I'm in this program, thats suppose to help you with your grades. It teaches you like study skills and such. I already know all of that. The only reason my grades arn't as good as they should be, is because I make small mistakes. Like, forgetting to put a negative sign next to a number. You know what I mean? So, I basically want out of it. I talked to my guidance counselor twice. And she keeps telling me to think about it. I know she doesn't want me to drop it. But, I want to do whats best for me. My mom and dad also agree I should drop it. How can I convince my guidance counselor to let me drop it?

IF you do well on some quizzes, tests, and homework and show the guidance couselor that you are perfecty capable doing it yourself then the guidance counselor will agree. The fact is it is your decision and your guidance counselor can't make the decision for you. Thats actually against school regulation becasue a counselor is suppose to counselor you into making your own decisions and not make them for you. A way to stop making those simple mistakes is by taking a deep breathe before and after. Don't rush trying to finsh the test but relax and take your time. This relaxation will help you to prove you don't need someone to tell you what you already know. [ Advicelady6798's advice column | Ask Advicelady6798 A Question ]
