So Im a Freshman attending a very competitive school. In middle school i had a 3.96 gpa which is pretty impressive. But, as i come into high school i feel like the transition is so hard and I’ve been extremely unlucky with my teachers.
Current grades
Bio Honors :88%
French 1 :85%
English 1 honors 89%
PE : 100%
Algebra 2:86%
Photography 97%

So the reason for my B’s:
For Bio honors it is completely my fault but i know that i can get it up cuz its rly easy tbh

French 1 : I swear terrible teacher he doesn’t care at all about telling students when test and quiz dates are. He just assigns them and he expects us to know every single thing he teaches after every day its rly annoying. Im not trying to be one of those people that blame my teacher but he is really bad. His lessons are really vague, his memorization is more than bio, and never says when tests are.

English 1 Honors : English is one of my weaker subject so I would be happy with an 89% considering how hard the class is. The teacher is great, its just that the material is hard and everyone as a B in my class.

Algebra 2: Worst teacher I could ever get for math. I swear he is so nit-picky it is so annoying. Basically i got a 100 on my first test and he gave me an 87 for not following “his method” because his was really confusing and I used the method the book actually thought. He wants everything the way he wants to be and grades you so hard I swear to god. Once i got a 50% on a HW assignment because one of the answers i forgot to mark it as wrong because i forgot to add a negative to my answer. The average class grade is a C and they are all Sophomores and Juniors and Nobody really has an A because of how nit picky he is.

Basically all my core classes im doing bad and trying my best but i don’t want to get 3 Bs. Also, i took summer school and took geometry over the summer and It was extremely hard because you would cramn a 2 weeks worth of lessons in 4 days it was overwhelimg for me but i finished with a B. I want to get around 3.75 - 3.80 gpa but it seems impossible and I have been really stressed out about this. I also have some excuses too, my mom’s uncle who was close to me passed away and I have been mourning about this but the death didn’t really psychologically impacted me on to focus on school so IDK.
