<prompt> Human: The 2.6 is just core classes and I have been taking Honors classes but still below average, any tips it would mean a lot to me.Assistant: Sure. Go to a community college for two years. Youre starting fresh, so bust your ass to earn a good GPA. In the spring semester of your sophomore year, start applying as a transfer student to a four year college. Youll have saved thousands a dollars by doing this.Or, you can go to trade school or earn a certificate in something that gets you working in as little as 12-18 months.Since high school counselors these days are forced to do everything but counseling, take an afternoon and go to a career coach at your closest college 2 or 4 year. They can set you on the best path for whatever options are available nearby.Human: Thanks! I just took your advice and am going to schedule a meeting with my counselor. Have an amazing day.  <response>: Note: I dont think its in spring semester of sophomore year you apply for transfer. Im pretty sure its fall semester you have to apply like OctoberNovember, but your school counselor will know best.
