Hi Naomi, does your school use weighted or unweighted GPA? If it’s weighted then try to take more rigorous classes and make it a goal to get mostly A’s/B’s; if unweighted and course rigor isn’t a huge goal for you then take classes that you’re confident you can get A’s in. Some schools also have processes to replace previous grade with an equal class online, I would also look into that. I hope that’s helpful!

Hi,

Schools always look at your progress made. You should take easier classes that help you get back on track and get you motivated as well as taking a mix of the harder/not so pleasant classes and easy/fun classes.
