what can i do to make colleges look at me in a better way?

Okay im very pissed off right now here is my life. Ok so since i had a learning disability teacher recomended puting me in a cp2 class so i was that up toňth grade, and the teachers sucked i didn’t learn anything and there were all low down drug type people in the class, then in 9th grade in the autitorium there was an assembly on how important highschool is, so then i went and tried a cp class ( physics) and the students were much better nicer, and overall better. I got a B in that class, and an award since i stayed after when i needed help and it all made since, then in 10th grade i took all cp classes, and made the honor role on the first semester, but did bad in one class on the second semester, now in 11th grade i have a A+ in math and a B+ in english and my lowest grade is a c+ in health which is the easiest class. Now just think if i was in cp from the begining, maybe i would be in all honors, have much better sense, and more. But hey I am not a drugie, and i try hard in school. How would colleges know my backround, cause not much people will do what i did, from being in a depressing level of classes for that long. I am thinking of maby doing clubs or something but would colleges actually look at that? I can’t do sports. But what can i do I am in 11th grade got less then half the year left and next year. What are some things to do to make you look better. I want to takeŁ honors class next year but i don’t know if it will make me look like an idiot, first cp2 classes then cp, then honors. Im nto retarded, it just takes me longer to obtain information then others.
my gpa was a 3.4 droped to aŃ.1 when i did bad in biology now it should go back up to something higher. I got an A+ in math B+ in English, B+ in chem B- in History and A in 1 elective while c+ in health i did better on midterms then last year, the midterms and finals are what hurt me, worth Ǵ% of your grade, and you have them all in a week..

    Of course you are not retarded. Have you heard about Albert Einstein?? He was a genius yet teachers taught he was retarded. I am like you. I learn so much slower than other people. Hey, now I have a PhD from an Ivy league school. Ok, if you want to, you can join clubs but colleges really dont care about that since every dick and harry is in a club. What do you want to be when you grow up? Get a volunteer job in the field that you are interested in. For example, if you are interested in medicine, volunteer at a hospital or red cross. All you need is accumulative GPA of 3.0 to get into college. If you can get better than a 3.0 that would be excellent. Also, how are you doing in terms of your SAT/ACT. Start looking at the admission website of the college that you are interested in and see what kind of student they accepted from previous years (SAT, GPA etc..). Hey, you express yourself so well in your writing. You are definitely not “retarded.” It is a stupid label that teachers who cannot teach use. Not everyone learn the same. Success is the best revenge.
