I'm in a college psychics class and for the love of god I don't understand the stuff. I just took the 2nd exam and this time I was able to try to solve the problems (have no clue if I did it right) but I've been to tutoring twice and I feel like a failure due to how bad I'm doing. I feel I have a major pressure/responsibility to not fail in college as I'm the only one of my siblings to go to college and my mom is wanting Full A's and B's but I'm only getting B's and C's. it's been giving me major stress and anxiety about it. I might end up dropping the class cause it's been a nightmare. I just want to cuddle myself in a ball and not want to face the reality that I fucking suck at college and failing my mom and family....

      get a meeting with someone in the advising or student success dept if you have one. see if you can drop the class without major consequences.

        @AriEden I learned in college that you're never going to be able to do your best if you're falling apart. you need to walk back first.

      hey. i so relate to this. from expectations i feel pressured to meet, to not understanding anything (i crashed and burned in my physics class too), to being completely unsure of myself. if you can afford to, i might suggest dropping the class, but that depends on what your program timeline looks like. if you have to end up retaking the class in the future, that's totally okay, too. i've failed out of (and retaken) more classes than i'd once have liked to admit. i'm rooting for you..!

      First I get that that totally sucks. I’ve been there, still am some semesters. I think the first thing is to be gentle with yourself, next adjust your expectations. B’s and C’s are still passing grades.
