I am so screwed.

I recommend taking an AP course online over the summer through CTY (or a similar organization) to show that you are truly committed to academics. Perhaps when you apply to colleges you could mention how this grade is not reflective of your true academic potential blah blah blah. It’s not the end of the world, just be realistic and don’t get your hopes up for admission to a tippy top tier school because let’s face it, admission to an ivy (or similarly ranked school) isn’t likely for all of us. Still apply, just don’t write that you’d like to major in anything math/science/engineering related because then the D could raise red flags.
