I found out today there's a good chance I won't be able to be a teacher.

I currently have a 2.85 overall in my major.  I need a 3.0.  Im so close.  But it's a state requirement.  I need a 4.0 in Abstract Algebra to continue.  Which isn't going to happen cuz it's one of the hardest undergrad math courses.  I'm freaking out.  I have a couple options.  Basically, I throw myself at the mercy of the Math Dept. and ask them to back me up, saying that I'm proficient in math.  I can't retake any classes because I've passed them all (and it's an Albion policy that you can't unless you've failed).  So, I can try to get other classes, like my history of math class, to count towards my major and hopefully bring up my GPA.  There are a few other small options too that aren't very likely.  Honestly, I don't know what to do.  I already talked with both of my advisors.  If the Math Dept. doesn't approve me, I end up just graduating with a math degree, which isn't even a full one since it's a secondary track degree.  And I can't teach.  And I can't go to grad school cuz I don't have the requirements and I havent even begun to prepare for grad school.  I'm so FUCKED!  Why am I so dumb?  I mean, half the problem is that I haven't been trying.  I haven't really tried in a class since......freshman year.  Now I've screwed myself over on "just getting by"

I'm really scared.
