Freshman Grades


Question Posted Monday March 13 2006, 9:56 am

Okay, up til 9th grade I've had great grades. None have been below an 85. Now, Freshman year I've failed one, and had low 70's in two others. I honestly don't know what to do. I turn in all my homework, I listen in class, my parents have had meetings with the teachers. My biggest concern is Algebra 1, it ahh is so confusing to me. But my teacher also helps in the confusion, she doesn't know how to teach!

Anyway, I'm just wondering if anyone their first year of highschool experienced a difference in grades, or had the same situation as me. Thanks.

Lots of people have that problem. The change from middle school to high school is a big one and the workload can really pile up. One solution I have for you is to try hiring a tutor. If it worked for me, it can work for you

hope i helped♥

Well if you haven't taken algebra before this then yeah, it's gonna be really confusing! I took like the beginning parts of it before and so I can kinda follow along but the people that haven't are really struggling. It just takes time to click and to really understand it and in high school, you don't have a lot of time to really learn anything, you have to memorize most of it. My grades were somewhat better than the first time I took algebra but they are still not-so-great. get a tutor or someone to help you one on one. for the other classes, get your homework done then review your notes everynight. good luck! <3
