I am so screwed.

As much as I do not like to admit this, aside from the various science/mathematics courses that actually intrigue me, the mundane set of rituals that our teachers call “homework” have absolutely no value to me, therefore the sole goal of doing well in these classes that I have no affinity for is to achieve high grades for the sake of achieving high grades. If achieving high grades is no longer possible, I see no reason to keep up with the pretense. Pursue a field that interests you. I had gotten a low C as well in a core class, instead of working my ass off to raise it up, I decided to not bother and further my interest in other fields that I do have an affinity for, or for me, slacking off =D. These ECs in turn rocketed me into community college. (jk, I was accepted to a good school, so don’t despair)

EDIT: Although my presumptions may not apply, as I emphasize on the rational nature of academics, in which case I’ve also justified to myself that there is no need to study for the SAT or any other types of standardized testing as they have no lasting impact on my academic career and merely serve temporary roles. If you feel otherwise, please do not take my advice into consideration.
