I screwed up my freshman year really bad.?

Question

I hardly showed up to class and chose to hung out with the wrong crown. I litteraly have like 13 credits, if that. I didn't go to summer school either. Is my HS education pretty much over now? I've been really interested in getting into a good college and what not, but no i'm in fear that with how i've messed up freshman year theres no way I can fix it.

Answer 1

I think the best thing you have done is identified that you messed up and want to correct yourself. I highly doubt they look that much at your grades of freshman year; however, depending on how high or low they are, I think you should be fine. Just make sure you hang out with the right crowd and do not get influenced to do things that would mess your college chances up.

Best of luck.

Answer 2

I guess it depends where you're from and where you want to go to school. Here in Ontario Canada all the big universities I know of only look at your marks from your last year of high school. I think in general your first year doesn't count as much as how well you are doing in the year you apply to a particular school. Hope that helps.  

Answer 3

Most colleges ignore your freshman year.  Do well in 10 and 11 and you should be fine.
