I tried the going to work during school thing(just on weekends) and also moved back home from campus. I was feeling out of my element but still had things under control until finals. :mindblown: I got a c 2ds and a f :to: and thats coming down from a 3.0 last semester. can anybody relate to this im thinking i shoudl def go seasonal on my job or maybe quit and...idk its just depressing to think i failed a class(first time ever)

honestly bro you just gotta realize if you can handle it
if you goin full time then everything should revolve around that
try to find some lil side hustles to keep a couple dollars if you need to buckle down and get them grades straight

My worst semester of college is when I transferred from a two year college into a four year one, and I learned for the first what academic probabtion was :merchant:

I remeber feeling :dwillhuh: and :angry: for not knowing what academic probation was. But, when I went to the auditorium, and saw half of the college jammed in there, I didn't feel so stupid afterwards. :jawalrus:

Why didn't you withdrawal before failing 3 classes?

i was passing all of them before finals well i had a d in one but they had me working the weekend prior which left me scrambling for time to study plus hard to get motivated right after work

How many hours are you working?
I had a bad semester. I was taking a heavy courseload. I had to cut out work. I ended up dropping out of one so I wouldn't fail before the drop-out deadline. It was bad as it affected the grades in all my classes. Classes are most important. That's what you are paying to go to school for. Work is secondary. Get used to saving money during the summer if you aren't taking classes. ( I still remember feeling like a homeless bum checking vending machines for coins. :snoop: That sucked and was pitifully sad.) Keep your head up. Use your brain. Don't goof off.

Not everyone can work and excel is school. In a perfect world, maybe, but it doesn't work like that. Either you didn't apply yourself adequately during the week, or you overloaded yourself. If it's the latter, unless you absolutely need to the money or else you'll be thrown out on your ass or will go hungry, I recommend putting the job on the back burner. You got some ground to make up and I think it deserves your full attention. Keep your head up & weigh your options. Only you can make this decision.


i know i did shytty in chem and math. on top of that a nikka got school probation for weed the police COULDNT FIND. ready for next semester tho i got my head up. OH and fukk UAB POLICE :pacspit:

Maybe you could find a different job. I'm a little older but going to school since I went in the military after high school. I found a night job doing security. Basically, I'm at work for 8 hours which equates to me being able to study for 6 hours and doing actual work for 2 hours. Try to find something more laid back even if you have to take a pay cut.
