Math isn't exactly my best subject.
Well, let's just say I'm not the greatest person ever at math. I actually try really hard. I do all of the extra credit things, I practice online and I pay attention during class, but I just can't seem to make a good grade. I've tried going to the extra help things at my school with my math teacher, but it doesn't help.
My average for the nine weeks this time was a 79. Is there something that anyone knows of that I can go to for help? Also, do colleges look at middle school grades or is it only high school grades?

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
You probably think that 79 is a low grade because you might have been getting 80s and 90s in elementary and earlier middle school. My teachers at the beginning of this year all told us, "Don't worry about getting lower marks because that's just a regular thing as the grades go up". 79 is /not/ a bad mark, depending on what grade you are in, it's good-pretty good. So don't worry!!
As for you second question, I think it's only high school, but I have no idea.

If you think about it, a 79 is one point away from an 80, which is excellent in my book. (I have a 60 average) So, if your in middle school, I wouldn't worry too much. If your planning on going to a public high school, you should be fine with getting in. College (that I know of) only looks at high school grades. But because they only look at high schools grades, it doesn't mean you should slack off in middle school. Hope I helped.

79 isn't bad at all. Don't try to to be extremely good at something you aren't gifted at, just give it your best shot.
And colleges do -not- look at middle school grades.
They barely look at the first two years of high school. All that matters on college applications is your GPA, the marks on courses that go on your transcript and your extracurriculars.
Don't get too caught up on studies when you're this young. You have your entire life ahead of you to be serious.
