EMERGENCY INQUIRY ABOUT HONORS GEOMETRY GRADE

So I asked to use the bathroom during AP Bio to scroll a little bit cuz it was mad boring, but then I accidentally fell asleep on the toilet while scrolling. I woke up like a period and a half later, and then I realized and ran and took my stuff and went to geo asap. Mr. Sterr asked me why I was so late, and I lied and told him I had a late pass from my AP Bio teacher, and he said he'll check it later and let me sit down. After class, he asked if I had a free period, and i told him i had lunch and then he asked me to show him the pass, but i didn't have one, so i had to tell him that i fell asleep at the toliet. He looked at me with pure confusion and deadass just called Mr Moran on me and now i need to eat lunch at his office for two weeks.

Will this impact my grade in honors geo cuz I have a 99 rn and I really want to keep that so any bad score will ruin my grade

I can’t decide what high school to go to

I’m currently at an underperforming middle school. I excel in math and science without much work, and while ela and ss are a bit harder for me, I can still do them well. I’m in a position, based off my practice tests, where I can choose any specialized high school to go to.

Currently I’m deciding between Brooklyn tech and stuy. My current school doesn’t have much homework and I’m scared for a culture shock between transferring schools. I have an interest in computer science (I like lower level theory stuff more but I also like higher level practical stuff). There’s also the choice of going to a less challenging computer science cte school.

If you have any suggestions/guidance please let me know, it would be greatly appreciated!

I have no friends what do I do?

I am a freshman and I thought I’d find people to be friends with unlike in middle school when I had no friends and was pretty much a loner. I didn’t find anyone to talk to and if I did, they all eventually left me since I am shy to ppl when I first meet them and do not talk much. They might have thought I was boring or had a bland personality. How do I fix this? Or if I can’t, how do I accept the fact that I’ll likely be a loner again?

GPA questions

Hello! Stuy freshie here, I most definitely just bombed a good two or three tests, and I'm probably going to have an 80-ish average once those grades hit Jupiter. I come from a pretty light middle school, so adjusting to the workload has be tough. If I'm being realistic, I'm definitely also going to get a few more 80s or 70s in before I can figure out my time management issues.

My end, and I mean end, goal would be to get into a top university. From what I've heard, a good baseline final average for that would be ~96. So, to be blunt, am I fried? And, also, just generally, what would be a good average to aim for and how can I keep it there?

I;m sorry i really wanted korean fried chickne

So on thursday night I was craving korean fried chicken SOOO badly. like i was going to wait till after the SATs so i could finally enjoy it in peace, but i caved and ate half of a chicken in garlic sauce all by myself. but the next morning, holy shit my sttomach almost shat in my stomach. I had to run out of ap chem and position myself on the toilet but i basically kind of didin't make it. it went everywhere and i painted the bathroom brown. sorry to whoever saw that i'm sure it's almost clean by now but i also didnt feel like washing my hands because it kinda smelled like fried chicken and that's my favoritre food.

I was late to school today, is my trains being delayed a valid excuse?

So I was at Atlantic Barclays but the 2 and 3 trains weren't in service due to an investigation at Chamber St. So I went along the 5 train but accidently took the wrong train and I ended up missing first period. I didn't miss any tests, just a period of class, so should I try to excuse this or just tank it?
