Hello CC Community,
I have had some serious issues in my life. I don’t know what I am doing wrong, but I can’t seem to do anything about it. Anyway, I am currently a Sophomore. rising Junior and I want to know some advice. If anyone has been in my situation, how they improved. I have always been a person with A’s and maybe a B here and there. Recently I have gotten two C’s mostly B’s and two A’s (easy classes). I want to turn that around next year. Here is my current schedule:
AP Psychology: 79
Chemistry Honors I: 75
World History: 87
Geometry: 86
Robotics: 91
Latin II: 94
Tenth Literature and Composition: 88
GPA (UW): 3.0
Previously I had a 3.8, but had difficulty in subjects. I had a B in AP Psychology, but passed the Final, so my grade dropped. I took these classes before and dropped:
AP Psychology
Chemistry I Honors
AP World History:86
Accelerated Math B: 71
Robotics
Latin !
Tenth Literature and Composition Honors: 77
I had a bad start. because of unexpected course load, reading a couple of chapters a day in APWH, didn’t complete homework in math, resulting in bad test grades (pace was fast as well), Honors lit was fine, but I failed a test which was stupidly easy. I didn’t know how hard the classes were and should have taken only Honors Lit and APWH as I could take AP Psych Senior year or replace it with something like AP Physics A. Next years schedule:
Advanced Algebra
AP Environmental Science
AP U.S. History
Production Enterprises
Latin II
American Literature
Course load is doable for sure next year. Anybody got tips on USHAP/APES classes? I hope I will do good in those. In AP U.S. I am scared, because tests have tons of long DBQ’s and two long essay prompts in the end of the test in which you have forty five minutes to complete. I can’t drop any classes, due to tons of complications last year with people waving out of classes mid semester. Any help? Thanks in advance.
