hey manna, I greatly appreciate your advice, but what exactly is that and how do I go about it? If i am unable to do that,how long do you think it would take me to prove to other coleges that I am capable of performing well academically? I am extemeley desperate when it comes to getting back on the right track A.S.A.P. The thing is, I have not yet told my parents. I am trying to firgure out what to do first. I feel so hopeless. Going to school and just taking classes seems like a waste of time and money.
