I know that some of you guys don't take school seriously. I am in 10th grade now. I have an OK gpa, but would like it to be way higher. In 9th grade, I did good, but not good enough. I have a 93 average which is an A. I wish I would have paid more attention to my work. I was mad at myself. I did improve, though. The last nine weeks of 9th grade I got a 100, 99, 99, and 95. The first 9 weeks of 10th grade I got a 100, 97, 95, and a 92 in an accelerated class. I am doing pretty good now. I am trying to get into a vet school where only 25 people in the state of Mississippi can get in a year. You must have an A average and get a 26 or higher on the ACT. I am working hard at it. I just want to tell you guys that school is important. Some of you guys don't take school seriously. I just want to let you know because one day you may look back and notice that you made a mistake. Your junior or senior year is too late to change it.

I did just what I needed in highschool to get into the college I wanted. No more no less. I knew what I needed and I got it. I could have done much better but felt it was unecessary. I'm ready to work my tail off in college next year. I feel that college directly affects your work so I'm going to do my best.

School sucks i only go because i have 2. I do what i need to 2 get through i still maintain a C+ average school is supposed 2 be fun not worrying about grades and all that crap 24/7. I've gone through school this way every year so far and i'm a senior. I will change and study for college a lil bit though...

Schools fun. I have an A average. But thats only in 7th grade.

It doesn't matter what your average is, it's the fact that you try. There is this program I am trying to get into. It is a vet school. Less than 25 people out of the state get in that class. You have to have an average of 90 or above in high school and a 26 on the ACT. I don't want you guys to be in your senior year and realize that you had to have a 93 (that's an A down here) average to take the class you need. If that is the case, you just blew your shot.

u know when ur a junior or senior you can still change it. but the fact that some people dont care is fine with me, i mean i care but school just comes hard to me. i just got my report card back A, B, C, C, C, D that is the worst reportcard iv ever had. so uh zak sorry im not one of those "smart kids" [8D]

Don't you guys get Grade Point Averages. I have no idea what my percent is but we get a GPA based on a 4.0 scale.

School shouldnt be taken TOO seriously, you have your whole life to work hard, but only a few years of youth (relatively) I dont really like school, and I dont really need grades that are all that great either because I'm going to be attending a local Tech School to become a mechanic. I have decent grades (all b's, except for chemistry, which is an f because I slacked off the first 9 weeks, but the grade is coming up now) The only classes I really care for are Autotech and Spanish... Half of my classes are junior/senior classes and I'm only a sophmore, so if I dont do so well I have time to make it up, although I would prefer not to. You need to have some fun now, like going to football games and partying, and of course hittin up the ladies dont be so uptight
