<p>Yes, I did work my tail off this semester. Even though my grades don’t show it, I did. I attended all of my classes, even went to the tutoring center on campus to get some help with classes. I raised my cumulative GPA up above a 2.0, which is well above the retention requirements due to my credit hours. I still struggled this semester with some courses, but I ended up passing all of them and ended up grade replacing 2 courses in which i failed the previous semester. So yes, I did work my tail off.</p>
