Re: Flunked out of college today/maybe [Re: kaniz]

Completing a 4-year degree requires a basic (albeit minimal) amount of intelligence.

Other than that, you need the motivation and discipline to get your work done. While college may not be for everyone these qualities are desirable in most lines of work.

If you can't lay off the bong and the parties enough to earn passing grades, what does that say about your work ethic and ability to succeed at any type of job?

...the whole experience is (and is as) a profound piece of knowledge.  It is an indellible experience; it is forever known.  I have known myself in a way I doubt I would have ever occurred except as it did.

Smith, P.  Bull. Menninger Clinic (1959) 23:20-27; p. 27.

...most subjects find the experience valuable, some find it frightening, and many say that is it uniquely lovely.

i think i did the same thing this semester...

i dont think i can get financial aid anymore because my GPA just dropped below 2.0

FUCK!

im on like the 5.5 year plan for engineering because i had to retake so many classes, but next year is my 4th year. i cant quit, otherwise it's so much more of a waste.
Plus, when you start doing bad you begin to justify it in your mind; "oh, college is stupid, blah blah." Which makes it even harder to try. It's easier on the ego to not try at all than to try and still fail, which might happen if you try to dig yourself out of this hole.



EDIT:
the thing that motivated me was looking around and seeing so many like 24 year olds and older adults in my classes. Last semester, i was 20 y/o and felt ahead of the game, if im making any sense.
ya know? you still have all the time in teh world.
