Who else /uni/ getting assfucked by exams as we speak? >tfw

are you in really advanced courses are just kind of dumb? how can you be studying to this extent and still be barely passing?

>>37004867
I'm in med school currently in my 2nd year

I used to have a 3.7+ GPA back in the good ol' days

Pls I just want someone to relate

>>37004846

I've recently completed a college algebra course and my entire life LITERALLY hinges on whether I've passed or failed. I haven't yet received my grade, and I did horribly but did well enough that I am paralyzed with fear and uncertainty. It's maddening and my sense of dread grows every hour. If I succeed, I'll receive a public scholarship to fulfill my dream kg being an IT, and if I fail I'm damned to be a lifelong wage slave. Please pray for me and wish me luck, I'll do the same for you OP.

>>37004846
What's your major?

ubnoriginal quesiton

>>37005029
If you are that bad at math then you deserve to fail, anon.

I'm just going to bomb my finals, won't even bother studying. I plan on dropping out after this semester ends, there's no way I'll ever get a degree. But my mother has no idea what I'm planning. Should I wait to tell her when she picks me up on the 24th or tell her over the phone as soon as possible?

>>37004846
Quite the opposite. I'm in the comfy position of being able to cruise through a bunch of easy finals this week with minimal studying. I'm practically on vacation already

>>37005092

Fuck you man, it's not my fault I'm shit at math. I fucking tried and worked my ass off to do it.

>>37005147

You should call your mother immediately, explain yourself, and get to cramming as much as fucking possible as quickly as fucking possible. You've got nothing to lose if you try anon, but you've got everything to lose if you don't.

>Moved right before finals
>No internet
>Didn't study
>Shrug.png
>Passed mutlivariable calc with an 88%
If I studied I probably could've eeked out an A but I really didn't want to bother learning all that shit about stokes and greens theorem, because realistically I'll never need to use calculus again.

>>37005250
>Worthless at math
>Wants to work in IT
You're making a huge mistake.

>>37005291

I'm fine with remembering numbers and coding to some extent, but I just can't handle algebraic equations. I have almost no problem with geometric equations, just fucking algebra. And not standard equations, the retarded bullshit they insist on teaching every man, woman, and child that only an architect has any business working with!

>>37005408
>Not standard equations
>Implying anything taught in a college algebra class isnt standard

>>37005250
At least I can do math, retard :^)

>>37004885
same here my man. Except I'm studying 0 hours a day letting the guilt build up before finals.

>>37005408
News flash - anything above 100 level programming classes involves math. Algebra is commonly used. You're wasting your time lol.

i don't know what the fuck to do lads, having a fire under me doesn't motivate me anymore because my entire life is just burning so i'm used to it now. if i do bother to get up (usually i don't, and the failure - though only piling onto the ever growing monument of my worthlessness - gives me relief since at least i don't have to worry about it anymore), its only to pick up burnt ash and soot and watch it slip through my fingertips as i attempt to rebuild whatever i had
and its not like i don't care at all either, i cant even just say "fuck it i'm not gonna do it, i don't care, i'm gonna enjoy whatever i decide to do with my time alternatively", i'm constantly trapped in a stasis of absolute panic because of stacking deadlines that have already passed and i'm trying to pick up the pieces (see: freaking out over it but ultimately not actually doing anything about it) and then i get depressed and stop doing anything because "i'm just gonna kill myself soon anyway it doesn't matter" but when you build most of your adolescence and all of your adult life on the idea of inevitable suicide on the horizon, it starts to lose its meaning and seem more distant and the realization that you are only repeating a moniker to temporarily suppress your anxiety (but add more and more gasoline to the fire in the longterm) slowly becomes clearer when you realize that you're so accustomed to atrophy and sedentary behavior that you will infinitely procrastinate even your own suicide.
so then you have to deal with the mess you've made of your life once you decide that you're going to have to keep living and that's what i'm having trouble with now. how do i just do a complete 180 after spending all of my life procrastinating and avoiding work? graduation is two weeks away and i'm not sure if i'm going to be able to do even that

>>37005052
I don't have a major, here in my country medicine is a 6 year undergrad course

>>37005495
IT has next to no math

>>37005291
>first year comp sci major
>schools I went though growing up were garbage tier at teaching math
>lacking a lot of fundamental concepts
>doing everything just through memorization, dont actually understand why anything works
how soon will this destroy me

>>37005956
Hey man, sounds like your root problem is your outlook on life in general.

Believe me I've been in your place, whatever I did seemed bleak and empty and I never set any meaningful goals for myself.

Honestly I didn't suddenly turn 180 degrees and flipped my life around, I still have terrible weeks filled with bullshit and misery, but simply not procrastinating and getting shit done as soon as it needs to be done played a good part in bettering my life. That combined with picking up a hobby (guitar in my case) really uplifts one's spirits.

You can also use new said hobby to socialise, find friends with common interests, it's still pretty tough for my social anxiety but I'm getting there. We weren't made to be alone

>>37006139
It won't.

Enjoy your six figure salary.

>>37006139
Pretty soon, memorizing math is bullshit if you don't understand how concepts work, best fix that problem first

>>37005029
I feel you man, every exam plays a scarily big role in determining whether I advance to the next year or fail horribly and waste another year of my life, so we're pretty much in the same spot.

My heart is with you anon

>>37005956
Damn you sound pretty much what I expect of the future. My motivation over the last year has been solely been on doing as much shit as possible. In my earlier days I would almost crumble because I had nothing interesting to do. Now it's just work, studies and try not to get drunk every night. Really thought getting drunk in my dorm bar might help me overcome this shit by socialising with people almost every day. Instead it has made me play beer pong 4 times week with people that have kind of the same problems. I really hoped that normies could cure me but their exposure has just made me an alcoholic.
