in this case, sunk cost is a real thing.
Youre so far in debt, if the degree has any chance of getting you a higher paying job, you better fucking get it
Go talk to a financial school counselor
>>29140442
>loan
I already have some federal student loans, but I can never get approved for enough to pay for the full year.
>>29140445
I did that's how I found out. To become eligible again I would need to replace some old classes that I failed before I changed majors, but since I can't get any aid I can't actually afford to take them, and I failed them the first time for a reason I doubt I could pass them now.

people who fail a class on financial aid should have to pay that shit back
>>29140817
If you're British you get the added bonus of it not being a "real" loan because of all the conditions attached to your repayment.

Yup, don't even have to pay it back until I'm earning 30k or something like that and even then, if it's not payed off by 30 it dissappears anyway

I bet you thought grades were all you need right, brainlets are too stupid to also know that college is all about social connections first, and grades second
it just helps im able to get both, why dont you post your major and grades this spring brainlet, since biology is apparently so easy

I don't even go to class. For the past two months I have been going to the local market, watching homeless people fight. I always try to hold my laughter when I get back home and my parents ask me how was school. They have no idea I'm hanging out with homeless people for 6 hours.

I am a ['Insert Class'] class honours degree graduand in ['Instert Course Title'] and am seeking to develop my career within the ['Insert Industry Name'].
Does using first class honours degree graduand sound better or first class graduand sound better? The reason why I am using the word graduand is because I haven't graduated yet and need to save on word count

I managed to finish my dissertation (computer science) in 3 days after I'd given up all hope, because I chose to do something that I thought was a tad too difficult. Then I met one of my friends who was facing worse odds than me, but he was optimistic and that gave me the drive I needed to finish the fucker. I may only have got 6 hours sleep over those 3 days, but it all paid off as I got a first for it. Come on man, stock up on coffee and don't concentrate on anything else until it's finished. You'll thank yourself later.

It really depends on your classes, but also on other stuff like your social life, drugs, mental issues, etc.

>>29144626
Seriously dude don't listen to these shit stains. They'll probably end up with a 2.2 or some shit, not sure how it works in US. I'm on mech eng and I've got an internship solely based on the fact I got +90% in all my first year assignments and I know shit other students don't because they're too busy getting drunk. The people who say it's a priority to network only say that because it's a priority for them

Their current fad is to use their biology degree to become "genetic counselors" because they're so "caring".
>>29144626
you may still be able to find a job with just a degree
having at least some work experience will definitely help. you don't need to be a chad to get a summer job or do some volunteer work or something.

math major itech minor have several rough courses left for math that i kept failing
have bad relationship with tough advisor who chews my ass off properly about failing grades.
doing real estate on side it makes okay money but has directly caused me to fail along with my noncaring attitude.
advisor suggest to change my major since im making money just start my career, mother keeps pushing this real estate on me she used to be a big deal. having to reconsider my existance and purpose on this earth. never really wanted college or any of this.

Depends on your major. If its english then drop out because your a waste of resources. If its any type of hard science then your doing just fine don't worry.

Berkeley OP here. If you fucks on here are hating on my 2.5 GPA after two years in one of the most rigorous Biology Undergrad Programs in the U.S, let it be known to you that the average Biology GPA is a 2.8.
Source: http://projects.dailycal.org/grades/
Berkeley doesn't hand out 50% A's for it's students like Harvard or Brown either. It's not uncommon to hear about low GPA's here. Read up on Grade Deflation at UC Berkeley:
http://www.dailycal.org/2015/05/15/grade-deflation/
Some of you on here are so fucking negative. I hope you have the balls to stop projecting your own insecurities by telling others to drop out. Feel free to live as a NEET living in your mother's basement after you drop out of Podunk University ranked #527 on US News and World Report.
I will be graduating from an Elite School in STEM.
You clearly aren't.
