ok. you are not a dummy like that other guy said. a 69 isn't a good grade, but it is not failing. You only need 1 percentage point to get to a C, but I can tell that this isn't really the problem. If I were you, for the next week, I would practically revolve my life around Trignometry. I know it sounds horrible, but hopefully it should pay off if you pass your final. Here are some possible ideas that hopefully should help:
1) See your teacher. Ask him/her if there is any possible way you could make a tutoring session with him/her or another student who is doing well. If you are able to scedule something, I would look through notes/books that you have worked on in class and see what sections really give you difficulty. This way, you can specifically work on one area.
2) Look online. Trignometry is a subject that is everywhere--so maybe by googleing some online tests you can manage to help yourself that way.
3)Go over a little bit each night. If your book is really long, then try to do a few sections each night. Are there any practice problems in the back of the book??
Keep your head up and stay optimistic. With a little bit of work I'm sure you will do fine. Good Luck!

Don't say that you know you going to fail... you need to speak more positively honey. I know the feeling though, especially since math is my worst subject (currently taking Algebra2 and I'm not doing well either). Talk to you teacher about a tutor or extra help after school or someting, it'll at least help you. Oh, and I dont know what grade you are in, but usually a 50- is failing, a60-69 is a D, a 70-79 is a C, a 80-89 is a B, and a 90+ is an A. I wish you the best of luck and Happy Holidays♥

Don't give up just yet... You can easily pull that 69 to a grade that passes. Seek some extra help with your teachers, or your friends. Maybe find a tutor in an upper class to help you out. As with all math, practice problems over and over again. It may sound boring, but it'll help you understand the concepts a lot better if you are familiar with the problems.
Good luck! You'll do fine!

Wait until its in your best interest to tell your parents, sooner the better, but if you have prom coming up tomorrow of something wait. Also try asking for extra credit. The teacher will see that you are making an effort and find something to help. Remember the teacher can punch any number they want into the computer for you. My teacher once gave me and extra credit assignment worth 100 points just so I would pass, That's a lot in my country! Good luck to ya bud.

You should've been more concerned earlier on when there was time to do something about it. It's a little too late now to be worried about it. All you can do now is beg your teacher for some extra credit or study your butt off and try to get a good grade on the final.

Whew, it's a bit late to be asking for help. How can one recommend a solution to you with only one week to go. If nothing else you might want to learn from this experience and apply yourself to your studies in the future to avoid this in times to come. You gotta work for what you get, if you put little into something you're gonna get little back. But for now maybe you want to crack the book and try to make a bad situation a little better.

Go to the teacher and explain that you need some ideas as to what to study for. You can also go over any notes you may have, or ask someone in your class to help. A high grade would help you pass.

First, STOP saying you are going to fail! Saying you WILL fail will DEFINITELY make you fail! How about this: stop surfing for awhile until you are done STUDYING for this class! That way, you would at least have a better chance at passing this course and NOT have to take summer school!!!
