Grades- Good or Bad? & GPA Calculation please?

I don’t know if I have been getting good grades in my classes. i know others will think that they are good its just that I really dont think that they are really that good.

These are my grades from the first quater to now which is the first day of the fourth

Algebra I – 96, 100, 95
Biology – cant find the 1st quarter grade but here are the 2nd & 3rd, 94 & 96
Earth and Space – 94, 95, 88
Humanities (Honors Eng. & Hist.) – 86, 92, 93
Research Writing (Half year course) – 96, 98

I see my friends being in all honors classes (except for language) and having better grades then me.

What would be my GPA so far for the year because we get our report cards online now and it doesnt give us the GPA or class rank.

I would like to know if any of you guys know of any good online doctoral of clinical psychology school? I only know of two universities so far…which are Walden University and Capella University. I would like to find more choices if there are more out there. The school has to be online and offers clinical psychology licensure courses and of course it has to be regionally accredited by the higher learning commission. If you guys know of any…please holler at me and give me the details on it…Thank you.

Just some facts: I just graduated from my freshman year in high school, and I had gotten a detention this year. I had also gotten 2 detentions in 6th grade, but both of them were just for organization; my teacher had found my notebook on the floor, so she thought it was necessary to give me a detention…..

I have 2 questions, and please try to answer with additional details please. (you don’t hav to do a lot, just how much you feel like doing)

a) Does getting a detention show up on your permanent record?

b) Does having a detention in your history affect how appealing you look to colleges?

Also, would anybody happen to know how the distance learning (online MBA) program works?

I feel like I really made the biggest mistake of my life freshman year of high school and I am so dissapointed in myself for doing this because I am very intelligent and I screwed my life up. Last year I failed Algebra 1 and due to that I have I am taking it right now my sophomore year.

I am a sophomore in high school now and I am now in a different state and different county and at my old school freshmans did not take history and now I come to this new school and I find out that freshmans here do take history so now I am not only behind in Alegbra 1 but now I am also behind in World 1 History. Also, my freshman year I took earth science and now I come here and I am taking Biology 1 when I am supposed to be in Chemistry I feel extremely left behind and out of place and I don’t know what to do honestly this worries me so much I can’t sleep at night and I am constantly thinking about my life and my career, What do I do? I am behind and I am aiming not for the standard diploma but for the Advanced Diploma.

I am behind in 3 classes (Algebra, World History 1, and Biology) how can I make these up? In VA the online courses are 0 per course and that is out of my range. How can I make up these credits? I really need it made up by junior year so that I could be on track and in AP classes all by 11th grade. Is that possible?

I KNOW THAT I CAN HANDLE AND WORK REALLY HARD if i get to ap classes by junior year but can I make all the courses I failed freshman year over the summer or maybe even now? I would do anything literally just to get back on track I really need this.
Thank you guys so much for your help, by the way for the summer I go to my father in Southern California, are there any summer courses I could take there to make up my Chemistry and Geometry so that I could be on track by 11th grade? and maybe be in Advanced (AP) classes?

She's running away from me?

Where can I get a full high school art credit online?

I want an art credit for high school that I can take online. I saw something on byu’s website, but that’s only for half of a credit, and also a little on the expensive side, especially if I would have to take two to add up to a full credit. Do you have any other websites I could use to get a full art credit? Any info is welcome! Thanks :)

I might be studying either Nursing, Radiography, or Respiratory Tech. I would take these up online but from what I understand online courses for the medical field usually requires you to hold an "Associate" degree first.
