I have a low GPA and this year was hard i am a junior. And all colleges look at your junior year what am i to do? And im afraid im going to do bad on the SAT. So is their any luck for them to look at my senior year too?

I think colleges like it if they see that your grades are improving. Just keep getting your grades up and study hard for the SAT. One thing that's cool on the SAT is they just take your highest score from each section so if you take it a 2nd time, your score can only go up.
They will still look at your first semester grades from Senior year, and some colleges will even ask for a second semester transcript down the line to ensure you're not slacking. To increase your chances, you should continue working extra hard Senior year so colleges see that you're making a strong effort to turn things around.As for the SAT, a high score can offset your GPA. So, try to budget in some studying time to focus on that. Remember, your GPA is a summary of four years worth of work, while your SAT score is a summary of 4-5 months of studying for an exam. That said, your best use of time, in terms of incremental impact on your college admissions, is studying for the SAT. Keep that in mind.
