My Favorite Subject by Anjahney - August 2016 Scholarship Essay

Throughout my high school career I've faced many obstacles. One major obstacle I've faced was having to bring my gpa up because of the fact I didn't take my freshman year seriously. I used to always say “oh it's okay it won't affect me” or “it’s okay the teacher won't notice I didn't do my homework last night”. But by me just saying that only made things a lot worst. It made things worse because my gpa dropped and I almost failed the class for the year.
Once my math teacher told me I could possibly fail that class for the year only made me want to change. I've stopped hanging out with the group of friends that caused me to not do my homework which caused me to stop caring about that class. At that moment in time I've even started doing my homework every night and actually taking the class serious. Not only did I take the class serious because my teacher told me I could possibly fail for the year but that class was a class I needed to graduate.
Not only was math the one subject that almost caused me to fail for the school year it has now been my favorite subject in school. I learned that math is a subject that you must past in order to graduate high school and now I tend to take my math classes way more serious.
