<p>I should have worked harder my freshmen year in Economics. That class was a joke considering the teacher was really old and wasn’t a very good teacher … No offense. Although, he was nice.</p>
<p>I should have worked harder in Hon. Precalculus. After I kept getting bad test grades 3 times in a row, I should have done something about it instead of nothing. I stayed after school to go over them, but it was too late. I was lucky enough to not get an absolutely horrific class average. However, I did improve a LOT in Honors Calculus and received a 95 on the final with an A- in the class, so I hope colleges can see I stepped up.</p>
<p>I should have pushed myself harder in Comp. (History + English class). That class was a freaking mess. It was incredibly hard, brutal, and felt unfair. But, whatever. What’s done is done. It’s in the past. I celebrated to myself when that year long class was over. Sure, I was disappointed with my grade, but I couldn’t bear it any longer.</p>
<p>Oh, and I should have been more outgoing, participated more in class, took leadership roles, doubled up in math and science (Didn’t know you could freshmen year! I’m any only child, so I wasn’t aware you could).</p>
<p>There’s a lot of things I wish I had done …</p>
<p>It was a different girl that I referred to in my post. But that girl knows this girl, they’re all friends. it’s an asian connection. I have talked to this girl, online, but I haven’t seen her in a while. I’ll probably see her when school starts.</p>
<p>Ah, okay. Well, good luck. I hope it all works out for you.</p>
<p>Need to add another regret: I should have taken TASP seriously, and not as just another random summer program sending me a packet. Especially since I’ve been looking at Deep Springs. I feel like I missed out on an opportunity.</p>
<p>I am only a sophomore and I already have some regrets:</p>
<p>I should have taken more honors classes freshman year, joined track and cross country freshman year, should have tried dating, should have gotten an A+ instead of an A- my first semester of Italian class, and should have done a better choir audition. Basically, I wasn’t really a screw up because I got straight A’s, joined a lot of clubs, and won a few school awards, but I should have done better.</p>
[ul]Should’ve tried harder overall. I didn’t give it my all, and I regret that.
[<em>]Inconsistency in academics, co-curricular activities, and mood.
[</em>]Acrimonious relationships with some teachers.
[<em>]Being an all-around assshole when it was uncalled for.
[</em>]Not self-studying for some AP exams I was interested in.
[<em>]Not seriously studying for the SAT or the PSAT.
[</em>]Letting my psychological problems get the better of me.
[li]Alienating myself from my family.[/ul]</p>[/li]
<p>The last one is probably my biggest regret, as I know I can never recover the relationships. Don’t burn your bridges, folks - especially not with your mother.</p>
<p>Freshman Year:
-Should’ve fixed the grade glitch from Health class. Got a B and now my GPA will never be perfect…
-Should’ve joined any extra curricular, lol</p>
<p>Sophomore Year:
-Should’ve worked harder in the first semester of French. Could’ve gotten an A
-Should’ve joined more ECs</p>
<p>Junior Year (I’m 1 week in):
-I should drop APES, I hate this stupid class. I think I’m going to switch into Physics because this class sucks so much, and I may have some time left… <em>fingers crossed</em></p>
<p>i lol’d @LAXer25 but i regret not really joining anything freshman year, all i did was some ACT prep classes after school and football conditioning, which i might not do because i might have to transfer schools since mines might be shut down. oh well</p>

<p>… Here I am entering Senior year with a GPA that could have been much better. If I tried harder, I could be looking at a complete different list of colleges.</p>
<p>Freshman/Sophomore Year:
Shoulda been more careful with who i trust and make my friends (cuz they dont care bout school, pressure me, or are flat out backstabbers) and worked harder in school
Coulda have a 3.9 GPA instead of a 3.5 weighted
Woulda have not disappointed my parents and my true friends =/</p>
