<p>Ok so I am in a "governor's academy for engineering studies" high school. The curriculum for the program during senior year is rough as crap for me. We have to pass (ok not just pass but do well in. The whole "pass" thing is BS) Ap Calc, an AP science (I'm doing AP chem), and something called senior seminar (circuit analysis, statics, & dynamics.... crap college sophmores/juniors do. Right now we're doing circuits). Needless to say I'm not doing so hot in them(I'm only half way through the semester though). I got a D in Calc, a C in Senior Seminar, and a B+ in Chem. Chem is a respectable grade but Calc and Seminar are KILLING me. The grade really doesn't reflect my knowledge of the material because I didn't do the summer assignments for them (I really slacked over the summer. I came into school WAY under prepared and have been playing catch up). So I got a big giant ZERO in each of the classes for it. If I didn't have these zeros I would probably have a letter grade higher in each class. But anyway. Is this gonna screw my college chances? Should I trully freat about it? I mean freating over things is good to some degree because it kicks you into gear but freating for too long will shut you down emotionally. </p>
<p>Regardless of whether I worry or not though I need to up these grades. Any advice for Calc, Chem (its still hard as hell), and the seminar topics?</p>
