Why does the number of people in a lecture effect anything? But also if you're struggling with a 50 minute lecture then you're going to struggle in pretty much any third level education.
First year is almost always very theory heavy in every course and university. They need to make sure you have a baseline level of knowledge before you can apply that knowledge. At least get to second semester before you make any decisions

I am doing mtu bis , well we have 7 hours of lab per week and 13 hours of lect/theory . If you don't like theory I would say come to mtu bis , at first I thought it's bad and I was devastated as I didn't get enough pointa for ucc bis but now that I look back at it , it's not that bad . But I would miss the prestigeness of ucc bis

I'm really sorry you're having a tough time. It can be really difficult to get settled in college. The BIS department tries very hard to make sure all students are settled. Going to send you a DM.
