Well due to the "lazy" aspect of your life before you started going to the alternitive school you might have to start really kicking your butt into gear to make up for lost time.
It's time to get motivated and keep moving ahead, I know that in the "Alternitive Schools" around here (where I live) you have the ability to return to your home school if you show a great and consistant improvement in your attitude and academic life.

Sorry, your chances of getting into college will improve along with your grades. I think that you will still be able to get into a decent college, I wouldn't shoot for Harvard but if you want to then more power to yah. I got put on the waiting list for Harvard so hey I dont care. Keep the grades up and I am sure you will do fine. Most colleges only really look at your GPA and SAT or ACT scores.
