<p>My freshmen year of high school was pretty okay, i was in ALL Honors, I had a 3.0 gap first semester but 2nd semester I had a 2.8 with a FAIL in Geometry. Sophomore year is the WORST year of my LIFE so far. A LOT of cheating was going on in my classes and my classes are ALL Honors and 1 AP. In my honors chem class everyone cheated and i did not and i FAILED first semester. In my AP WORLD HISTORY class everyone cheated and i got a D and i did not cheat. In my SP 2 class i got a D. 2nd semester of Sophomore year I got a C in AP World History without cheating, B in Honors Chemistry without cheating , and i FAILED SP2. Now i do not know what to do with my life, I feel like giving up. I need some serious advice. I want to go to a 4 year University like NYU but my chances look slim now. I felt like I did the right thing by not cheating but now I'm reconsidering it because I am practically Failing High School. I am going to take 3 APs next year (Junior Year). I need help. Do I have hope?</p>
<p>Aww~! I feel so bad. Just remember, it’ll get better. This year for you is a HUGE wake up call. Also don’t cheat, it’ll get you no where. You still have Junior and Senior to do better. You still have chances so don’t give up. To start, work, work and work. You need to study really hard to keep up and maintain good grades. Please don’t give up, you can do so much better. I had a friend who was going through the SAME thing, and she ended up not graduating which broke my heart because she tried so hard, and gave up. I don’t want to see someone else hit rock bottom, because of one screw up. I’m trying to make this short as possible, but if you need ANYTHING, just pm me. Good Luck! Let’s make it a good year :)</p>
<p>Thank you so much , im in a really bad situation right now and everyone keeps giving me mixed messages which depresses me even more. My plan was to work harder than I do next year but most people say its worthless and it won’t get me anywhere :/. Do you have any advice on what I should do? Do you think I still have a chance for NYU I do really well next year ?</p>
<p>Don’t listen to them. Many students just do that to feel better about themselves. NYU isn’t easy to get into, its SAT scores aren’t low either. If this is your dream school, work hard and try to keep your GPA at least to a 3.5. I think you have a chance if you do well Junior and Senior year. :)</p>
<p>Sophomore year is ****. I wouldn’t give up though, since you still have junior and senior year left.</p>
<p>Does your school have grade forgiveness? Maybe you can talk to a guidance counselor about it and retake some of the courses online. Whatever you do, don’t give up! You CAN do it. You don’t want to wonder, what if I tried those last two years… Good luck with everything :)</p>
<p>I have a 2.6 cumulative gpa unweighted right now. If i can get a 4.0 for both semesters next year then it will be a 3.1. thats not good enough, I’m planning to get a REALLY high SAT score. Im studying for the SATs now AND I’m making up the Fails this summer. I wish I could go back in time, cheat, then pass like everyone else :/. I improved a LOT this semester but i don’t know if it makes a difference. I HATE Sophomore year , Freshmen year everyone told me Sophomore year is the BEST year but it turned out to be the WORST year.</p>
