Should I retake my classes?
Ok, so I'm a Junior in high school, and in my freshman year, I didn't do too well and mostly just got C's. I have the option to retake the courses online this summer. Is it worth all the work or should I just stick with the C's because other than my freshman year I'm in all honors, ap or dual enrollment classes?

Retaking the classes will not help your application much, since you are already taking higher level classes than the ones you took in freshman year. So long as you continue to earn A's and B's for the rest of high school, the upward trend in your grades will make up for your C's from freshman year. Explaining the context behind those C's would also be beneficial. Hope this helps!
