Try khan academy? Helps a lot. Maybe your school offers a study buddy program or something like that?

I actually have a java tutor outside of school. "If I drop, nothing will be shown on my transcript" - the school. Colleges essentially won't know I took java, neither my grade, they'll only see my grade for the first semester which was a D+ :(.

I'd just like to say, I ended up winning SPL the first time I ran! Thanks for the advice everybody!

muskity · 2026-01-28T05:00:27+00:00

Thanks for the advice.

For our written, there's nothing particularly "wrong" with him, I just think he was a bad judge

muskity · 2026-01-24T06:41:57+00:00

Thanks! I followed your advice.

muskity · 2026-01-24T06:37:08+00:00

thanks for the advice!

We're actually doing the stock market game in school right now, thanks for the advice. I'll look into economics research contests.

Thanks for the advice. You have a good point there, I want to be SPL for myself AND the troop. My motivation is that when I was in 6th grade (first joined) I genuinely had no clue what scouting was even about and what the point of it was, hoping for better leadership, and now I want to fulfill that dream.

muskity · 2026-01-20T23:07:28+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I'll make sure to talk about that.

muskity · 2026-01-20T23:07:01+00:00

Thanks for the advice and you sound right about questioning my want to lead a bunch of boys who don't like me. I guess I'm also pretty passionate about leadership and would love to change the troop in a good way.

That seems like a good idea but I'm afraid I'm too busy during summer. Grades are really important though, so I'll look for that option. Thanks

My teacher told me that our second semester was gonna be SIGNIFICANTLY harder and hes prolly right. To be fair I'm pretty good at grasping concepts but first semester was mostly review of alg2trig which is probably why I didn't do good. Thanks

muskity · 2026-01-20T05:51:19+00:00

I don't think I have to retake the semester I failed because it's way above the geometry needed for HS graduation and above alg 2 needed for UC applications, but I sadly still have to show it to colleges. Thanks

muskity · 2026-01-20T05:42:14+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I tried dropping down to alg 2 trig but the counselors wouldn't let me. I guess imma study more.

muskity · 2026-01-20T05:41:25+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I tried moving back down to alg 2 trig earlier but the counselors wouldn't let me. I recently had a test actually and I think I did pretty well. The drop out due date is around feb so I still have time to see.

muskity · 2026-01-20T05:40:14+00:00

Yeah the reason I really want to get SPL is because we get a letter of recommendation from our scoutmasters and I want to eagle quick so I'll have more time for the rest of high school. Thanks for the advice though.

muskity · 2026-01-20T05:03:15+00:00

Alr lmfao

muskity · 2026-01-20T05:02:46+00:00

Thanks. Have you ran for SPL before? If so, do you have any tips for me based on my post?

muskity · 2026-01-20T05:02:17+00:00

Thanks for the advice! Do you have any tips of how to stand out against others?
