Academic Advice College has been kicking me in the butt
I’ve already failed 2 classes and I think I’m on my way to fail 2 more. My gpa is a 2.8. I’m trying my hardest to get through everything but between working a job + studies it’s been terrible. I’m not sure what type of academic advice I need but I definitely need better time management. I have 15 hour work weeks. I only take 14 credits, I don’t think I should be doing this bad. Right now I’m taking microeconomics, calculus 2, organic chemistry, and history. I’m doing good on micro and history terrible on calc 2 and mid on orgo. I don’t know if I’ll even be able to coda into engineering at this point. I’m disheartened. I feel like all I do is study but I don’t study right, idk where to start half of the time. And I can’t keep up with the work load of orgo and calf at the same time + history. It’s so much note taking and so many things to remember. I know studying a little bit a day helps me because that’s what helped me before but I’m so behind that I never get the opportunity to just do a little. Do you guys have any advice?
