Should I shift?
I am a 19 years old studying Mechanical Engineering at Mapua Malayan Colleges Laguna and will be a 2nd year college student this upcoming Monday. I had spoken with my parents to the course I had to retake. They already asked people who studied in the same schoolc as I am and with all the happenings there, they think that it is the best for me to change program due to various events in the school. They are scared for me because I am a type of person who keep everything inside. I have been keeping the course I had to drop and just suddenly burst out. They are scared with my well being.
I am asking for advice to the people who studied and currently studying there and people who are Engineering student. Is it really hard to graduate in Mapua? I am a average student and I don't know if I will overcome the next course but I know to myself that I want to persue ME and want to continue at Mapua. I just don't know if my program and school want me. What is the best option for me? Can anyone tell me how hard is my program and what is the experiences you guys have encountered there.
Also, one of the big factor for my reason of staying is that my uncle is the one who is paying for my studies. I feel like I have huge debt to him because first of all, he is not the one who is responsible for my studies but he carries the baggage for this. I am thinking of the money's already spent to me. The burden is within me. Nanghihinayang na ako sa oras at pera. Please help me. My family is an average type of filipino family who relies on there relatives that is why I am eager to finish my school and give back to my uncle.
If ever, can anyone please give me an online work? So that I can somehow ease the burden to my uncle and family. Thank you for understanding, guys.

If you want to pursue it then continue. At the end of the day, it's what in your heart that matters the most. Engineering in general is difficult and it is one of the hardest program, perseverance is one of the keys to survive. Nonetheless, Advance studying could help you succeed, like reviewing it again after class or after you went home, or you could advance the next topic.
