to great for me. Im probably going to fail for the year, and if anything get on a credit recovery program for the summer(which would mean I would graduate in August =/. I have been rejected by my #1 college choice, and now im waiting on a letter from a community college. My GPA is atrocious. On top of that, I attend an under-performing HS. Got into this position by slacking off and waking up when it was too late, and essentially carelessness. I guess im reaping all of that now. But anyway, what I want to know is - what could I do to better my chances of getting into a good college next year (if I have to repeat the 12th grade) & should I change schools? Should I try to go to a private school? A better public school? Would any other school even accept me?! Just looking for some insight here. Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>You probably will need to go to community college and get an associates degree with an excellent gpa.</p>
<p>I agree with Northstarmom. Around where I live, people who don’t do well in high school usually go to a community college for a bit and transfer to a state university.</p>
