uni feels

I always think the people that finish first are the worst. I basically see in my mind a curve where the later you finish the higher grade you will have.

>>26090177
Well that makes me feel even worse, now they all know I'm a failure.

>have not done any work the whole year that isn't half-assed or done at the very last second
>still manage a 3.7 gpa somehow
>probably going to do shit next year when I have to do actual work related to engineering

>>26090143
>semester started
>still too autistic to fit in socially
>still too stupid to exceed academically

why was i born mediocre, r9k?

>>26090315
it's probably how most people are. except for the autistic part of course.

Please take better care of yourself dear

>>26090374
don't drop out you dumb faggot

>>26090471

Don't you have to send them a portfolio or something before you take art classes? That's how it works at my uni except for an intro to art course which is specifically for non-art majors.

Anyone here know how to get good at calc? I'm taking calc II and I already hate it. Am I supposed to understand what I'm doing or just repeat it enough times for the test?

>>26090471
Well, i'm in the last year of my art degree and went from ludicrous to mediocre at drawing... Never took the proper effort tough... Now, i'm totally fucked cause i can't do anything with my degree cause i suck at it...
Maybe, going for the theoretical part is the only hope left...

Your suffering starts now... unless you go back to college prepare yourself for hell...
i'm not joking

>>26090890
typo sorry, I'm getting quite anxious

where I had that in semester 1 it died down and I was actually enjoying myself ( bar no real friends)

>>26090975
explain please
i'm thinking about dropping out too
college just isn't working out for me

>>26091020
Meditate.
Cured my anxiety.
Well, not exactly cured, but I now appear alpha to people.
I'm alot more relaxed and confident since I started and it's only been two weeks.
My mind still races from time to time but I'm able to calm it now through thinking and breathing.

>>26091063
Dropped out once, only for 4 months.
Worst 4 months of my life, ended up becoming very depressed.
Now I'm good tho. Because I'm back on university.

Got so angry and frustrated with my own existence last night I stooped into a depressive state, ended up bot going to classes today.

But it's ok. I'm bout to fuck these classes in the arsehole

>>26091078
>Meditate.
any tips to start or resources to read?
A lot of the stuff I watch / read mentions mantras and stuff. do you need them?

> senior year in uni
> not living with former friends in the group of 10 people
> senior year starts
> none of them have contacted me
> be me sitting in my solo apartment
> watching tv and playing games

I don't really care since I would never have seen them again after college, but I wonder if they still think about me. Probably not since they have not contacted me or they did and they just never liked me anyway.

Either way I am free to be who I am. I need to start applying to jobs and stuff but feel intimidated by all the other people in my classes. They all have tons of side projects and I have not done anything. I don't even get that good of grades.

>>26091118
not that anon , but in my uni if you miss 3 classes you get expelled

>>26091202
Nah man, all you need to do is set a timer for 15 minutes.
Sit, close your eyes and focus on your breathing.
Your mind will probably become very active, you'll be thinking about random shit with a raised heartbeat.
And then after about 10 minutes it'll settle down.
Do know it's a habit, you need to keep doing this daily for it to have any effect, but it's not like skipping once will fuck everything up.
Just be consistent.
Also if you find yourself getting emotional in the first 4 days that's perfectly normal.
I got very angry like 3 days in and it just went away.
Apparently it's your mind dealing with repressed shit.
Anyways I hope it helps you like it helps me my man.

>>26091230
I did get expelled, started anew someplace else.

>waiting for professors to send letters of recommendation
>deadline for program is monday
>application will probably be discarded because all letters weren't sent

>>26091538
Shiieeet
Now what?

>>26091585
I don't go to graduate school, is what, all due to no fault of my own. Wonderful future I have to look forward to.

>>26090143
>"he finished the test already? what a genius!"
Some guy on my course did that.
But the reaction was more like, "he left after half-an-hour? what a retard."
We knew he failed since he basically never turned up.
Haven't seen him since.

>>26091421
Thank you, I shall try this out and hopefully get a handle on the anxiety

>>26090645
idk calc is mostly mechanical
if you understand the overlying concepts, you can answer pretty much any question they throw at you with 100% accuracy

start at the base, make sure you are great at derivatives and integrals

then work your way from there

I guarantee that you will do better if you just build your skills from the ground up little by little

if you don't have the time to do so, just know how derivatives and integrals work and get comfy with them since those are pretty much the fundamentals of calculus.

>>26091687
Honest just want to get by with like a b+. I'm a computer science student so I'll never need it.

I just dropped out, I feel much better. I lived 2 years of pain in misery. It was school all over again. Eating alone, failing assignments, being called creepy behind my back. I don't know how you guys can take it, If I knew it was going to be a nightmare I would've stayed far away.

>>26091660
>no fault of my own
Except trusting people with something this important.
Is there no way for you to still get sufficient schooling somewhere? Going abroad for example?
No use worrying about failure, focus on what you still can do.

>>26091538
In similar boat...
My line manager won't write me a reference because she 'has more important things to do' despite promising to make it and knowing well in advance.

>>26091669
If you keep at it, you will.
Your general anxiety will greatly decrease.
Take it from some random faggot you've met on the internet.
If you keep doing it you will feel better.

>>26091663
That's harsh dude.
Poor guy.

Iktf of misery, but dropping out altogether? Why not just commute or if your college doesn't allow that, transfer to one that does?

That's what I'm planning after this year. Campus life is garbage (for me at least)

>got into nyu
>financial aid package hasn't come yet but it most likely won't be enough for me to attend without selling my organs

You need LoRs for graduate school. I'm already poor. I sure as fuck can't "go abroad". There is nothing else I can do.

Because there must be a reason people have such a poor opinion of you.

Have you considered selling someone elses?

>>26091958
Are you American?
This might sound stupid, but can you sue the school?

>>26092013
what do your parents say?

>>26091965
You don't know that, maybe his home situation's fucked up.
I don't think anyone would deliberately fuck themselves.

>>26092055
my dad sais nothing , my mom sais she wants me to make my life already and reminds me what a dissapointment I am from time to time.

>>26091768
Then I guess just do a bunch of practice qs and rely on muscle memory to do well. You won't get As tbqh because muscle memory doesn't work for As in calculus, but it should get you a b+.

>>26090683
You could always just make a csv and import that.

>>26092551
Finished the application Monday of last week, I believe. So week and a half ago would be when the automated email requests were sent out. I know I have fault in waiting for so long but I know one of my profs has her letter already done, another one has a template, and I'm fairly certain the third does as well. It's also not the first letters they've wrote for me so it's not like they're writing them from scratch.

>>26090143
If you were going to miss the first two weeks, you should have dropped the class and gotten a % of your money back.

Why do so many people on r9k sign up for a class, shoot themselves in the foot, and then chose NOT to drop the class?

>>26091972
>there must be a reason people have such a poor opinion of you

You must either be a normie or have never spent time around normies. I'm not Anon but from my experience they will form negative opinions about you based on arbitrary, superficial things such as your appearance and mannerisms and then use those to justify treating you horribly. Normies have no empathy as they have never experienced actual struggle themselves.

Maybe no one knows I'm smart because I never talk to anyone... Oh well. I dont like asking people how they are doing in the class or how they did on a test because if they did bad and then ask me how I did they will think I'm just trying to brag.

>>26092309
Well, I have a dual major in fine art and English. I am taking my second drawing class at uni and I have learned quite a bit. If you put your mind to it you can do really well, you just have to practice a lot. You need 3 hours for a drawing class because it's a workshop, the professor should constantly be helping everyone.
