I'm in my third semester of college. I didn't really have a good first year (2.5 cumulative), and I can't say this semester is going very well either.
Started at 17 credits. Immediately decidedly I'd go to 14, because I needed to get my grades up so I wanted to stay focused...
Well, I emailed my English professor a draft last week and he basically said, "You're not coming to class. You can't pass without regular attendence. You're missing out on feedback...blah blah blah... I suggest you drop. You've missed homework and quizzes...etc"
Down to 11 credits. Not even considered a full-time student.
I just got done BOMBING an Assembly Language programming class test. My computer teacher is like Korean and seriously has the English capabilities of like a pre-schooler. If you ask him a question he'll go off on a tangent because he can't understand it. The entire test was foreign to me, and I think I got like a 10%.
I'm doing well in Calculus and Speech, but this computer class really, really hurts. I mean, the test -- given how shitty I probably did -- is just a crushing blow.
What if I got some ungodly bad percent, like 15% or something? I can't drop it... I can't drop to 7 ****ing credits, but at the same time, I can't get an F or a D in the class -- I'd have to retake it.
What the hell do I do? I'm so apathetic about college. This just sucks. I usually do very well on test / papers / etc, so I thought college catered to me... but God this has been a rude awakening.
Please someone give me some advice.
Did anyone else have really bad starts to college and then finish strong or anything?
This is just depressing.
