I think I'm in a pretty rough situation.
I struggle with depression off and on, and it's put me in a really bad place academically over the past two years. First, I'd like to say that I've been doing much better lately. I had straight As last quarter and will probably get As this quarter. I've been under a lot of stress lately, but have managed to handle it a lot better than I used to, without completely shutting down. I won't go into a lot of personal detail, but I feel like I've really turned a corner. I'm just scared that it's too late.
Last year, and my first quarter this year, I'm afraid I really screwed up any chance I had of getting into grad school for physics. In the course of four quarters, I got 5 Fs and a C. Everything else has been mostly As with a couple of Bs.
This has completely ruined my chances at a high gpa. I think I'll be very lucky if I end up with a 3.0. Is there any chance a graduate school would accept me with these grades, if I do very well for the next few years? I'm only just starting my physics major since I took a long time deciding, so all of my physics-related grades should be unaffected.
