Has anyone here completely BOMBED in college their first few years, only to end up figuring +*%* out and coming out with good grades and getting into a good job or whatever?
Dont open spoiler if you think my threads are depressing because thats just gunna prove you right
So yea anyone ever turn things completely around academically and came out with something decent? The point of this thread is for inspirational purposes, both for me and whoever is in my spot as well.

Ever since I've transferred to this school in Fall 09, I've never done well. One of the few regrets I have in my life was going to this school (Queens College in NYC). The school I was in before I was doing better ( York College: Had about a 3.0 and was improving), but then like an idiot I transferred out. Now Im here, doing poorly (2.1) GPA coupled with all the "issues" I've already had growing up even up until now and I'm about ready to snap. I hate this school, but I'm pretty much stuck here due to my low grades and the fact that I owe the school $6,00 dollars (My mother was paying but has stopped for obvious reason (me not doing so well), so I'm gunna just have to pay, God knows how). I'm pretty much at wits end, about ready to blast myself in the head (not sure is srs).
I think the only bright spot in all of this is that I'm still only a lower sophomore, so I guess I still have time to "fix" things
. And that if I can turn things around, I would have one HELL of a Letter Of Intent for grad school (if I decide to go that route).
Edit: Also I'm thinking about taking at least a semester off to get straight. I mean I can't register for classes next semester anyways until that $6000 is paid off so I might as well
But all of that is slightly off-topic. The point of this thread is for inspirational purposes, both for me and whoever is in my spot as well.
