literally everybody starts out in a shitty job.

don't bullshit me dude, there is no difference between a guy who graduated high school and a guy who has a bachelors in terms of how competent he is for a job. college helps you figure out what career you want to pursue, sure, and you can meet people a little easier who might help you. perfectly fine to use college resources and not go to class though. i'm specifically talking about wasting your time ten steps behind other kids academically and not getting any other experience that you could get to compete for the same jobs. if you're a great student then you are probably going to make it either way.

>>36882032
I misunderstood what you said but now I see your point. Yes if you're wasting your time in college (either because you're dumb, lazy, or just there because you have nothing better to do) you really need to evaluate yourself and if you should continue wasting your time, money, and youth there

Last essay of the semester, need to read through and summarize 8 papers and make an argument on which essay was the best based on what we learned in class.

These papers are 15-20 pages long of dense topography papers on paleoelevation.
I didnt understand much from class
I was the only undergrad in my class of graduates
stuck with the class because it wasnt so bad up until the end
paper due tomorrow night
three essays summarized kind of poorly already, five more to go
I feel like I did well on my other parts of the class but this paper is 20% of my grade
Roommate finished all his finals today

How do I get over essay anxiety? When I turn in a paper I get really really nervous (like panic attack) if someone might see it and start reading and I can't look at the paper at all when the teacher gives it back because I don't want to see their marks. One time a prof was going to read parts from my paper to the class and I just fucking walked out. I have to rewrite an essay using the teacher's criticisms which I haven't read and write another one by tomorrow and I can't fucking deal with it

>software engineering class
>participate for part of the documentation part
>just stop going for a month+
>group members are in other class so its somewhat okay

>i tried to particiapte but another group member just did it for me and faster
>now I am here with 0 coding participation and alittle bit of documentation participation
>im freaking the fuck out and my group members are not responding

How fucked am I?
What are the chances that my group members will give me a bad evaluation on the group members evaluation?

I can't even sit still
I going crazy
How did i let this happen
I'm so fucking dumb

>>36883111
As someone who has a working understanding of normies you should be fine so long as you have the ability to evaluate them as well I think. The fear of having someone give you a bad grade makes most normies auto 100 all their teammates. You said your group members were in another class as well, so if you talked to them at all you should be fine regardless of how much you put in especially if you showed interest in helping despite not being much of a help. Don't worry about it too much anon. Of course results with different normie archetypes may vary, you are in good shape in most circumstances.

>>36883373
I hope so
I just hope I didn't annoy my group mates by asking whats going on and asking for work last minute

>>36883415
How often were you in contact with them while you were skipping class?

>>36883111
You are fucked. They probably already talked to the professor about you not doing shit. It's a bad sign if they aren't even responding to you.

>>36883480
at least once a week
there are 3 other members
i saw 1 i saw once a week
the other 2 i saw at least once a week but usually twice

>>36883670
Don't listen to >>36883550 unless they haven't responded in a really long time. No response in 24-48 hours and you might have problems, but just because normies aren't texting you back at 2am doesn't mean they are going nuclear on you. If you had contract this regular with them I would be shocked if they wasted the mental energy to spite you. Just don't be panicky or clingy with them anymore than you might already have and they will not care about you enough to impact you grade from the standard 100 that they all give each other.

>>36883723
i hope so
thanks for the advice

>>36883723
Just to elaborate: it is odd if no one has responded via text in 24-48 hours. Email people tend to forget even more, especially if they are retarded normies who have a cluttered inbox of 1000 promotional offers and other spam. From the info you have given you don't have anything to worry about. There isn't anything you could do that would make your situation any better at this point, but there is plenty you could do to make it worse if you go out of your way to pester the wildlife.

>>36882468
You just kinda have to accept that your writing is not perfect and that there are ways that you need to prove and all the professors are trying to do is to help you become better. However you get to that mindset is kinda up to you and unfortunately there is no "anxiety ON/OFF" switch in your brain because that would be real fuckin convenient. Maybe do some breathing before looking at the comments to help you relax.

i know, i've been in college a while now

it's fucking insane though. i'm at a school that routinely gets ranked as one of the "most rigorous" in the nation by some bullshit assessment group or another and nothing is hard.
i literally started overloading on classes after my first semester of freshman year because i was bored
i have yet to receive a grade below a B+

what really drives it home is that many of my friends struggle immensely with school and i can't figure out why.
i'm not smart at all--there's no way i'm just naturally gifted and they aren't. in fact, i'm certain most of them are far more intelligent than me. yet they can't get a grip on how to do college and i have no idea why.

i feel like the recipient of some kind of unearned privilege at all times.
i show up to classes high out of my mind and professors love me. this is still a mystery to me. i don't even do the reading, i just improvise based on what other people say and the curtain has literally never been pulled back on me
my friends push themselves to the edge of emotional breakdown just to get all their work done on time.

joke's on me though, they have gfs/bfs and i will never know that feel

I'm not upset. It happened years ago and I've since stopped caring. The story is just an amusing anecdote of how my mom somehow achieved something important to me as a by-product of her schooling. Her paper was probably some existentialist bullshit about Camus which said, in summation, nothing.

>>36883991
We are all part of a great money laundering scheme

The government subsidizes the loans to let lenders dish out fat stacks of cash to students who will give the money to universities. Universities have one job: get as many kids out as you can for more funding. Kids get out and get government and corporate jobs.

Everyone wins. Just smile and wave.

>>36881893
I had a similar experience at the local community college before transferring to uni.
To cut things short without greentext, I was told I could write about whatever subject I wanted for the final since I'd been the best student, so I got away with not having to read an entire book a week before the essay was due.

student loans are a ponzi scheme, that's true

my education is paid by a combination of merit scholarships and a very small out-of-pocket portion from a college fund my parents set up when i was born.

i'm gonna graduate with no debt. if going to college was going to leave me in debt, i literally wouldn't have gone.
my degree will be useless anyway

>>36883991
I don't know if this advice will be taken seriously but I am typing it in the hopes that you will listen. There are tons of things robots talk about on this board that are real soul-crushing problems maybe with no real answer in society. No GF/BF is not one of them. I would likely be considered somewhat of a cyborg by most here I imagine. I started out sheltered by my parents to the point where I could not function socially even in kindergarden. I spent all my time up until now learning how normies work and how to fake it to blend in when needed. I have achieved measured 'success' in things that this board lusts after like GF and holding a job for a while. None of it is fulfilling in my opinion. I ended up chasing things like a GF for so long only to learn that it was not something I wanted when I got to it. Please learn from my mistake and don't go down the same path. No relationship with a modern woman will make you happy. Society is fucked in such a way where everyone is trying to fuck each other over for max gains and women have always used manipulation where they lack intelligence or physical strength. Don't seek fulfillment in the ways normies tell you that you have to. You are falling for the worlds biggest pyramid scheme if you fall for these shitty memes. Normies lash out at you when you detach yourself from meaningless things like promiscuous sex because it is their entire being and self worth is determined by it. In all my life I have found one person I can really call a friend and not just pretend. Don't settle for less than your perfect anon. In the meantime enjoy living life on easy mode without a woman to drag you down emotionally/mentally/physically. If you get some sort of half decent work whether it be employed or running a simple scam to extract money from normies do what you can do to live comfy and sanely. Find a hobby that helps you fulfill yourself, for me this is currently practicing AP/Lucid Dreaming.

The thing that bugs me the most is how every single professor tells you that you're on your own, but then they just build in the highschool level babying by making attendance 10% of the final grade.
I'd be much happier with an alternative to paying money out the ass to be forced to attend a lecture I don't need to hear since I teach myself everything.

>>36884169
>>36883991
(2/2)
I guess what I am trying to say is to find the meaning of life yourself anon. If you fall for the trap of trying your hardest to be a normie then you will only suffer as a normie. This society is doomed to destroy itself soon anyways, if not now it will come. Don't be decadent, but live life in a way that is stimulating not just in the way your dick feels when you open sadpanda. If you don't decide to take your life in some sort of direction with your own two hands you will end up nothing more than a failed normie. I think Evola might talk about the ideas I mentioned, but I have yet to read his work so I cannot describe my ideas as well as I would like. Hopefully this post helps you or someone else in this thread in some way.

>>36884184
The alternative is to not participate, but that takes a higher level of agency and an ability to work outside the box of acceptable professions/employment. Running small scams on groups of especially retarded normies like boomers has always been a fantasy of mine, but it is hard to flesh out ideas when you are crushed under the tedium of daily life. This summer I will likely be a neet for a while so I expect to work on some ideas then in case my family connections and general nepotism fail.

oh believe me i don't think my life would suddenly become complete if i got a gf

i just know that i want a partner because i desire emotional companionship. that's pretty much it. i do not expect spiritual fulfillment, i expect a sense of happiness that would arise from entering into a situation that would make me happy, like playing a new video game or something.

i am not actually terribly upset by my inability to get gf. i get it. i wouldn't want to date me either; there's nothing about me that would be particularly appealing for a girl who can pretty freely pick and choose from a large selection of dudes.

note: i have already bought into the casual sex meme. i go to a small selective liberal arts college. this is the only time in my life i will be around women my age who want dick and don't really care too much where it comes from. i agree with you that it is meaningless, but it's not like the other things i do in my life are particularly meaningful...

what i'm getting at is that my desire for gf isn't some kind of mutated form of a larger desire to be a normie, it's just a basic human drive for companionship.

i get the sense your posts were probably more productive for you than for others

>i get the sense your posts were probably more productive for you than for others
I came to these conclusions no longer than 1-2 years ago, but I am more or less just now putting them into (semi)-coherent text. It would be nice to have figured a lot of this out earlier, but as cheesy as it sounds I treasure all the experiences that lead to the 'me' that exists today. I have already started to feel like I have started living for a change and hope I can lead someone down a similar path instead of leading themselves into ruin. I make a habit of not casting my pearls before swine, and while a lot of normies probably read 4chan at this point there are still quality anons scattered about the various chans who are without anyone like them. Perhaps it is driven by the selfish desire of not wanting to be alone like you said, but I kinda hope in a way that I can help another quality anon or anons keep on living if only to ensure there are more than just normies roaming the earth for my own sake. Who really knows though.
