Is it too late to become a Butler?

Honestly thought about that if HS doesn't work out, but I looked into it. And it's actually fairly complicated. I'm doooooooomed. 😭

Do your best in high school. I’m sure you can find another job you’d enjoy, but a high school diploma helps get your foot in the door even if you don’t pursue college or university.

@marsbar Yeah. Were it that easy. 😂

All you need is to pass to get your diploma. You don’t need A’s, B’s or C’s. @SW-User

@marsbar Yeah but pass that's exactly what you need. 🤦‍♂️

Aren’t there tutoring clubs in your high school where you can get help? Or is it just a matter of studying more & keeping up with your homework? @SW-User

@marsbar Due to a fairly traumatic past. Summed up. I have like a 5th grade education level. Going into 12th grade. Although I have an IEP to stay in school until like 21 or something. But it probably won't do much.

Awww I’m sorry 😟@SW-User

You do seem to write well & are intuitive & observant. I would never have thought 5th grade level.

@marsbar My English is fairly bad on paper 😅 least when it comes to stuff like commas. Though intend not use those unless they're needed, or if autocorrect steps in.

Math is by far my hardest subject. And my lowest. Everything else is a little bit lower than it should be, but math is probably the only thing that low.

My reading and comprehension is actually above college level. Sadly.

Then you need a good math tutor. Math is one of those subjects that you need to be able to grasp step by step before more difficult concepts can be taught. @SW-User

Have you ever used khanacademy.org ?

It’s a useful website for elementary & high school students for math & other subjects. So you can work your way up from 5th grade math to 12th. Maybe it’s worth looking into. :)

@marsbar I'm aware of how math works... Least the idea behind it. 😂 But I appreciate it.

I've heard of it. Havebt gotten around to it yet though. Kinda figured I'd have to pay for it so I didn't bother.

@SW-User It’s free. :) You just need to set up an account.

@marsbar Seems almost too good to be true. I'll check out when I get some sleep so I'm not brain dead. Thank you.
