Hi ... I have been teaching for about 7 years now, but am feeling very discouraged right now. I feel so much stress from my job that I don't know how I will continue on. Here is my situation.

I did, for both middle school and high school. It's not like a "special school" (although I did attend one of those too, from between grades 4 to early grade 6), but rather it's supposedly more informal than other schools. For instance, you call teachers by first names, and it's much smaller--my middle school had just one grade 7 and one grade 8 class, with about 28 students each. So the ...

My GPA is like 2.5, possibly lower. I did well on the ACT, and feel I am an advanced student. However, my current standing in academia says otherwise... Stats: GPA - 2.5 [Possibly Lower] ACT - 35 ...

I think what colleges will think when they see a 35 ACT and a low GPA is that you are a smart person who didn't apply himself at all. That is not attractive to them and I don't think you'll get into Michigan. However, I could be wrong.

I don't think the OP should go to a college that will be academically demanding, since he doesn't like having to pay attention in class nor do the assignments. However, if the OP wants to commit to doing these things, then he needs to be realistic as to who will accept him with that 2.5 GPA (maybe lower). There are ranked schools that won't even consider ANYONE under a 3.0 unless you are an ...
