Yes it is possible to recover but you have to work hard because going back up the gpa scale is harder than going down. You need to learn study and time management skills. I think many high school students come to college expecting professors to treat them the same like the high school teachers did and they get an awful shock. In college, they hold you to a higher level of expectation because they consider you to be an adult.
When you get into the upper division level the expectations are even higher. As one college professor said in one of my classes “don’t expect me to hold your hand while you cry about your bad grades, you earn the grades you get”. Ouch, but he’s right.
