Question:
I have eight Fs on my high school transcript, two of which are WFs. Am I precluded from redeeming myself as if I got straight As over there?

My high school grades are by far the lowest of everyone in my entire family, for all of the following reasons:

(A) I refused to complete any assignment the teachers attempted to intimidate me into working on.
(B) I never bothered to take notes because I never saw any need to do so, despite my test grades.
(C) I refused to complete any homework because I didn't like it that it was assigned capriciously.
(D) I often lashed out at any teacher who intentionally and willingly treated me discourteously.
(E) I complained about how frequently I got tested and how infrequently I got assigned projects.
(F) I complained about how AP and honors students always got special privileges, like field trips.
(G) I refused to take unit tests when a teacher was especially discourteous to me on purpose.

I am going to Bucks County Community College beginning August 24th. It was the only college that would accept me. No four-year college would have even considered an application I would have sent because I have not an SAT or ACT score, or any kind of resume, only a high school transcript with eight Fs on it, two of which are WFs. I graduated high school at age 21 instead of age 18. My mother was worried I would not have been ready for any postsecondary education if I had graduated at the end of the first of my three years as a high school senior. For years now, it has been my goal to live an upper middle class lifestyle in a large house in an upper middle class New York City suburb. Can I do that?

Yep. Abso-freaking-lutely. You're forever branded a failure in life. Good luck! Better get to work learning how to drive that garbage truck. Try not to get trash juice all over yourself!

Hopefully at your age, you've learned not to be such a twât. Otherwise you'll continue to get Fs, and they'll stand for "fuckup".

Not until you grow up maturity wise and put effort into it.

It is very doubtful due to all of your past failures.

That means you're not really living.

If you change your attitude, you might change your life. Good luck with that.
