Hello! I’m currently a sophomore in high school and I did fairly well my freshman year. I had gotten high B’s and A’s! I was excited upon starting sophomore year, feeling motivated to do better and become a better student. That mindset had changed quickly after 3 marking periods of horrible grades. I have been getting C’s and had even failed a class for the first time in my academic career. I’m very scared and fearful for the future and if anyone has tips on how to improve quickly and earn grades of 93+ please let me know! Also, will low grades on my transcript greatly effect my chances on a selective college? I wanted to go to UC’s, NYU, UT Austin, and more, but I feel that I had ruined my chances. Please respond! Thank you so much!
