ok so i need help because i’m not really sure what to do in this situation.
last semester, i had pretty low grades. my gpa was literally a 0.666 . but it was because i spent a month out sick, right? i couldn’t really control it, plus i have really bad adhd, and i’m bad with managing that stuff. i dropped a couple classes, switched some things around. it was just really bad. this semester, though, i started out with straight A’s, a 4.00, everything was looking good, i was on top of it all, and i was happy. but then my ceramics teacher tanked me. she gave me a C- in the class, and i’m not sure why. i get all my work done, and i think i do a pretty good job. my projects meet all the requirements, and i think they’re better than a lot of the class tbh. but i don’t do prep work. my teacher gets so mad about that. pretty much, she wants me to use references, so pre sketches, and put all my ideas out on paper before i start my projects. but my brain doesn’t work that way. if i plan (creative) things before i start, it just messes me up. i work best when i just let the ideas flow freely. and she hates that, so she’s tanking my grades. THEN on top of that, i missed a test in woodshop, and that brought my grade from a A+ down to a C-. i’m not sure what to do about it, and it’s really stressing me out. what should i do?

just do what your teachers need of you. it doesn't matter if your process is more conducive for yourself, in life you will always have someone over you telling you how to do something. now is the time to get used to it. plan your ceramics project out and turn in the plan. as per the test you missed, best you can do is ask if you can take it asap.
