I mean everyone wants a 4.0 but I got a 3.2... not bad but fuck this shit I thought I worked hard

>>37107656
I got good grades and am not totally jewed over with the job market in my field and student loans so I'm decently happy. Still thinking about jumping off a bridge for other reasons though.

>two exams at the same hour, one in group
>study for the group one
>group decides not to do it 3 days before the exam date
>3 days to study for the other exam, i do my best
>get insomnia and fall asleep one hour before it
>mfw im getting left behind by everybody

Ok anons help me understand something.

I go to a private uni where I pay 28k a year in loans. Im a comp sci major and probably math as well. How the fuck am I supposed to pay off 120k in loans??

Have a genetics test tomorrow worth 20% of my molecular cell biology module.

I could get 7% in it and still end up with a 1st for the whole module, so I'm not too worried.

lmao i got a 37.5% on one of my finals

don't give a shit though since i passed the class. managed to get C- B- A- A for my classes this semester. Apparently that averages to a 3.0002 which is p nice

Meanwhile, what's the point of suicide prevention bullshit? My school is full of posters and programs and shit, and 3 people still killed themselves this year. And I was looking at one of the flyers today saying "How are you today? Sometimes it's good to be asked. Blah blah, here's a link to big white wall for which we pay a subscription out of your tuition whether you like it or not." Yeah, that helps fucking heaps. I sure forgot that I'm a friendless slimy cancerous piece of shit that can't properly talk to people because I saw a nice fucking poster. Or heard some guy that's paid to feed you bullshit. Words don't change reality.

If this happens, I'm just going to cut ties and wagecuck until I die. I never wanted to go to uni in the first place because I know It's not for me and this is blood proof.

>>37110207
is this your first time getting that email? i got three of those emails at the end of each winter term, but i'm taking an extra year to sort myself out

Thinking about ending it boys.
Next semester is going to be even harder

>>37110282
Yeah. I've been on an undecided degree for 3 years now and it will take another 3-4 years for me to graduate assuming I wake up one day and decide I know what major I want to pick. I feel like I'm wasting time and money when I don't even know why I'm in uni.

I know if I take off a year to sort myself out, I'll never go back. I don't have the motivation to push myself to finish something if I leave it.

I am out of ideas what to do and since it's almost the end of the day I am just slowly revising some stuff before going to sleep. I could never cram but now it's either that or failing. Do you anons have any tips for cramming?

>>37107656
I've got one exam next week, and no matter how I do I'm guaranteed a 2.1 overall, possibly gonna get a first. and then in a month I start work.

>>37110810
Well anon, it's true when they say uni isn't for everyone
if you're in the US try community college, if not maybe trades will suit you

my best friend is an electrician and he's already out of school with a 50k salary

>know a guy who failed general chemistry two times in a row

How is that even possible? At least pass the class on the second try.

>>37110823
LIGHT A FIRE UNDER YOUR ASS

GO GO GO NOW NIGGA

That's my tip for cramming. Seriously.

>>37109665

JUST ASK HER OUT YOU FAGGOT

NONE OF THIS "I DON'T KNOW HOW" BS

"I ENJOY SPENDING TIME WITH YOU, DO YOU WANT TO COME WITH ME TO (RESTUARANT/MOVIE/PLAY VIDYA/WALKING/ETC) ON (DAY)?"

DO IT FAGGOT OR DIE ALONE REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

good luck and you better fucking take my advice

Had my last finals almost a month ago... Went home and been empty ever since. At least back in school I had motivation to do math and shit, now back at home I'm not leaving the house and bored as shit.

I was in community college before I transfered to uni. I only have a few classes left before I can get my associates. I decided not to finish and go to uni in hopes that I would get my bachelors in Comp Sci. Once I was in it, I wanted out because I suck at math and logical problem solving.

At the CC I went to, they have classes that will train me in Networking, specifically with pic related. I went with CS because it was the closest my uni had to Networking but now I know I don't want to program as a job.

>>37110977
Seems like it will be my only option, my only problem is that I wont be able to cram for so many hours. I am not even sure if cramming will do any good if I do it in a course of two days.

Thanks anyway

>>37107656
Went from dropping out of high school to getting into a university paying everything myself and my dad still treats me like a fucking loser for getting a 3.75 my first year.

>>37111251
hmmm, maybe IT will suit you better?
i have another friend who is the IT industry, a sys admin. he makes about $60 k a year. He doesn't necessarily 'program' in the conventional sense. All it took for him was a lot of small certificates like the Comptia A+, Cisco certs, and microsoft certs etc.. i feel that gaining all these certs bit by bit might be more motivating than getting one degree in 4+ years.

Have a final today for dumb Asian philosophy GE class

After that I graduate on Saturday. Magna Cum Laude, and I get to wear special Honor's society cords.

My plan for the summer is to go to my home town's gym and hit on the old ladies in the Zumba classes.

I actually got really good grades. 4 As and one B.

Too bad I signed up for a field course and residence over the summer, which cost 1600. I had a mental breakdown, went home ( so I gave up residence but was still charged 600), but consoled myself with the field course.

In my hysteria, I cancelled my OSAP application, but forgot I need tuition for the field course. My parents told me it was cool, they'd bail me out, and that we'd pay before the May 31st deadline. They just sent me an email saying they're keeping the 900.

I tried to find a thesis supervisor for next year and one woman was super enthusiastic. She said she'd interview me after her chemo....but it's been two weeks with no response.

I sat around all day being a NEET for the last three weeks since school, so I hate myself.

I'm having body issues and I have cavities despite taking really good care of my teeth because their integrity was ruined in my childhood due to 18 years with no insurance.

I wanted to do art school but changed my mind and pursued science, which cost me two years. I'll be 25 when I graduate.

I don't have housing and Toronto is going into a housing crisis.

When I told my mom her solution was to complain about my lack of bf and my poor sleep hygiene.

I want to fucking die.

But hey, at least I have a 3.3 GPA. Oh wait, that was my sessional GPA. I fucked up first year and now I'm sitting at a 2.8. Great.

>>37112898
How is the workload? I've avoided summer classes because I heard you get fucked and gang raped with work

Anybody here have a secondary education degree in English? I fell for a non-STEM program and now I'm fucked. What makes things worse is I could realistically attain a GPA of only 2.5.

Anyways, I just want to know if any of you received a terrible GPA in a non-STEM program. How well are you fags doing?

>tfw you actually have interesting classes next semester as opposed to the boring pieces of shit you got stuck with this last year

in my experience they are hard in a different way. I enjoyed the material a lot more which made studying more fun. Also the professors were more relaxed about deadlines if I talked to them. But they tended to be project focused and pushed me a lot. Good luck (this might be just cs specific)
>>37114012
good luck anon the number one thing is try to not memorize stuff that's what all the dumb premeds do and it becomes overwhelming. Do every single problem in the book and you'll be fine.
