Bringing up GPA

not sure if this is the right spot to ask this, but I had a really bad first year at college.

I’m at a 2.4 GPA and i want to get my academics in-line fast. I did horribly in my mathematics class, and I ended up with a D- in the course. I am devastated, but it was my fault for not keeping my priorities straight. I want to move on in a better direction, and make up for my losses.

Can someone help me improve my study habits and explain what I can do this summer to prepare myself for next year? I messed up my first year, and I don’t ever want to do that again. I’ve never done so horribly in my life, and I never want to make this mistake again.

Also, is there any way to “make up” that class? I’m going to be reviewing the entire course material this summer, but are there options for improving upon a grade? My advisor is on leave until next month, so I’d like some help from the forum.

Please help me get myself back on track. This was a completely avoidable situation, and I hate to admit it but I found myself to be terrible at managing all my courses in college. I’m not really a slacker, but when I would put effort into one course, I’d skimp off on another.

That’s that and I need to really move on and never repeat this mistake again.

Thanks.
