Is there a way i could bring my gpa from a 1.49 to a 3.00 in two years?

Let's assume you take the same number of credits each year and get nothing but A's from now on. By the end of junior year, your GPA will be (1.49 * 2 + 4.0 * 1) / 3 = 2.33. That's what colleges will see, and that's too low to get into most 4-year colleges and universities. By the time you graduate (most colleges will not be accepting applications at this point) you could have a (1.49 * 2 + 4.0 * 2) / 4 = 2.74. So no, you can't get a 3.0 (unweighted, which is what colleges look at). If you do want to go to college, you'll be looking at poorly ranked schools or community colleges. If you do well there for a few years, you can transfer to a better school. Sorry, but many mistakes can't be fixed at the last minute.
