i fucking hate myself
    #6719787 -

fuck fuck fuck. i'm a fucking retard. i studied a lot of the wrong stuff for my labor econ exam. i bombed it. horribly. failed for sure. and i don't think i can count on a huge curve either. it's worth 30% of my grade, no make-ups.

i bombed it.

it'll be a miracle if i don't fail this class. the way i figure it, even if i ACE the shit out of the final.. like solid 100%, i'll still only be able to get a low 70 in the class. but how fucking likely is it that i'll ace the final? not very. i'm fucked. this is a major course, it's going to kill my major gpa. goodbye grad school. fucking assfuckcockad;fud'

i fucking hate myself

I'm sorry but one class can't "destroy" your GPA. It takes several.

Also, most universitys let you retake classes and substitute the highest grade in place of the original.

Also, don't sweat the small stuff brother. It's one grade. One test.

I bombed my fair share of shit, and I do quite well for myself, in graduate school.

Graduate applications are not just based on grades, but school involvement, research participation (depending on the major) and a slew of other factors.

Everything will be fine...just start studying now for the next exam. And study the right stuff this time:smirk:

That's a lame thing to hate yourself over.

Trust me, you will be 'fucked' much worse than this in life, so don't freak out over this.

I never realized how irrelevant my grades would be until I finished school and entered the workforce. A hell of a lot of stress for nothing. Prove yourself when you're done school. Good marks don't prove shit.

If you have to repeat a course, then do it. This will not matter in the long run.

What he said. Just chill out, man. Like they said, it's only one freaking exam! That's small time, homey!:rolleyes: You shouldn't stress yourself so much over insignificant shit like this. Just power through it and focus on the next test. There's nothing you can do about the past, so look to the future, or you are bound to repeat the same mistakes.

there's no way i'll be able to make it into grad school here if i fail and have to retake a major course. and it's not like i've got that great of a major gpa as is. just barely over 3.0 - my overall gpa is a pitiful 2.45.

a large part of why i'm so fucking pissed at myself is that this was the year to change. every year is the year to change. but it's always the same. i put stuff off, i lose track of due dates - even if i start stuff early, i can't focus long enough to get anything done.

i even started looking into getting tested for ADD, but never followed through. i don't even know if i actually have ADD, or if i'm just trying to displace blame to save face, and i actually really just am that fucking lazy/stupid.

everyone i know is doing great. they have no problem keeping a high gpa and just doing their work in a reasonable amount of time, with plenty of time for play. i don't fucking know what happened to me. in high school i was like #6 in my class. it's not drugs, because i quit smoking pot from august to march.

i'm sorry for whining like a bitch, i'm just incredibly frustrated right now and the internet is a decent outlet.

It sounds like you need a good kick in the butt. What I mean is, you need a motivator. Find something that drives you, or maybe eat a large dose of lsd and wander through the woods. That always helped me to wake up and get shit accomplished that had grown stagnant, in my life. That's what's happened to you. You've let your life become stagnant. Air it out!

I had to drop a bio class this semester because I did horribly on my first exam and then missed the second exam.Bio is usually one of my best subjects.I was afraid droppping the ccourse was going to affect my transfer credits.24 transferrable credits gets me into hawaii without submitting an ACT.This is a good thing because I have not taken the ACT.Long story short I thought dropping the class was going to put me below the 24 mark.But alas,it did not.Or so the admissions office at UH Manoa says.

Anyway,I feel your troubles.Looking on the bright side of life is so simple that it is fucking damn near impossible.If that makes sense.

Chipper up my good man.What is your undergrad major?Also,what did you plan to study in grad school?

double major economics and management & society. honestly, i hate them both. i was considering getting a master's in economics.

and before people start lecturing me on hating my major, save it. believe me, i've thought and thought and thought about it. and really, there's nothing i enjoy that i could turn into a profitable endeavor. i finally decided to suck it up, do something i hate, and settled on a track i felt would get me a decent job with a decent salary.

Nailed it on the head.Getting motivated can be hard to do if you think about it to much.The key is to just get up and and get things moving.

Im gonna try and say this without it sounding like a "major lecture",but I think your main problem is that you have settled with something that you dont particularly like because you know there may be job security.

Maybe try and major in something you enjoy and not worry about how much money you will have in the end.If you go to grad school then no matter the major you should be able to get a good enough job to live by.IMO it is much better to do something you love and get paid shitty than to do something you hate but get paid out the ass.One gives you happiness and the other gives you misery with a side of mucho US greenback.

I think you need to take a semester or two off. Its sounds like your burnt out, maybe even subconsciously sabotaging yourself b/c your unhappy with your major or with the routine of school or just tired of it all


Take some time for yourself. College will always be there when you get back....whats the hurry?

it's too late to change my major. i've only got one year left. and i'm not focusing only on money. i literally cannot think of a major or profession that i know i would enjoy doing.

so far as taking a semester off... i dunno. i just want to get it over with. i know of several people who "took a semester or two off" and never made it back. i can't do that to myself. to my family. it'd kill my parents.

but for the most part i figure you're right. i just need to kick myself in the ass and just do it. stop being so much of a bitch. it's difficult sometimes.

Then take this chance to smarten up for the rest of your time at school. Consider it a valuable wake-up call.

The only people who take a semester off and never come back are the people who are dropping out but are too afraid to admit that to everybody around them.

Trust me, if you take a break you will go back. Thats because school is a vacation compared to the real world. After a year or a half year in the real world you will run back to school.


And fuck your parents, they aren't suffering, you are.


But if your close to done maybe it would be best to suck it up, drink the whiskey, and use this as a wake up call

Let me get this straight, you picked two majors you despise and are planning to go to grad school right out of college?

I don't recommend dropping out of school completely. I would however recommend focusing on one major, and trimming out the classes in the other major that you don't like so much (or all of them). Use the extra time to restore your GPA some and start looking for an internship or job. Stop worry about grad school that will only extend your misery. You need some time working to figure out what skills you really need.

A lot of people end up doing work thats different than their major, but its still worth having that degree to show you have the discipline to get a degree.
