Few weeks into college i start skipping some classes and then get to the point where im failing.
Too anxious to go back to class so i just keep skipping and im now at the point where theres no way i can pass the class... The fuck is wrong with me??
Me too.
Every. Single. Time.
Happened to me, life is fucked up as a result
abuse adhd meds and study an entire semester in a night
I did that but just managed to scrape through with just a pass. I'm lucky I had my girlfriend supporting me through the whole thing otherwise I would have offed myself half way through.

Nices dubs
I only went to half my lectures in the first week. By the end of week 2, I'd stopped going to lectures altogether. Somehow I'm still passing and on track for a first though.
Has anyone here done an online course?
>Stop caring and stop going to lectures
>3 weeks before exams
>start cramming
>ace every exam and finish semester with A's and a few B's
Who /lazyasfuckbutsmart/ here?
>>24733335
Dont know how to get adderall from the doctor without seeming like im doing it just to get the fucking drugs like what do i even say
>>24733365
You find a chill doctor. but the symptoms are pretty easy to fake, just say you are constantly distracted by anything and everything so you can't focus on your study
>>24733360
>3 weeks before exams
Fucking pleb.
2 days before exams master race here. One day to learn the material, one day to practise it. If you're smart, I'm a fucking genius.

Even if i get a 100 on my math exam i'll still fail because i missed so many tests
To be honest i knew this was a long time coming i just still couldnt commit to the work
>>24733365
Say you were diagnosed with add as a kid but your parents took you off meds because *insert random side effects here*
Doctors don't really give a shit if they think you are trying to score meds, they can't prove it and trying is too much effort. They just want to get you out of their office as soon as possible
>>24733392
How do you miss tests? I miss 100% of my lectures and classes, but even I can get off my ass to go to exams. You must be some fat American.
>>24733389
What kind of baby course are you taking were you can learn the entire syllabus in 1 day?
>>24733399
trip dubs specks truth. That's how I get 120 codeine a month. The induced euphoria helps me keep out of depressive state long enough to study or do an exam. It's not ideal but it works and I have a tight control of dosage and I also have periods where I don't take any to reduce the risk of developing tolerance/addiction.

Im just talking about my math class.
I dint have any real lectures we would just go in and do it but i just figured fuck it its just math... And here i am
>>24733420
Mathematics at the University of Warwick. Definitely not a baby course, Warwick's in the Russell group.
>>24733298
Andrei?
>>24733436
Nah man. It does seem to be a common problem now though...
>>24733452
I blame the internet and pornography
>>24733431
What year?
anything higher than calc and I wont believe you
>>24733479
I'm on year 2 now. Got 71% in my first year, equivalent to a first. We don't use your stupid American modules here, but I've already passed Analysis I and Analysis II, which were about calculus.
>tfw liberal arts major (history)
>tfw still struggling
>tfw 10 page paper due Monday, a 15 page and a 6 page one due Wednesday.
>tfw haven't started even one of them yet even though the professors gave the prompts two weeks ago.
This might be it for me bots.
>>24733504
>Analysis I and Analysis II
Yeah like I said, baby shit
>>24733536
>says the guy doing liberal arts
>>24733431
Wow small world I'm at Warwick uni too
>>24733593
We should meet up mate, I literally have 0 friends.
>>24733580
Close, but I am actually a comp science major doing a phd in artificial intelligence next year
>>24733598
I'm not surprised.
Did the same thing both semesters I attempted college.
U R not alone and there is no hope
>>24733510
Quit now and save yourself the time and money, I got a BA in political science, huge waste of time and money, not getting those 4 years back.
>>24733605
Yeah, Computer science guys have tons of friends. They just don't have very many of them.
>>24733504
>Analysis I and Analysis II
Heh, get back to me when you've taken some topology and discrete mathematics courses.
>>24733621
I have one more semester to go before I graduate. I'm in too deep to just quit.
>>24733598
Hey give me ur email- I'm a bit apprehensive about meeting new people too (the only people I really socialise with are my housemates but that's because I've known them for years)- I'll email you. Also what year are you in?
>>24733682
I'll give you my Warwick email once we've talked for a bit. For now my email's [email protected]
I'm in the second year.
>>24733708
That's fine dude thanks
>>24733641
dont worry man, i got that one
>>24733430
Are you literally retarded? What fucking major are you in that would lead you to think "fuck it its just math?"
>>24734559
I forgot to add, until you get hired every class is important. I majored in electrical engineering and had to take bullshit liberal classes I couldn't stand and were boring as fuck, but I went to them all the same. Easy GPA booster if you go to them but you will see your GPA drop if you don't show up to them.
Deliberately missing tests is completely retarded though. Missing a lecture here or there is understandable but what the fuck, I don't think I ever missed a test during college. Once I was a little late since I somehow thought it was an hour later than it was, but I never just deliberately didn't go to one.
Honestly anon, if you're already just skipping tests out of anxiety, I don't think college is for you. Consider dropping out before you accrue too much debt.
