i might miss 1 or 2 credits this year & i am in grade 9. It's not cuz i skipped school or anything, i missed school because of a medical issue and i am going to get 2 credits this semester instead of 4. I am planning on going to university and was wondering whats going to happen with that, will i still be able to get into college after going to summer school in high school? Everybody (teachers, family & friends) is telling me this will be like it never happen in a couple years but im still worried.

As long as you get your credits in and graduate high school with good grades, it shouldn't matter that you missed school. If you have a medical reason then you will definitely be fine. There was one guy at my high school who dropped out for a year to work after his dad died in an accident. He finished high school a year later and it didn't effect his chances of getting into college.

I never failed a course in high school, but I got to University and had to do this one math course, but I never attended and never did the assignments, so I failed. I thought it would be the end of the world, and it almost was pretty bad because I came close to being on academic probation... (in education faculty you have to keep a certain GPA, and to stay in the university at all you have to keep a 2.0... so a 0 pulled me really down for that semester since I didn't do well in the other classes either). Pull it together, work harder, study more, do math in groups (surprisingly math is a great group activity... keeps you motivated, and you can compare answers in the end, and figure out why you did a question right/wrong)

It would be a good idea to talk with your school counselor. How many credits do you need to be admitted to college? (Or to graduate from high school?) Ask your counselor whether you'll be able to take enough each of the next three years to make up the ones you lost. If he or she foresees any problem, then you can probably catch up by going to summer school.

I'm guessing you don't live in Florida. You are only in 9th grade so there is not much for you to worry about. You still got the whole 4 years to worry about. You have to talk to your guidance couselor. Take night school or take online classes. Take ELP if they have it at your school. You just got to go talk to your guidance couselor. Have you talked to them yet? I recommend you to if you haven't yet.
