I'm in the same position, but I'm a senior and with close to 81 days left of school I freaked out.
I only have 4 classes total,
Application Development
English
Computer Science AP
Physics
and out of those I'm only passing App Dev and CS AP.. I've taken state tests and what not saying I'm proficient in English at a college level, my only problem is not doing the work.
My advice to you to get your grades up, which is what I'm starting to do now.
Ask your teachers for any extra credit, show that you're willing to try and mean it. They love that shit apparently..
I get home around 3:30-4, as soon as I do that I go straight to doing my work till dinner. Eat dinner, take a break till I get ready for bed and work on my homework till I fall asleep. Take any free time you can to do work, but give yourself a breather here and there. To much work can actually be really bad and stress you out.
Just know if you actually try and show to your teachers/councilors that you're willing to try, most likely they'll be more likely to throw you a bone and maybe even give the class a day or two with no work.
Good luck man,
Class of 2014
P.S. Good tip I learned from reddit, if you listen to Video Game music (nothing like battle music) it may even help you stay focused and relaxed. The music is meant to be more ambient and not distract the user, so apply it to your working time. I have a playlist with a mix of video game music and for some breaks during my study time I added in some punk, rap and alternative. I'd put it on Spotify, but I'm sure half the music isn't on there.. I'll attempt to make one later and PM or post it here if I can. Here's a link to a playlist made in the comments of the post I read.
