<p>From how it sounds, your only option might be to go to a cc. Doing well in a cc will give you a lot of opportunity, but keep your expectations realistic. Why do you want to go to MIT so bad anyway? It's a very techy school for people who well versed in math and science (i.e. not you).</p>
<p>Well, I took a computer programming class in HS and I found it an extremely fun class to have. But I was forced to drop it. I had an A+ for the time I had the class (one semester). Really that's the only evidence I have to suggest that I would enjoy developing skills for a computer science/engineering career. Although it says little about my math skills.</p>
<p>But again, that is why I want to go to a CC and develop my math and engineering skills.</p>
<p>I wanted to go to MIT because I knew it was amazing school to be a part of. But I also know that my chances are slim. I will apply to multiple colleges that are not as high ranked.</p>
<p>"Well, the thing I just realized is that I have not taken any AP or Honors classes in all of HS. And also I am only able to get a standard diploma. I have not taken any elective classes that are relevant to what I want to do.</p>
<p>I also feel that my knowledge of foundation math and geometry is close-to nonexistent. I wanted to take a couple summer classes at Blue Ridge as it should be a lot cheaper, and I can get free transportation there."</p>

<p>Seriously?</p>
<p>I passed my math classes, but I feel that I don't remember enough.</p>
<p>And it looks like I will not be getting any further help. Thanks for those who responded.</p>
<p>I honestly think your best bet would be pursuing MIT for grad school and focus on doing your best at a small undergrad school for now.
(I'm not familiar with MITs acceptance rate for grad students, but I assume you'd stand a better chance applying for grad school.)
Good luck, and don't let it get you down.</p>
<p>Oh, I'm sorry then I was judging from what you said in your earlier post. I respect that you have the passion and desire to go to a school like MIT. Unfortunately, I have to agree with everyone else in this thread and say that you should focus on getting a good GPA first, and then deal with your college apps and decisions later.</p>

<p>Of course.</p>
