OK, so semester one ended for summer school just yesterday (thursay).
I only needed to make up for the first semester for the D.
Semester 2 I got a C and I didn't want to take semester 2 again for summer school but I paid for both semesters.
I got a D while making up first semester. :/ Summer school is a pain...
My report cards for both sophmore and freshmen year are mostly A's with like.. 2 B's.
I'm taking APUSH for junior year and currently studying for SATs x___x
I'm also.. worrying too much and can't calm down right now _ _;;
I recently joined a service club and plan to join Pride Alliance next year.
Plus the fact my dad wants me to go to a UC is one of the reasons I'm making up the D. Although I want to go to a CSU..
I'll end it here cause I noticed I was rambling on and on.
Please help xDD..

What's your sophmore GPA without Gym? Freshmen doesn't really count for anything, sorry to say. The D sucks, but you need to make it up soon, or else your chances of getting into a UC are pretty much out of the story. APUSH is good, but you should've taken more AP's than just one, so see if you can get some more. The clubs are great, but get in some volunteer hours. See if you can start your own club too!
Honestly, just make up the D and you'll have a decent chance of going to a UC. As for a CSU, make up the D as well and just follow the same track as the UCs. I mean, why not? You want to have both options open to you.

^ Without the PE grade?
Semester 1 I had a 1 B and 1 D with 4A's PE was an A. Total was 3.3 and I forgot what academic was, probably a 3.2?
Semester 2: 3 A's, 2 B (geom&EngH), and 1 C. Total was 3.5 and academic was 3.4.
Freshmen year was 3.5 both semesters.

So you have a 3.3 weighted, assuming you didn't take anything that causes weighting such as... well, I don't even think anything a sophmore takes weights besides maybe some math or english.
Make up the D first of all, right off.
You can still scrape together a decent GPA if you do well in Junior year, and if you do well on your SAT 2 and SAT 1's, then your options will still be open. By well, I'm gonna say, 2000+ for your SAT (Someone's gonna think this is bad, but it's good enough for all of the UC's, even UCB), and try to get 700+ on your SAT 2's. Join clubs, volunteer, run for class office, swim, dance, play an instrument, play chess, debate, etc. Do what you can without tiring yourself out or overachieving, and UC's will be a breeze.
CSU's are kinda easy to get in, but you should aim for UC's so you have both open as a choice... and UC's are so much nicer in general than CSU's.

anything else besides apush? maybe some honors classes may not be as rigorous but do the job nearly as well, and it can add some weight to your gpa. do a couple more APs, if your school has a grade-raising option (if you pass the ap test, your grade in the class will go up) that's even better. and hey, it's junior year. this is the year you're made to work your butt off til the sun rises. i thought i'd never see the end but it came so much faster than i expected, i passed my ap's (barely, lol) and woohoo, senior year is finally here. good luck
and don't forget, not only is junior year the most hardworking year but the most important!! don't be a slob!
