Its not re taking class im worried about its the fact that my mom worked really hard just to support me and seeing her see that im failing high school hurts
"U will be fine anyways" man that's so accurate, a lot of young folks don't understand that school is almost like nothing, unless u wanna go to study doctor, lawyer or something that requires high eduction.People forget that most payed job in the world is "Business"
It's true. School can teach you knowledge and skills that can help you start your own business, or become employed by a rich business that pays a great salary, but at the end of the day a High School degree or grades don't count for anything, what you learn in High School does. I wish I had paid more attention in certain classes like government or the sciences because it's nice to know these things. The people who truly achieve great success in higher education actually are passionate about what they're learning, not in it for class recognition or getting a good grade. The ones who go through the motions end up miserable. If you're happy with something else that can make you money and can capitalize off of it, or can just be content doing something that will get you by, then by all means, dedicate yourself to get good at it regardless of if it means going to school or not! I mean, if you memorized all your notes in medical school, you'd be f***d on the job, but if you took the time to understand them because it's what you were passionate about, you might become a great doctor. As an employee, many professions that take a lot of skill and knowledge don't pay as well as they probably should either, just because they're not part of high society, or run by huge businesses who can afford to monopolize, and college is a lot of the time a way to be a part of these huge businesses, which part of the reason people are willing to pay so much for it in hopes of securing a place in higher society (which they shouldn't have to) but that's a different issue and social class isn't a good measure of success!
bro u r not alone . I have been through this . I had no ambition no talents and i was not good at anything .people avoid me, i just had fake friends and i dont know whats nxt
I’m really scared about failing high school. I get terrible grades and fail in almost everything, I get bored so easily with everything and eventually I feel like it’s gonna be all over for me.
Same im from malaysia and knowing how to speak and write malay is a requirement but because i dont my grades are all below f which is g the only subject that im good at is english ans thats not enough and its my final year im.scared to fail my parents they put so much faith in me
I watched this video when I was failing 11th. I didn’t fail yet but I had very little chance of recovering my grades. I wasn’t exactly stressed, a little disappointed in myself maybe but I was surely terrified of my parent’s reaction. I knew I needed to speak up and let them know that I am struggling but I didn’t want to hear the nagging and “I told you so…” and blah blah blah. I also had very little motivation to pass honestly, however, this wasn’t the first time I was in this situation. I thought this semester would be different but after some personal problems, I couldn’t get myself together. It wasn’t easy explaining to my teachers or parents, I am not the kind of person who can express her ideas and thoughts properly. I decided that I wanted to get this shit over with and just pass. It took hours of dreadful work and an existential crisis but I ended up recovering my grades and passing. I am very grateful because this video changed my attitude about school and my studies. Not taking it so seriously in the sense of there is no hope if I fail actually helped me stay focused and do my work. Thank you
Feel the same way i was passing 1 and second semester but its the end of the year i got 4 60s and all i have left for hoping to pass is the final semester exams
I'm in the exact same situation rn, with all the not expressing yourself and being terrified of others reactions, also in grade 11th. Even if I do fail, there's nothing i can do about it now because they don't allow retests. I just feel useless and being behind everyone in my grade while they're passing gets me so disappointed.
I'm half way through 9th grade/year 10 and I just know I'm failing. im in a really dark place right now and I have 0 motivation to do anything let alone do all this work. my friends and family are constantly telling me I'm gonna fail and that makes me stress alot more. I'm trying so hard yet still falling almost every test, I have so many assignments that were due weeks ago. I'm just gonna force myself at this point. If I fail this year or highschool in general idk what I'll do. Anyways, I'll come back at the end of the year and update. good luck
Dude I failed 9th grade. Worst part though is that I kept telling myself that I was a failure or that I was failing before I actually did. At the time it didn't occur to me that I hadn't technically failed anything. I still had time, a lot of it. Yet I was so quick to to deem myself as anything but successful just because of some grades. Which in the long run hindered me from even trying to push through the loads of work I had to make up. Instead I should've addressed the bigger complications in my personal life first before trying to allow my grades to dictate what the rest my life ought to look like. You're not alone in this whatsoever. This year was pretty lackluster and somewhat dark for me too.
Honestly you'll be alright. Even if you fail HIgh school, if you're not satsified with your basic job, you'll be able to eventually go back to college, or school whenever you're ready for it if that's even what you chose to do, or choose to work as something else like I did. Going out to work seems really daunting but it's not as bad as you might think.
Shit im surprised im a sophomore cause last year i had such shit grades, especially all the way back in elementary and in middle school. And im still trying to figure out what am i goin to do IF i graduate
Wise words, friend. I dropped out of my s**thole of a high school 40 years ago. I hated high school and then went on to graduate from both college and law school. High school is grossly overrated.
Thankyou so much, I’m struggling with a learning disability making highschool so much harder 😅 I see so many intelligent students (aka all of them) stress so much and it’s quite depressing, I feel so bad, I just want to feel like I’m not stupid and have the freedom to fail a lot haha
@@maplewhatever5581 I have adhd and its hard to focus on top that my uncle calls me a failure and future inmate just because I have bad grades. Shit hurts when i think about it💔
That’s the mindset a lot of parents have and it’s truly disappointing because regardless how much you tell them they’ll always come back at you with a “Your letting your entire future flush away” or “your gong to be nothing without school” it’s just really depressing
@@03kodahills88 As a fully recovered high school dropout, I would love to have a conversation with parents who respond like that to show them that they're really doing more harm than good. It's true, high school has NO BEARING on one's future. NEVER!!!
Thanks a ton for this. Failed summer school because I was lazy as hell with online classes. I stressed out about how my mother, my father, my friends , and my grandma would react to it. I could not sleep most nights and even started pulling strands of my hair out because I was so anxious. This really helped me though so again thank you a lot for this amazing video. Ps. (I’m in my junior year going into my senior year)
I only tried in the first semester of my Sophomore year then started slacking off, didn't even go to the summer courses I was supposed to and my mom doesn't know I failed. As someone in a similar situation as you, I encourage you to not stress too much about the incoming school year. We'll get through this, just as we've always had.
@@xsmitter3721 Oh well I went to orientation and my mom did not recognize that a lot of the classes on my schedule were repeats of last years so I’m chilling now. I’m definitely gonna try my hardest this year though it’s my last chance.
For me, high school was tough but I still ended up getting good grades. But now that I'm in college, and the level is higher, I feel so anxious almost every single day and its so hard to keep going. Thank you for making this video, I really needed it.
I wish seniors classes in high school teaches you real world stuff what to do outside of high school instead of teaching you the same thing over and over again til 12th grade. Me and many young adults out there feels lost after high school.
@@techmakeryt don't cry bro and never feel like u r the only one going thru this situation Like things in my life r just getting fucked up like I fuckin flunked in 12th grade ,I came to know about this today and here I am alone in my room listening to xxxtentacion and thinking what to do next
I feel you , I’m also failing sophomore year . First tri I barely passed , 2nd tri I failed three of my main core classes , this trimester will end tomorrow and I am currently only passing one class out of 6 . I feel even more unmotivated and worried but at the same time numb . I used to have A’s and B’s since 5th grade so it was a huge shock . I always thought I had a growth mindset but I guess I only had a fixed mindset this whole time . Also feel huge guilt because my parents really do be trying to get me education it disgusts me how even with their support I feel so unmotivated .sorry for ranting but hopefully you’re doing way better than I am !
I hope people will learn about opportunities and finding ways to make a great life. Life will always be fucking hard, so make sure you put a lot of time and effort into your stuff. Trust me, it will all work out in the end. Your current situation will NOT define your future.
I really appreciate you for making this video! 99% of people compare their grades because “they’re so important” and fail to realize that they’re not gonna matter after high school (nothing does and that’s what’s so amazing about life.) This is why only few people do the most amazing things on this earth and why everyone is so limited. WAKE UP NOTHING MATTERS!!!
Dude I just got a message to my math teacher that I might fail high school and I thought about me failing so panicked when I panicked I thinked about killing my self but I can't get my self straight to killing me because I still love my life I don't wanna waste and I'm not ready to die but I talked to my mom about failing it then I cried rlly hard and it fixed me up then I watched this video I got even more happy I have more expectations on my life have confidence on living and if I'm good enough I start a business maybe smth that can put up I really appreciate this video the day I posted this comment I'm 12 yr I'm pretty young and it got me happy when I heard that my failure is not rlly bad because your 22 and I'm 12 it helped me that I'm young and I still have a chance to prove my self up
this is actually really good advice. I graduated high school this year and let me tell you, it gets better once you get out of high school. Just focus on getting your work done. Also change the way you look at high school. Again you can always get a GED. I’m currently at a community college and studying and i’m way happier than i was at high school. Freedom is so important
I'm currently failing highschool and I really needed to just be told that I'm going to be fine. And that time will still go on regardless of if I fail or not. I shouldn't be putting so much pressure on myself.
i was looking for a video like this, so glad i came across this one. when i was younger i used to be a gifted student, i managed to get good grades without studying much and i loved learning about random stuff in my free time, i was very curious and knowledgeable. i was never super popular or pretty but i placed most value on my academic success and intelligence. around the time i was 12 or 13 i started to feel depressed, i was still managing my grades tho i definitely dropped to a ~B average (our system grades us by numbers, not letters) i couldn’t tell you what exactly happened to me but as soon as i started high school, my grades dropped significantly and every single year i had to retake at least one subject. i wasn’t out partying, i wasn’t pursuing a hobby or career outside of school, i barely even saw the few friends i had and in the meantime, all this time went by and i have zero memories from those years. things definitely got worse during lockdown, i was so numb i feel like my whole body and brain just shut down, i barely even got up from my bed. naturally, i had to repeat my 3rd year of hs. when i was repeating the grade next year things were better because we could go to school again and my grades slightly improved, i managed to make some friends in the new class, but in the end i still failed one subject- and throughout the whole summer i just couldn’t pass that one grade. in the end i had to enrol in an adult high school program, where i ended up passing that subject and was able to continue my senior year and my grades improved again, but by april and now may (this is happening rn) i started to lose myself again and i don’t know what happened; i started failing my subjects again. i already failed 3 and if i fail 1 more, i’ll have to repeat the year again. and it really sucks because i was getting mentally better, i found out i had a passion for linguistics and i really wanted to study sinology in uni, i had motivation and i put in the work, but i just couldn’t pass those subjects. i’m really scared what’s gonna happen, it feels like all my hard work has gone to waste and just as my mom started to feel hopeful about me, she’s going to get disappointed again. i’m 20 and still in high school, if i fail now i’ll graduate at 21 instead of at 19 like my peers. i feel extremely inferior and deeply insecure because i lost the one thing i was good at and i couldn’t even tell you what caused things to get to this point. life is moving on along with people i used to know, i’m getting older yet i’m still stuck in the same place i was years ago. i don’t expect anyone to read my whole biography but i really had to put this out lol
No I feel ya, stinqx. Also you went through high school through the fucking *pandemic*. Sure it was hard for me doing college when the pandemic happened, but god to be younger and going through it… no wonder things happened the way they did for you. I don’t really blame you. It sounds like you were trying really hard but still couldn’t get results. That… that fucking sucks. It truly does.
@@trevorendeavors7972 For real, I wont go in depth of what I felt, but its similar to Stinqx somewhat. I'm 19 and managed to pass private exams in an open board of sorts, but I still feel incomplete if that makes sense
Don’t worry man, things will get better. I know me just saying this won’t feel like anything but I mean it and it’ll come through you one way or another time to time. I know you wrote that a year ago. I also struggled but things will get better just patience and consistency.
Don't worry, you aren't the only one who drops out of high school. I met my cousin's best friend, she drop out of high school in 9th grade(Freshman year) because it was too hard for her and now she is struggling to find relationships, work, and her life career. It's kinda sad that she is struggling but hopefully one day she will have a better life.
Im in 11th grade and im a student athlete working to play pro basketball but i have never been a good student, i did terrible 9th grade and not so well 10th grade. Which leads to me having a 1.7 gpa, i get stressed and overthink my life decisions and worry what im gonna do after highschool, especially since i wanna play pro basketball and good academics are needed as well. Currently im doing better and this video changed my perspective a bit more towards higschool. I had multiple talks with my parents about what im gonna do, my dad and mom support my sport but they always tell me that if my grades are bad then im not going anywhere with my sport. I get stressed from that and i feel like a failure, it is partially true. I wanna be someone in life that spreads positivity around me and take good care of my self. I hope my future self is doing well and happy with my decisions. If ur reading this and relate, dont over worry about it and if u need to- restart and rethink what you really want for yourself, dont let anyone tell you or force you what to do or tell you who you are. Your grades dont define you as a person. Your grades dont define how smart you are. Your gpa doesn't define what your gonna be in life. If u need to be brutally honest with your self then be it. But dont pressure ur self into thinking that ur not gonna be successful and its okay if you fail, thats only how you achieve success. Love.
Thank you for this. I failed 5 of 7 classes my first semester of freshman year and It’s not the fact that I’m worried about retaking the grade or classes it’s how my dad will react he’s already disappointed in me and knowing that I failed and I lied to him about not he’s going to even more pissed but this made me feel a little better so thank you
True, I feel apart Junior Year since I took all the hardest classes and was so worried about college. Meanwhile my relaxed friend took easier classes and excelled
now I am in the 12th grade and I am kinda scared about what my parents are gonna do to me afterwards. they think that I should work in the same place my mom is working after I finish high school but my passion is just editing and, you know, being around in the computer. I am dreaming of becoming a video editor and make something out of me the way I do it, not to be told how work should be done. I find this video helpful because I don't care about my parents' expectations on me. I am doing it my own way. and I think this video is amazing since you have worked hard to make this video. thank you.
I took four AP classes online last semester, failed all of them being distracted. It's been rough trying to get through the pain of college deferrals knowing if I had just passed them or been humble and not taken them I would have had a shot. But it also has let to me realizing that I put a lot of my worth on my academic value, which is why it hurt so much. Still trying to push through and luckily I have the opportunity to graduate still on time (remedial classes) and go to a state school for what I wanna do.
@@persononyoutube000 It will affect your GPA if you fail, which will, depending on how bad you fail it, be harder to make up for in your following high school years. If you find yourself in the low A, through B range I don't recommend quitting because harder classes like AAC/Honors or AP are good for your record, but if you consistently find yourself having a C or less as your average, consider switching out the class for something else, as it will lower your GPA if you continue to fail. Failing a class one year is extremely hard to make up for, if your goal is getting a GPA of 3.7 or above, which most universities will lean towards. Hope this helps!
Dude I love this video. I've been trying so hard the entirety of grade school, but this really puts it in perspective for me. Keep working on these videos, and on your mechanic skills👏👏👏
dude i’m failing my math class rn, and i’ve had all Bs last quarter. i’ve been lazy recently but i work at a high paying job and i’m really stressed about my grade. thanks for some advice!
Im in a situation were im probably not going to get all of my necessary requirements for school. i needed this i always hated school my motivation has always been low and alog with anxiety but i still pusher through school and now im not good ng to graduate which hurts but this helps.
im currently all Fs and its close to the end of the year which is impossible for me to make up my grades,i’m repeating the freshman and its all because i was too lazy and never turned stuff in on time.I wish i could have turned this around sooner,thank you
Sadly many people think that passing high school is a necessity to survive, i know alot of people, some are my family members, who dropped out and became successful
I really don’t know what to do with school anymore. I don’t want to study, I’m depressed and I have this constant thought that I won’t be anything without highschool.
Thanks man, the best thing you can do is to relax. Thinking about failure too much is dangerous, because it turns into failure sometimes. Plenty of people go to College or make good money and are happy without a degree after failing HS, but since you're stuck there, you might as well just make the most of 12th grade, if you fail or not. :)
Yall I barely graduated high school & later went on to get a master's degree at 30!! The GPA doesn't matter as much as they stress. I went to community college then transferred to 4 yr university. And no you're not lazy, parents are honestly disconnected. Parents are supposed to help their children, it is their job! If they are yelling at you & calling you names, that's just a rejection on them & their problems. Keep your heads up yall, you're competing with yourself, not those HS people you'll never see again after graduation! The snobby ones i went to school with did nothing with there lives,, while in 10 yrs you could be killing it!!!
Sometimes when I make a bad grades I feel shame, stupid and dumb. But when I am passing and I am not satisfied because I feel like I am not putting my all into it.
currently a freshmen and i am failing my first semester of highschool I’ve been having really bad thoughts and i got diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety that I’m currently not treated for because i refuse to take meds snd therapy doesn’t help so it was hard for me to even go to school everyday let alone do the work also living in a cold country and having to walk to school which is a 30 minute walk whilst dealing with anorexia and not being able to function properly at school. i’m really “smart” when i try according to the adults around me. just really fucking sick of highschool i also have zero actual friends so school does nothing for me. i just hope i don’t fail the rest of highschool because i really don’t wanna work at fast food.
It's just that school is supposed to be a place where people can learn and stuff, but it's so rushed that it doesn't feel like learning anymore, I can't just learn 8 subjects with different topics in a day and pass the all the tests tomorrow
i'm failing high school. miserably. i didn't submit a single draft submission for any of my subjects, failed an exam, barely passed another. this video calmed me down. my parents keep telling me my life is over. i feel depressed and like a failue, especially given the reason im failing is to lack of motivation due to physical pain (ive had pelvic pain for over a year.) i just wish someone would give a shit enough to ask me why i have no motivation to do anything regarding school anymore, especially given at the beginning of last year i was motivated. people suck. this video though, thank you so much. you've given me the motivation to start a coding course and that everything will be okay. my life isn't over. high school isn't necessary. plus, there's so much i want to do in life that doesn't require high school. i want a husband, a family, to travel the world, to write children's books. who needs high school for that? no one.
i just think it’s rlly hard and my family has so many expectations from me, i want to be a nurse but i just go through so much and it’s like no one listens and it’s so hard for me to focus. but dude thank you so much i just needed reassurance and trying to get my mind back on track
Im a senior in highschool, i think im starting to get senioritis, i know that it can just be classified as laziness, maybe true, but i worked really hard last year to get all a’s and b’s, and ever since i got covid 2 weeks ago, i havent had drive to do any of my assignments, im afraid im going to fail
the best advice anyone could really give to youth these days. Is equipped yourself with skills that people will actually pay you for. Mechanic, machinists, welders, pipe fitters, Hvac techs, plumbers, masonry etc. are all viable skills. That last I check pay a pretty good wage. Most of those professions usually don’t require a ton of tuition. And are often are willing to teach anyone with the will and desire to learn.
I passed all my exams except one and I have to retake it next year. Next year is Senior Year and it will be my last exam next year. My goal is to pass high school and just graduate and get school done. Holy crap 2 years ago LOL. I passed my exam and I finally got accepted to a good college.
College graduate here, 23 as well. I’m the opposite of this guy here. Went to college, got my degree… still living with my dad and also with a yearlong burnout post-graduation. They don’t tell you this when you get to college, but man, I wish I had cashed in on more absences, taken more breaks. Sure I can do cool art, but I could’ve learned a lot of this stuff on UA-cam. Basically what I’m saying is, this guy had the right idea. And don’t go to college just out of pressure to look/feel more adult.
I’m a sophmore and I’m worried as hell so I passed freshman year good for me but dude I am failing 4 classes now the reason I passed freshman year is cause I did summer school so i might do it again whcih is nice it’s cool but like what I’m worried is my future I am real smart but I like to go out more i skate i go to the mall and stuff and now school just makes me depressed to even do what I want so I decided to take special educational classes and it’s better i know it’s not cool but it’s good to save yourself and I’m glad I chose that for myself because my goal is to make my parents proud at least and to make myself proud but you’re right dude and I’m glad ur doing good
It is man I barely know anything because when COVID started I basically neglected all my classes from 8th to 10th, If I fail which is very likely Ill just study to get my GED and start working.
Failing sophomore year and annoying as hell with people saying I'm getting held back or about to do summer school just stresses me out and makes me depressed. Every start of a semester I try for a fresh start but never stay consistent enough
Yeah school is important but having to sit in a hard plastic chair sucks and paying for school lunch sucks I completely agree with your response. Although you can do on the job training or other careers without a degree or school background but you might not get paid as well or the benefits may be less and Thayer can use you not doing well in school against you that’s what happened to my dad. I think just working from home doing what you want to do is fine as well
doesn't help that I'm in a really competitive school where people are bawling their faces out for getting below a 90... and I already feel like I'm down 20+ points from how things were in 11th grade. It's not failing, but school just got real bad real fast and my parents do expect me to be up there with those 90 average people because in there eyes, I have all the potential in the world and I'm merely just not trying hard enough, and yet something just makes me so sad inside trying to "try"
if they are bawling their faces for getting below a 90 that's kind of dumb because there quite literally are people that do way worse and will make it further then they ever will do u know how many people go to ivy leagues for some mid major like comp sci and they basically did all that work just to do something unoriginal and boring and then someone that went to a trade school and became an electrical or somewhat went into the navy for cyber security would literally not only make more money then them but probably accomplish way more stuff school isn't a measure of who you are as a person its a measure of competitiveness, which quite literally is really stupid because I don't even remember anything from freshmen and sophomore year I just remember grinding for As
I failed my tests last trimester and I feel like a loser.I was ready to give it all up and take a break from studying but I decided to give it one last time .I'll tell you how it went in next 3months time .Tnx 4the video
My personal experience I’ve done decent in highschool the last 3 years I’ve attended (B average student) but in my senior year I’ve been letting my grades drop, my laziness was caused by not being able to understand the current material and it stresses out my brain to the point where I don't want to get anything done. I'm not gonna lie besides that I am still kind of lazy, but since switching schools things haven't been the same, and I've gotten a lot more sad because of it. I feel like I have to take on the responsibility of school, and I have to make myself struggle especially to get the job I want since I want to be a software engineer which with most jobs offered requires a bachelors. Not to mention I'm only in my first quarter of school and I've got two F's in important classes required to pass. I don't know what to do with myself, my parents don't know what to do with me either, and I'm slowly losing touch of reality bit by bit. I go to school to sleep, maybe complete an assignment or two, go back home in my man cave mess and spend time watching youtube videos for my entertainment. I'm scared when I get out of highschool I won't have motivation to get anything done and I'ma just be in my room all day unless my parents get me moving, It's a really scary thought but maybe I'm overthinking it all.
U got good u overthinking I’m a sophomore with 5Fs the quarter bout to end ion know what I’m doing either but I’m having fun in life it’s just my grades bring me down something’s
Hey thanks for making this video man. I'm in my junior year and have been failing almost 3 classes every year. I'm currently on my ends, because if I fail ONE class, I get kicked out and my parents don't know what to do.
I can sotra identify with what this dude is saying. Once you leave school you realise that a "Formal education" is valuable. When I was at school I don't recall our teachers explaining to us where, in the "real world", we were going to use the Theorem of Pythagoras, or why we had to learn about how to calculate the volume of a cylinder, or that there were 16 ounces to a pound, or that a gallon of water weighed ten pounds or that Mercury was 13 times heavier than water, or learn all the symbols for every element on the periodic table of elements. I've found that every one of those things, and many more, have a use in the real world. If you are still going to school, don't dismiss this sorta stuff as "irrelevant", ask your teachers, "where in the real world, will I use this Knowledge?"
I need help i’ve been kinda stuck on what I should be doing right now because I was feeling depressed and felt like the whole world was against me even though it wasn’t true, it was just my mental state at the time going against me but now I regret not going to highschool now because I’m literally wasting my life, I was gonna kill myself because of how mentally exhausted I was of highschool and I felt alone the entire time no matter how much I tried to change my mindset, I still felt bad about myself for some reason. I wanna go back but now I don’t know what to do or where to start. My parents wasn’t also helping me at all, they basically given up on me and my dad was the worse because he didn’t did shit for me besides make the situation worse and wanted me to give up. My mental state was literally deteriorating everyday when I was going to highschool. I should’ve started talking to people instead of being in my head 24/7 and having anxiety over things that wasn’t even real. Now that I’m thinking about it I wish i had a plug or something to smoke my problems away but that probably would’ve made things worse so I just feel stuck honestly. I was tall and athletic so I easily could’ve been the type of person that was cool with everyone but I threw all that away aswell. I wish someone would’ve approached me or said hi atleast but I really letted all my problems get to me. I hate being in my house all day now because it’s killing me and it makes it worse because i’m only around my dad which he doesn’t do nothing but watch tv all day and does computer work.
As someone who barely Graduated High School, I wish I used the time I spent fucking around to talk to people and making new friends. Before Covid, I had a decent social life with a dedicated friend group. Then after Covid, I moved schools which caused me to lose my entire friend group and social life (It really sucked since I was friends with them since middle school). At the new School, I had very little motivation to make new friends because it was my last year and a half of high school, and I just wanted to be done with it. I made a couple friends at the new school, but I never really talked to them outside of class.
I had to repeat the chemistry and maths exam since I failed it, I finished chemistry today and it was really hard.. I think I’m going to fail. If I do I’m going to change schools I don’t want people at grade 12 see me still at 11th
It honestly doesn't really matter. Once you turn 18, you're grown so at that point it's your decision what you want to do, staying an extra year and get a diploma isn't a terrible idea though if you can manage that
@@willthecardude6900 you’re right I decided to stay in year 11 till 12 and graduate. They’re just 2 years anyways I can manage it. Thanks for the reply ❤️
I’m borderline passing 5 classes. Like low D’s. Then lastly, there’s my economics class, which I have 58% in. I just barely failed, i don’t know if I can build the courage to ask my teacher to round it. I would feel like an asshole because i honestly did put off assignments. I just couldn’t bare to look at them because I just didn’t understand anything. I know the rest of my classmates did the assignments I didn’t do and worked their asses off to pass. But I didn’t. The worst part for me is my mom went and told my whole family to attend the graduation ceremony and made a huge thing about it. Now I don’t even know if I get to be part of that. My whole family is going to disappointed. But even in worst case scenario, I think you made me feel better about all this. My family will get over it. I will do my own thing.
People learn things from school all the time. But I do think that school promotes blind learning and that it's up to us to see value in our classes and play along with the system as hard as that is. Even in community college or college there will be dumb prerequisite orientation classes as a way to generate revenue for teachers that don't really teach anything. I also believe that America is overly formally educated. Unfortunately school is often seen as a gateway to social and financial success when really a lot of it is the knowledge they learn that ultimately brings graduates success.
I about to get expelled from school...and I don't know what's challenges am I'm going to face in the future , and idk if I'm going to make it through life because I'm living an underdeveloped country and here it's really hard to live and grow up in , especially when you have no papers and proof to show those stupid capitalism that you are capable...it's suck...
I passed Highschool with a C+ average at the bottom of my class. I don't think I tried academically. The only class I tried academically was my mathematics. I barely read any of the pages. Graduated community college to make up for my bad marks and I got my grade 12 English and mathematics. I worked 2 jobs and currently working one right now. Having the time of my life.
My worst nightmare is not a certain type of animal or something deadly, but what my greatest fear is that it’s failing high school. When I start getting a 60 or below in a class I get major anxiety.
I'm in freshman and I'm failing every class bc of online school I just cant focus on online school and I'm gonna fail and its about to be summer and I don't think I have enough time to get my grades up in time Edit: Ik I'm late but somehow I passed and now we go to school in person and I'm doing wayyy better than online school I have all As this year which is better than last year bc I had all Fs I'm glad online school is done for. Edit#2: Time passed by very fast, I’m a senior now and a lot of things have changed. In glad everything is turning out Ok. I’m now applying to colleges, I want to study computer science.
I’m currently a freshman & I’m hoping to do good, I passed every class except 1 this semester. Next semester I think I’ll pass all classes (semester 2 here we go)
I wish someone told this when I was in highschool, now that I'm college im currently catching on the things that I like and love. Thank you so much for this, when I've reached my current goal, I'll come back to this video. Congrats to the dudes and gals in highschool that saw this video, everything he just said is kind of true. Again, thank you so much WillTheCarDude
I’m watching this just to feel better rn. My last day of school is tomorrow and I already have 29 credits and finishing 2 more in person, but I have to finish my English in order to graduaste and since it’s nigh school the “last day to submit assignments was Wednesday”, hopefully my teacher will accept a couple for me to pass the course and graduate. This year has been tough and school was toughest, I don’t want to fail my parents cause we migrated here for a better future, I just wanna graduate and I’ll take other courses just to get into university for next year. I feel like I’m gonna throw up just thinking about not completing it, wish me luck and pray for me, so that my teacher accepts my work. But, also for me to finish my work since I didn’t take it seriously this whole year
I regret dropping out when I was 16. I used to get in trouble a lot in school and I never did any school work. I got kicked out of my school and ended up dropping out of the second school I enrolled in. I’m 24 now trying to get my GED but it’s still super hard for me to focus on the classes.
I’m currently failing in my freshman year of high school all I want to do is not to disappoint my mom but it’s too late and I’m gonna fail. I’m just really stressed out and want to die
I’m in my last year of high school, any tips? I’m worried that without atleast 85 and above in all my classes I won’t get a chance at even my local university.
I came here again after 5-6 months. I stopped going to classes on my final sem last year (11th grade) and i thought i was going to fail. at the end i barely passed but my parents found out about my absences and that ive been lying to them this whole time. now im on my final year in high school and the midterms of first sem is coming but i haven't been going to school for almost a month now because i couldn't figure out what to do with my life. i feel so pathetic just locking myself up at home and playing games just to escape from my problems while constantly lying to my parents that ive been going to school even though im not. i dont know what course to take for college and i don't think my grades meet the requirements for a scholarship. i fucked up my life and i hate myself. i didn't have any close friends nor could i tell my parents about it because i know they would become so disappointed and frustrated at me. ive been bottling it all up that i even thought of just killing myself to end it all. i tried to fix my mindset over the few months that passed after i finished year 11 and i made no single progress. the cylce just repeats of me constantly thinking that yeah tomorrow is going to be the day for change but my mind would fuck it up over and over again and tell me that its of no use and that i should just give up. ive been stuck watching motivational videos online just so i could still hold to the hope that i would continue going to school but its of no use. i just can't bring myself to go no matter how many days has passed. the anxiety, fear, guilt, unmotivation and the fact that im not even friends with any of my classmates just makes me feel dreadful of even think of going. i really wanted to have someone to support me right now because i feel like everything might just crumble down and it'll be too late but I can't find anyone on my family, relatives and friends that i trust enough to talk to. they'll most likely just invalidate my feelings and tell me that i should stop being lazy and overreacting just like what my parents told me when i first opened up to them.
Today I made the decision to repeat the last grade of high school because I cannot get the grade I want in Iraq. Everything depends on the grade, although I am a person who believes that no one will be successful or unsuccessful in his life because of his studies, because it does not determine anything. If you look at the best people in the world, you will see that only a few of them completed their studies. I believe that I will become a very successful person in the future, but not because of my studies, because I will take the certificate and put it on the shelf. In our society they do not value those who do not have a university degree, and for this reason I will get the certificate and will not use it to be a successful person in his life. And after two years how did you become?
before even starting the video,, just wanna share a little of my ‘story.’ granted, it’s not much of a story but; i remember struggling with extreme depression ever since grade 4. the depression carried on, and finally seemed to let up once i got to middle school. problem was, my anxiety had finally found a way to push through and become the main problem. my anxiety has always been there, but thanks to how severe my depression was, i obviously paid much more attention to that. so now that my depression has faltered, my anxiety has decided to come up. i only went to highschool on the first day of my freshman year. i decided to take online classes for the rest of the course which believe me did not help one bit. i failed the entirety of my freshman year due to lack of motivation and my now severe anxiety. i am now going into 10th grade, and i feel nothing but absolute embarrassment for myself. i don’t like it, having to basically repeat a grade just because my head wasn’t at the level i wanted it to be feels so extremely embarrassing. i value others opinions a lot, and i can’t help but think what others will say or think as soon as they find out i’m taking freshman classes in 10th grade. now, obviously this seems a bit dramatic considering i’m not in my last year of highschool and there’s still plenty of time to reverse my mistakes…. but i just genuinely feel that i will not be able to. i feel that i will be stuck in the same place for a while, that i will not be able to get my education due to my mental health. it sucks. it sucks so much. i had an ex friend who i dropped because she seemed to ignore me as soon as highschool started, she went out and made more friends and i was kind of the side piece at that point. good for her, i’m happy for her, but that again just makes me feel even more terrible about myself. we’re going to the same school. i can’t help but think that if i run into her,, what will she think? she’s excelling in basically everything. idk man. i’m taking therapy and i’m on medication but this highschool stuff is just so incredibly overwhelming. i hope everyone else is doing alright tho. thanks for reading my incredibly long message :-) edit sorry lol; not to mention i just feel so stupid. i struggle to do basic math, math is quite literally my worst subject. all of my school ‘motivation’ stopped as soon as we entered the pandemic. i had problems with school before (ex; being absent a shit ton) but i was still able to make it into honors classes and work my way up. i’m so scared for my future but right now watching this video is really, REALLY helping my anxiety. i cannot thank you enough, genuinely.
IVE read what you had to say and, well maybe you hear this a lot, or maybe not, regardless, everything will work out. I was in similar shoes to you, depressed, had full time anxiety and always cared about what others thought of me. High school was also pretty shit for me, I always had in and out grades, sometimes failing and sometimes doing good. I was always perceived as a “smart guy” by my peers purely because I was a well behaved kid and also bc of the kids I hanged out with. But I stopped caring about my grades, about what others thought. It was an act at first, I just pretended like I didn’t care about that stuff, but slowly and surely it started to work, I guess fake it till you make it. I went on my own self improvement journey as well and now I’m doing alot better. I guess just reiterating what the guy said, school isn’t everything and it definitely doesn’t define who you are. Find other things to focus on and treat school like a side quest, that’s what I did. I hope your journey in life gets better and you find peace in life. I wish you all the best, thanks.
I failed this junior year. My parents don't know yet. I'm trying to find a way to tell them and hopefully get my diploma. I just want to be able to help my parents and not be a disappointment.
The first step to not being a disappointment is to know what you want for yourself. And that's not something your parents can tell you, it's something you, and only you have to figure out.
Yeah, I have to get the required credits to graduate, take the act test, and they said they want me to have training when I finish high school. There is an adult high school if you didn't get your high school diploma or completed your high school education. It sucks that I have to get so many assignments and get goals when I have the opportunity to get plans after graduation. I am lazy too, I am terrible at cooking so my parents cook breakfast for me, it's a pain in the butt how I am horrible at cooking in the future so I need to learn that. So yeah, this happens to me, I get so much work, tests, and projects. High schools are such a pain when you get more work compared to middle school. Pretty sure the academy gets so much work there too, I haven't attended an academy or magnet school. The high school I attend is public.
If someone you care about tells you you're a failure, it's depressing. If someone you *don't* care about says that, you wouldn't feel anything. Think that way about school, because it doesn't matter that much in the end. It just takes away the possibilities of being a doctor, lawyer, or other things that require an immense amount of mental effort.
So truee. People act like we have to figure out everything before turning 19.
If we had it all figured out, it'd be boring.
@@willthecardude6900 what happens if you fail freshmen year can you still graduate in highschool?

@@masteruwugway7385 No problem :)
@Ari luvs Jesus yea. My anxiety is too bad to work kinda and my mom and dad has to pay for the classes online.
same...
"U will be fine anyways" man that's so accurate, a lot of young folks don't understand that school is almost like nothing, unless u wanna go to study doctor, lawyer or something that requires high eduction.People forget that most payed job in the world is "Business"
It's true. School can teach you knowledge and skills that can help you start your own business, or become employed by a rich business that pays a great salary, but at the end of the day a High School degree or grades don't count for anything, what you learn in High School does. I wish I had paid more attention in certain classes like government or the sciences because it's nice to know these things. The people who truly achieve great success in higher education actually are passionate about what they're learning, not in it for class recognition or getting a good grade. The ones who go through the motions end up miserable. If you're happy with something else that can make you money and can capitalize off of it, or can just be content doing something that will get you by, then by all means, dedicate yourself to get good at it regardless of if it means going to school or not!
I mean, if you memorized all your notes in medical school, you'd be f***d on the job, but if you took the time to understand them because it's what you were passionate about, you might become a great doctor. As an employee, many professions that take a lot of skill and knowledge don't pay as well as they probably should either, just because they're not part of high society, or run by huge businesses who can afford to monopolize, and college is a lot of the time a way to be a part of these huge businesses, which part of the reason people are willing to pay so much for it in hopes of securing a place in higher society (which they shouldn't have to) but that's a different issue and social class isn't a good measure of success!
bro u r not alone . I have been through this . I had no ambition no talents and i was not good at anything .people avoid me, i just had fake friends and i dont know whats nxt
Same. But then I realized that most people that I would consider good at something weren't born like that.
I’m really scared about failing high school. I get terrible grades and fail in almost everything, I get bored so easily with everything and eventually I feel like it’s gonna be all over for me.
Same honestly tests are going on and I’m stressed
Same im from malaysia and knowing how to speak and write malay is a requirement but because i dont my grades are all below f which is g the only subject that im good at is english ans thats not enough and its my final year im.scared to fail my parents they put so much faith in me
IM FROM MALAYSIA ASWELL, i suck at sejarah, bm, moral idk im just not that good at those in malay
I watched this video when I was failing 11th. I didn’t fail yet but I had very little chance of recovering my grades. I wasn’t exactly stressed, a little disappointed in myself maybe but I was surely terrified of my parent’s reaction. I knew I needed to speak up and let them know that I am struggling but I didn’t want to hear the nagging and “I told you so…” and blah blah blah. I also had very little motivation to pass honestly, however, this wasn’t the first time I was in this situation. I thought this semester would be different but after some personal problems, I couldn’t get myself together. It wasn’t easy explaining to my teachers or parents, I am not the kind of person who can express her ideas and thoughts properly. I decided that I wanted to get this shit over with and just pass. It took hours of dreadful work and an existential crisis but I ended up recovering my grades and passing. I am very grateful because this video changed my attitude about school and my studies. Not taking it so seriously in the sense of there is no hope if I fail actually helped me stay focused and do my work. Thank you
Feel the same way i was passing 1 and second semester but its the end of the year i got 4 60s and all i have left for hoping to pass is the final semester exams
I'm in the exact same situation rn, with all the not expressing yourself and being terrified of others reactions, also in grade 11th. Even if I do fail, there's nothing i can do about it now because they don't allow retests. I just feel useless and being behind everyone in my grade while they're passing gets me so disappointed.
I'm half way through 9th grade/year 10 and I just know I'm failing. im in a really dark place right now and I have 0 motivation to do anything let alone do all this work. my friends and family are constantly telling me I'm gonna fail and that makes me stress alot more. I'm trying so hard yet still falling almost every test, I have so many assignments that were due weeks ago. I'm just gonna force myself at this point. If I fail this year or highschool in general idk what I'll do. Anyways, I'll come back at the end of the year and update. good luck
Dude I failed 9th grade. Worst part though is that I kept telling myself that I was a failure or that I was failing before I actually did. At the time it didn't occur to me that I hadn't technically failed anything. I still had time, a lot of it. Yet I was so quick to to deem myself as anything but successful just because of some grades. Which in the long run hindered me from even trying to push through the loads of work I had to make up. Instead I should've addressed the bigger complications in my personal life first before trying to allow my grades to dictate what the rest my life ought to look like. You're not alone in this whatsoever. This year was pretty lackluster and somewhat dark for me too.
Honestly you'll be alright. Even if you fail HIgh school, if you're not satsified with your basic job, you'll be able to eventually go back to college, or school whenever you're ready for it if that's even what you chose to do, or choose to work as something else like I did. Going out to work seems really daunting but it's not as bad as you might think.
Just commenting to get a notification when you'll write the update. Good luck to you.
Shit im surprised im a sophomore cause last year i had such shit grades, especially all the way back in elementary and in middle school. And im still trying to figure out what am i goin to do IF i graduate

Wise words, friend. I dropped out of my s**thole of a high school 40 years ago. I hated high school and then went on to graduate from both college and law school. High school is grossly overrated.

Thanks a ton for this. Failed summer school because I was lazy as hell with online classes. I stressed out about how my mother, my father, my friends , and my grandma would react to it.

For me, high school was tough but I still ended up getting good grades. But now that I'm in college, and the level is higher, I feel so anxious almost every single day and its so hard to keep going. Thank you for making this video, I really needed it.
I wish seniors classes in high school teaches you real world stuff what to do outside of high school instead of teaching you the same thing over and over again til 12th grade. Me and many young adults out there feels lost after high school.

this is actually really good advice. I graduated high school this year and let me tell you, it gets better once you get out of high school. Just focus on getting your work done. Also change the way you look at high school. Again you can always get a GED. I’m currently at a community college and studying and i’m way happier than i was at high school. Freedom is so important

@@TestosteroneAmplifier Just experience.
I'm currently failing highschool and I really needed to just be told that I'm going to be fine. And that time will still go on regardless of if I fail or not. I shouldn't be putting so much pressure on myself.
i was looking for a video like this, so glad i came across this one.
when i was younger i used to be a gifted student, i managed to get good grades without studying much and i loved learning about random stuff in my free time, i was very curious and knowledgeable. i was never super popular or pretty but i placed most value on my academic success and intelligence. around the time i was 12 or 13 i started to feel depressed, i was still managing my grades tho i definitely dropped to a ~B average (our system grades us by numbers, not letters)
i couldn’t tell you what exactly happened to me but as soon as i started high school, my grades dropped significantly and every single year i had to retake at least one subject. i wasn’t out partying, i wasn’t pursuing a hobby or career outside of school, i barely even saw the few friends i had and in the meantime, all this time went by and i have zero memories from those years. things definitely got worse during lockdown, i was so numb i feel like my whole body and brain just shut down, i barely even got up from my bed. naturally, i had to repeat my 3rd year of hs. when i was repeating the grade next year things were better because we could go to school again and my grades slightly improved, i managed to make some friends in the new class, but in the end i still failed one subject- and throughout the whole summer i just couldn’t pass that one grade. in the end i had to enrol in an adult high school program, where i ended up passing that subject and was able to continue my senior year and my grades improved again, but by april and now may (this is happening rn) i started to lose myself again and i don’t know what happened; i started failing my subjects again. i already failed 3 and if i fail 1 more, i’ll have to repeat the year again. and it really sucks because i was getting mentally better, i found out i had a passion for linguistics and i really wanted to study sinology in uni, i had motivation and i put in the work, but i just couldn’t pass those subjects. i’m really scared what’s gonna happen, it feels like all my hard work has gone to waste and just as my mom started to feel hopeful about me, she’s going to get disappointed again. i’m 20 and still in high school, if i fail now i’ll graduate at 21 instead of at 19 like my peers. i feel extremely inferior and deeply insecure because i lost the one thing i was good at and i couldn’t even tell you what caused things to get to this point. life is moving on along with people i used to know, i’m getting older yet i’m still stuck in the same place i was years ago. i don’t expect anyone to read my whole biography but i really had to put this out lol
No I feel ya, stinqx. Also you went through high school through the fucking *pandemic*. Sure it was hard for me doing college when the pandemic happened, but god to be younger and going through it… no wonder things happened the way they did for you. I don’t really blame you. It sounds like you were trying really hard but still couldn’t get results. That… that fucking sucks. It truly does.
@@trevorendeavors7972 For real, I wont go in depth of what I felt, but its similar to Stinqx somewhat. I'm 19 and managed to pass private exams in an open board of sorts, but I still feel incomplete if that makes sense
Don’t worry man, things will get better. I know me just saying this won’t feel like anything but I mean it and it’ll come through you one way or another time to time. I know you wrote that a year ago. I also struggled but things will get better just patience and consistency.
I'm currently in sophomore year and I failed my first term math exam and this video really helped me get through it.
Bruh my teacher is talking about I failed the final exam for math when she didn’t even tell me how to make it up for the day I missed it 😐
I failed worse legit got 2.5/14 in math
If you Dont fail you never learn,Because in life you need to fail to learn sometimes my guy..
True that.
Thats how this universe works
That's very true failing isn't always a bad thing
Agreed,failing is how we improve ourselves.
Don't worry, you aren't the only one who drops out of high school. I met my cousin's best friend, she drop out of high school in 9th grade(Freshman year) because it was too hard for her and now she is struggling to find relationships, work, and her life career. It's kinda sad that she is struggling but hopefully one day she will have a better life.
What’s her job
Im in 11th grade and im a student athlete working to play pro basketball but i have never been a good student, i did terrible 9th grade and not so well 10th grade. Which leads to me having a 1.7 gpa, i get stressed and overthink my life decisions and worry what im gonna do after highschool, especially since i wanna play pro basketball and good academics are needed as well. Currently im doing better and this video changed my perspective a bit more towards higschool. I had multiple talks with my parents about what im gonna do, my dad and mom support my sport but they always tell me that if my grades are bad then im not going anywhere with my sport. I get stressed from that and i feel like a failure, it is partially true. I wanna be someone in life that spreads positivity around me and take good care of my self. I hope my future self is doing well and happy with my decisions. If ur reading this and relate, dont over worry about it and if u need to- restart and rethink what you really want for yourself, dont let anyone tell you or force you what to do or tell you who you are. Your grades dont define you as a person. Your grades dont define how smart you are. Your gpa doesn't define what your gonna be in life. If u need to be brutally honest with your self then be it. But dont pressure ur self into thinking that ur not gonna be successful and its okay if you fail, thats only how you achieve success. Love.
just created the most heartful comment ever jeez
Thank you for this. I failed 5 of 7 classes my first semester of freshman year and It’s not the fact that I’m worried about retaking the grade or classes it’s how my dad will react he’s already disappointed in me and knowing that I failed and I lied to him about not he’s going to even more pissed but this made me feel a little better so thank you
So how'd it go?

now I am in the 12th grade and I am kinda scared about what my parents are gonna do to me afterwards. they think that I should work in the same place my mom is working after I finish high school but my passion is just editing and, you know, being around in the computer. I am dreaming of becoming a video editor and make something out of me the way I do it, not to be told how work should be done. I find this video helpful because I don't care about my parents' expectations on me. I am doing it my own way. and I think this video is amazing since you have worked hard to make this video. thank you.
I took four AP classes online last semester, failed all of them being distracted. It's been rough trying to get through the pain of college deferrals knowing if I had just passed them or been humble and not taken them I would have had a shot. But it also has let to me realizing that I put a lot of my worth on my academic value, which is why it hurt so much. Still trying to push through and luckily I have the opportunity to graduate still on time (remedial classes) and go to a state school for what I wanna do.
Same situation. Former IB student. Had to drop out of that program, and save my grades through summer school. Don’t give up!

Hi! I’m in highschool taking an ap class. If I fail it, will it affect my chances in getting into a university? I’m a freshman
@@persononyoutube000 It will affect your GPA if you fail, which will, depending on how bad you fail it, be harder to make up for in your following high school years. If you find yourself in the low A, through B range I don't recommend quitting because harder classes like AAC/Honors or AP are good for your record, but if you consistently find yourself having a C or less as your average, consider switching out the class for something else, as it will lower your GPA if you continue to fail. Failing a class one year is extremely hard to make up for, if your goal is getting a GPA of 3.7 or above, which most universities will lean towards. Hope this helps!
The loneliness killed me in highschool
same its killing me rn
Game Over. 😂
Dude I love this video. I've been trying so hard the entirety of grade school, but this really puts it in perspective for me. Keep working on these videos, and on your mechanic skills👏👏👏
Bart Simpson is 45 years old, flunked 4th grade 35 times now.
So even if u failed in school, you are NOT the dumbest kid in America.
My guy it's a fucking cartoon lisa simpson failed 2nd grade nearly that many times and she's smart lol
dude i’m failing my math class rn, and i’ve had all Bs last quarter. i’ve been lazy recently but i work at a high paying job and i’m really stressed about my grade. thanks for some advice!
Im in a situation were im probably not going to get all of my necessary requirements for school. i needed this i always hated school my motivation has always been low and alog with anxiety but i still pusher through school and now im not good ng to graduate which hurts but this helps.
im currently all Fs and its close to the end of the year which is impossible for me to make up my grades,i’m repeating the freshman and its all because i was too lazy and never turned stuff in on time.I wish i could have turned this around sooner,thank you
so . Did you have to repeat? Is there no way out
Sadly many people think that passing high school is a necessity to survive, i know alot of people, some are my family members, who dropped out and became successful
Very sad true to that
I really don’t know what to do with school anymore. I don’t want to study, I’m depressed and I have this constant thought that I won’t be anything without highschool.
i needed to hear this, my parents said if i don’t pass o or do a level exams, i’ll be homeless
hearing you made me less scared, thank you so much
How are things going now after a levels?
Going thru some hard time here in india kinda failing 12th grade
This video really helped me. Love from india
Keep the videos comming
Thanks man, the best thing you can do is to relax. Thinking about failure too much is dangerous, because it turns into failure sometimes. Plenty of people go to College or make good money and are happy without a degree after failing HS, but since you're stuck there, you might as well just make the most of 12th grade, if you fail or not. :)
dam thats tough friend how did your parents react?
thank you man, i really needed this
me too
ur video appeared on my suggestions and i really appreciate it. Im failing year 11 even tho i tried really hard, thank you so much
Yall I barely graduated high school & later went on to get a master's degree at 30!! The GPA doesn't matter as much as they stress. I went to community college then transferred to 4 yr university. And no you're not lazy, parents are honestly disconnected. Parents are supposed to help their children, it is their job! If they are yelling at you & calling you names, that's just a rejection on them & their problems. Keep your heads up yall, you're competing with yourself, not those HS people you'll never see again after graduation! The snobby ones i went to school with did nothing with there lives,, while in 10 yrs you could be killing it!!!
🎉
Sometimes when I make a bad grades I feel shame, stupid and dumb. But when I am passing and I am not satisfied because I feel like I am not putting my all into it.
Thanks for making this video i needed this for my freshmen year
No problem dude, have fun
currently a freshmen and i am failing my first semester of highschool I’ve been having really bad thoughts and i got diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety that I’m currently not treated for because i refuse to take meds snd therapy doesn’t help so it was hard for me to even go to school everyday let alone do the work also living in a cold country and having to walk to school which is a 30 minute walk whilst dealing with anorexia and not being able to function properly at school. i’m really “smart” when i try according to the adults around me.
just really fucking sick of highschool i also have zero actual friends so school does nothing for me. i just hope i don’t fail the rest of highschool because i really don’t wanna work at fast food.
It's just that school is supposed to be a place where people can learn and stuff, but it's so rushed that it doesn't feel like learning anymore, I can't just learn 8 subjects with different topics in a day and pass the all the tests tomorrow
I hated high school with a passion
So did I. If my old high school burned down to the ground tomorrow, I wouldn't be mad.
i'm failing high school. miserably. i didn't submit a single draft submission for any of my subjects, failed an exam, barely passed another. this video calmed me down. my parents keep telling me my life is over. i feel depressed and like a failue, especially given the reason im failing is to lack of motivation due to physical pain (ive had pelvic pain for over a year.) i just wish someone would give a shit enough to ask me why i have no motivation to do anything regarding school anymore, especially given at the beginning of last year i was motivated. people suck. this video though, thank you so much. you've given me the motivation to start a coding course and that everything will be okay. my life isn't over. high school isn't necessary. plus, there's so much i want to do in life that doesn't require high school. i want a husband, a family, to travel the world, to write children's books. who needs high school for that? no one.
Thanks for your video. I was very bad in school and it's tough sometime, but i'm happy some people talk about that and share their experience !
i just think it’s rlly hard and my family has so many expectations from me, i want to be a nurse but i just go through so much and it’s like no one listens and it’s so hard for me to focus. but dude thank you so much i just needed reassurance and trying to get my mind back on track
Im a senior in highschool, i think im starting to get senioritis, i know that it can just be classified as laziness, maybe true, but i worked really hard last year to get all a’s and b’s, and ever since i got covid 2 weeks ago, i havent had drive to do any of my assignments, im afraid im going to fail
the best advice anyone could really give to youth these days. Is equipped yourself with skills that people will actually pay you for. Mechanic, machinists, welders, pipe fitters, Hvac techs, plumbers, masonry etc. are all viable skills. That last I check pay a pretty good wage. Most of those professions usually don’t require a ton of tuition. And are often are willing to teach anyone with the will and desire to learn.
I passed all my exams except one and I have to retake it next year. Next year is Senior Year and it will be my last exam next year. My goal is to pass high school and just graduate and get school done.
Holy crap 2 years ago LOL. I passed my exam and I finally got accepted to a good college.
College graduate here, 23 as well. I’m the opposite of this guy here. Went to college, got my degree… still living with my dad and also with a yearlong burnout post-graduation.
They don’t tell you this when you get to college, but man, I wish I had cashed in on more absences, taken more breaks. Sure I can do cool art, but I could’ve learned a lot of this stuff on UA-cam.
Basically what I’m saying is, this guy had the right idea. And don’t go to college just out of pressure to look/feel more adult.
I’m a sophmore and I’m worried as hell so I passed freshman year good for me but dude I am failing 4 classes now the reason I passed freshman year is cause I did summer school so i might do it again whcih is nice it’s cool but like what I’m worried is my future I am real smart but I like to go out more i skate i go to the mall and stuff and now school just makes me depressed to even do what I want so I decided to take special educational classes and it’s better i know it’s not cool but it’s good to save yourself and I’m glad I chose that for myself because my goal is to make my parents proud at least and to make myself proud but you’re right dude and I’m glad ur doing good
Yeah i hard dealing with this
If I fail high school my mom would tell my relatives and her friends that I fail.
My mom would do the same
Tell her to stfu 🤫
@@bandithsopinann1382 bro its easy to type here but really hard to tell her
OMG same 😢 that's what im worried abt
Great talk.
Dang high school must’ve been tough online
It is man I barely know anything because when COVID started I basically neglected all my classes from 8th to 10th, If I fail which is very likely Ill just study to get my GED and start working.
It is.
nah it was hella fun and super easy
Failing sophomore year and annoying as hell with people saying I'm getting held back or about to do summer school just stresses me out and makes me depressed. Every start of a semester I try for a fresh start but never stay consistent enough
Do you have to pay for summer school ?
@@Gioo372no?
Yeah im failing currently, I have 2 weeks of school left. Im fucked.
You'll be OK either way if you fail or you didn't YOU DEFINE UR FUTURE
@@KaanEsenkurt56 nvm bro I made a comeback
Yeah school is important but having to sit in a hard plastic chair sucks and paying for school lunch sucks I completely agree with your response. Although you can do on the job training or other careers without a degree or school background but you might not get paid as well or the benefits may be less and Thayer can use you not doing well in school against you that’s what happened to my dad. I think just working from home doing what you want to do is fine as well
doesn't help that I'm in a really competitive school where people are bawling their faces out for getting below a 90... and I already feel like I'm down 20+ points from how things were in 11th grade. It's not failing, but school just got real bad real fast and my parents do expect me to be up there with those 90 average people because in there eyes, I have all the potential in the world and I'm merely just not trying hard enough, and yet something just makes me so sad inside trying to "try"
if they are bawling their faces for getting below a 90 that's kind of dumb because there quite literally are people that do way worse and will make it further then they ever will
do u know how many people go to ivy leagues for some mid major like comp sci and they basically did all that work just to do something unoriginal and boring and then someone that went to a trade school and became an electrical or somewhat went into the navy for cyber security would literally not only make more money then them but probably accomplish way more stuff
school isn't a measure of who you are as a person its a measure of competitiveness, which quite literally is really stupid because I don't even remember anything from freshmen and sophomore year I just remember grinding for As
I failed my tests last trimester and I feel like a loser.I was ready to give it all up and take a break from studying but I decided to give it one last time .I'll tell you how it went in next 3months time .Tnx 4the video
No problem
Update
its been 5 months, update!
Update Valentine
I hope you're doing fine now
Really needed this video rn thanks man
My personal experience I’ve done decent in highschool the last 3 years I’ve attended (B average student) but in my senior year I’ve been letting my grades drop, my laziness was caused by not being able to understand the current material and it stresses out my brain to the point where I don't want
to get anything done. I'm not gonna lie besides that I am still kind of lazy, but since switching schools things haven't been the same, and I've gotten a lot more sad because of it. I feel like I have to take on the responsibility of school, and I have to make myself struggle especially to get the job I want since I want to be a software engineer which with most jobs offered requires a bachelors. Not to mention I'm only in my first quarter of school and I've got two F's in important classes required to pass. I don't know what to do with myself, my parents don't know what to do with me either, and I'm slowly losing touch of reality bit by bit. I go to school to sleep, maybe complete an assignment or two, go back home in my man cave mess and spend time watching youtube videos for my entertainment. I'm scared when I get out of highschool I won't have motivation to get anything done and I'ma just be in my room all day unless my parents get me moving, It's a really scary thought but maybe I'm overthinking it all.
U got good u overthinking I’m a sophomore with 5Fs the quarter bout to end ion know what I’m doing either but I’m having fun in life it’s just my grades bring me down something’s
Bro this is exactly how i feel. Word for word.
me rn , i’m a junior but part time college. I just do not have the energy anymore, i’m going to flunk my math class again and i’m stressed.
Thank you man really needed this
Hey thanks for making this video man. I'm in my junior year and have been failing almost 3 classes every year. I'm currently on my ends, because if I fail ONE class, I get kicked out and my parents don't know what to do.
I can sotra identify with what this dude is saying.
Once you leave school you realise that a "Formal education" is valuable.
When I was at school I don't recall our teachers explaining to us where, in the "real world", we were going to use the Theorem of Pythagoras, or why we had to learn about how to calculate the volume of a cylinder, or that there were 16 ounces to a pound, or that a gallon of water weighed ten pounds or that Mercury was 13 times heavier than water, or learn all the symbols for every element on the periodic table of elements.
I've found that every one of those things, and many more, have a use in the real world.
If you are still going to school, don't dismiss this sorta stuff as "irrelevant",
ask your teachers, "where in the real world, will I use this Knowledge?"
I need help i’ve been kinda stuck on what I should be doing right now because I was feeling depressed and felt like the whole world was against me even though it wasn’t true, it was just my mental state at the time going against me but now I regret not going to highschool now because I’m literally wasting my life, I was gonna kill myself because of how mentally exhausted I was of highschool and I felt alone the entire time no matter how much I tried to change my mindset, I still felt bad about myself for some reason. I wanna go back but now I don’t know what to do or where to start. My parents wasn’t also helping me at all, they basically given up on me and my dad was the worse because he didn’t did shit for me besides make the situation worse and wanted me to give up. My mental state was literally deteriorating everyday when I was going to highschool. I should’ve started talking to people instead of being in my head 24/7 and having anxiety over things that wasn’t even real. Now that I’m thinking about it I wish i had a plug or something to smoke my problems away but that probably would’ve made things worse so I just feel stuck honestly. I was tall and athletic so I easily could’ve been the type of person that was cool with everyone but I threw all that away aswell. I wish someone would’ve approached me or said hi atleast but I really letted all my problems get to me. I hate being in my house all day now because it’s killing me and it makes it worse because i’m only around my dad which he doesn’t do nothing but watch tv all day and does computer work.
Hi, are things better now?
I needed this,thank you so much :,)
I know so many people who dropped out of high school and their life's are going so well for them.
As someone who barely Graduated High School, I wish I used the time I spent fucking around to talk to people and making new friends. Before Covid, I had a decent social life with a dedicated friend group. Then after Covid, I moved schools which caused me to lose my entire friend group and social life (It really sucked since I was friends with them since middle school). At the new School, I had very little motivation to make new friends because it was my last year and a half of high school, and I just wanted to be done with it. I made a couple friends at the new school, but I never really talked to them outside of class.
I got my first house at 21 last year. I passed with like a 2.4 or something, and all my friends are in college debt.
I had to repeat the chemistry and maths exam since I failed it, I finished chemistry today and it was really hard.. I think I’m going to fail. If I do I’m going to change schools I don’t want people at grade 12 see me still at 11th
It honestly doesn't really matter. Once you turn 18, you're grown so at that point it's your decision what you want to do, staying an extra year and get a diploma isn't a terrible idea though if you can manage that
@@willthecardude6900 you’re right I decided to stay in year 11 till 12 and graduate. They’re just 2 years anyways I can manage it. Thanks for the reply ❤️
Thank u this gonna help me for the rest of the year if I pass this quarter I owe u one
Thanks for the insight Will!
For sure!
Im glad watching this as a freshmen in high school who is failing
I’m borderline passing 5 classes. Like low D’s. Then lastly, there’s my economics class, which I have 58% in. I just barely failed, i don’t know if I can build the courage to ask my teacher to round it. I would feel like an asshole because i honestly did put off assignments. I just couldn’t bare to look at them because I just didn’t understand anything. I know the rest of my classmates did the assignments I didn’t do and worked their asses off to pass. But I didn’t. The worst part for me is my mom went and told my whole family to attend the graduation ceremony and made a huge thing about it. Now I don’t even know if I get to be part of that. My whole family is going to disappointed. But even in worst case scenario, I think you made me feel better about all this. My family will get over it. I will do my own thing.
i was lazy cause i know however much i break my back or get paralyzed. at the end of the day, i will learn nothing from school.
People learn things from school all the time. But I do think that school promotes blind learning and that it's up to us to see value in our classes and play along with the system as hard as that is. Even in community college or college there will be dumb prerequisite orientation classes as a way to generate revenue for teachers that don't really teach anything. I also believe that America is overly formally educated. Unfortunately school is often seen as a gateway to social and financial success when really a lot of it is the knowledge they learn that ultimately brings graduates success.
I about to get expelled from school...and I don't know what's challenges am I'm going to face in the future , and idk if I'm going to make it through life because I'm living an underdeveloped country and here it's really hard to live and grow up in , especially when you have no papers and proof to show those stupid capitalism that you are capable...it's suck...
I passed Highschool with a C+ average at the bottom of my class. I don't think I tried academically. The only class I tried academically was my mathematics. I barely read any of the pages. Graduated community college to make up for my bad marks and I got my grade 12 English and mathematics. I worked 2 jobs and currently working one right now. Having the time of my life.
My worst nightmare is not a certain type of animal or something deadly, but what my greatest fear is that it’s failing high school. When I start getting a 60 or below in a class I get major anxiety.
THANK YOU i am failing high school bc i chose a rlly hard school (with latin and greek) and this really helped me:)
You're welcome :)
Is it possible we can graduate if we take Summer Classes? For credit recovery?
yeh dw dude im taking them too since I failed somewhat this year as a soph
I'm in freshman and I'm failing every class bc of online school I just cant focus on online school and I'm gonna fail and its about to be summer and I don't think I have enough time to get my grades up in time
Edit: Ik I'm late but somehow I passed and now we go to school in person and I'm doing wayyy better than online school I have all As this year which is better than last year bc I had all Fs I'm glad online school is done for.
Edit#2: Time passed by very fast, I’m a senior now and a lot of things have changed. In glad everything is turning out Ok. I’m now applying to colleges, I want to study computer science.
Bro you dead
Just cheat on your finals and then those will multiply your grade by 5 or just go into the school next year and make up the classes bro you’ll be fine
Same
You got it man
you're not alone
I’m currently a freshman & I’m hoping to do good, I passed every class except 1 this semester. Next semester I think I’ll pass all classes (semester 2 here we go)
Yeah man same here. I have trouble focusing and I have anxiety, and take all honors and have 1 F. I’m also a freshman
Really got me out of a rut
Nah frl
i learned history more from listening to Sabaton than my fucking history period
I wish someone told this when I was in highschool, now that I'm college im currently catching on the things that I like and love. Thank you so much for this, when I've reached my current goal, I'll come back to this video. Congrats to the dudes and gals in highschool that saw this video, everything he just said is kind of true.
Again, thank you so much WillTheCarDude
I’m watching this just to feel better rn. My last day of school is tomorrow and I already have 29 credits and finishing 2 more in person, but I have to finish my English in order to graduaste and since it’s nigh school the “last day to submit assignments was Wednesday”, hopefully my teacher will accept a couple for me to pass the course and graduate. This year has been tough and school was toughest, I don’t want to fail my parents cause we migrated here for a better future, I just wanna graduate and I’ll take other courses just to get into university for next year. I feel like I’m gonna throw up just thinking about not completing it, wish me luck and pray for me, so that my teacher accepts my work. But, also for me to finish my work since I didn’t take it seriously this whole year
I regret dropping out when I was 16. I used to get in trouble a lot in school and I never did any school work. I got kicked out of my school and ended up dropping out of the second school I enrolled in. I’m 24 now trying to get my GED but it’s still super hard for me to focus on the classes.
Well u still have a chance. Try to get u a job and invest in stocks. Or do side hustles , but don't give up.
I’m currently failing in my freshman year of high school all I want to do is not to disappoint my mom but it’s too late and I’m gonna fail. I’m just really stressed out and want to die
me too man
I’m in my last year of high school, any tips? I’m worried that without atleast 85 and above in all my classes I won’t get a chance at even my local university.
I came here again after 5-6 months. I stopped going to classes on my final sem last year (11th grade) and i thought i was going to fail. at the end i barely passed but my parents found out about my absences and that ive been lying to them this whole time. now im on my final year in high school and the midterms of first sem is coming but i haven't been going to school for almost a month now because i couldn't figure out what to do with my life. i feel so pathetic just locking myself up at home and playing games just to escape from my problems while constantly lying to my parents that ive been going to school even though im not. i dont know what course to take for college and i don't think my grades meet the requirements for a scholarship.
i fucked up my life and i hate myself.
i didn't have any close friends nor could i tell my parents about it because i know they would become so disappointed and frustrated at me. ive been bottling it all up that i even thought of just killing myself to end it all. i tried to fix my mindset over the few months that passed after i finished year 11 and i made no single progress. the cylce just repeats of me constantly thinking that yeah tomorrow is going to be the day for change but my mind would fuck it up over and over again and tell me that its of no use and that i should just give up. ive been stuck watching motivational videos online just so i could still hold to the hope that i would continue going to school but its of no use.
i just can't bring myself to go no matter how many days has passed. the anxiety, fear, guilt, unmotivation and the fact that im not even friends with any of my classmates just makes me feel dreadful of even think of going. i really wanted to have someone to support me right now because i feel like everything might just crumble down and it'll be too late but I can't find anyone on my family, relatives and friends that i trust enough to talk to. they'll most likely just invalidate my feelings and tell me that i should stop being lazy and overreacting just like what my parents told me when i first opened up to them.
No, high school failed you.
Today I made the decision to repeat the last grade of high school because I cannot get the grade I want in Iraq. Everything depends on the grade, although I am a person who believes that no one will be successful or unsuccessful in his life because of his studies, because it does not determine anything. If you look at the best people in the world, you will see that only a few of them completed their studies. I believe that I will become a very successful person in the future, but not because of my studies, because I will take the certificate and put it on the shelf. In our society they do not value those who do not have a university degree, and for this reason I will get the certificate and will not use it to be a successful person in his life.
And after two years how did you become?
before even starting the video,, just wanna share a little of my ‘story.’ granted, it’s not much of a story but;
i remember struggling with extreme depression ever since grade 4. the depression carried on, and finally seemed to let up once i got to middle school. problem was, my anxiety had finally found a way to push through and become the main problem. my anxiety has always been there, but thanks to how severe my depression was, i obviously paid much more attention to that. so now that my depression has faltered, my anxiety has decided to come up. i only went to highschool on the first day of my freshman year. i decided to take online classes for the rest of the course which believe me did not help one bit. i failed the entirety of my freshman year due to lack of motivation and my now severe anxiety. i am now going into 10th grade, and i feel nothing but absolute embarrassment for myself. i don’t like it, having to basically repeat a grade just because my head wasn’t at the level i wanted it to be feels so extremely embarrassing. i value others opinions a lot, and i can’t help but think what others will say or think as soon as they find out i’m taking freshman classes in 10th grade. now, obviously this seems a bit dramatic considering i’m not in my last year of highschool and there’s still plenty of time to reverse my mistakes…. but i just genuinely feel that i will not be able to. i feel that i will be stuck in the same place for a while, that i will not be able to get my education due to my mental health. it sucks. it sucks so much. i had an ex friend who i dropped because she seemed to ignore me as soon as highschool started, she went out and made more friends and i was kind of the side piece at that point. good for her, i’m happy for her, but that again just makes me feel even more terrible about myself. we’re going to the same school. i can’t help but think that if i run into her,, what will she think? she’s excelling in basically everything.
idk man. i’m taking therapy and i’m on medication but this highschool stuff is just so incredibly overwhelming. i hope everyone else is doing alright tho. thanks for reading my incredibly long message :-)
edit sorry lol; not to mention i just feel so stupid. i struggle to do basic math, math is quite literally my worst subject. all of my school ‘motivation’ stopped as soon as we entered the pandemic. i had problems with school before (ex; being absent a shit ton) but i was still able to make it into honors classes and work my way up. i’m so scared for my future but right now watching this video is really, REALLY helping my anxiety. i cannot thank you enough, genuinely.
IVE read what you had to say and, well maybe you hear this a lot, or maybe not, regardless, everything will work out. I was in similar shoes to you, depressed, had full time anxiety and always cared about what others thought of me. High school was also pretty shit for me, I always had in and out grades, sometimes failing and sometimes doing good. I was always perceived as a “smart guy” by my peers purely because I was a well behaved kid and also bc of the kids I hanged out with. But I stopped caring about my grades, about what others thought. It was an act at first, I just pretended like I didn’t care about that stuff, but slowly and surely it started to work, I guess fake it till you make it. I went on my own self improvement journey as well and now I’m doing alot better. I guess just reiterating what the guy said, school isn’t everything and it definitely doesn’t define who you are. Find other things to focus on and treat school like a side quest, that’s what I did. I hope your journey in life gets better and you find peace in life. I wish you all the best, thanks.
I failed this junior year. My parents don't know yet. I'm trying to find a way to tell them and hopefully get my diploma. I just want to be able to help my parents and not be a disappointment.
@Joseph Pandoli thank you very much for your advice. And I hope everything goes well for you too.
The first step to not being a disappointment is to know what you want for yourself. And that's not something your parents can tell you, it's something you, and only you have to figure out.
Stop thinking about your parents and looks for ways to understand why getting an education is good for YOU
Yeah, I have to get the required credits to graduate, take the act test, and they said they want me to have training when I finish high school. There is an adult high school if you didn't get your high school diploma or completed your high school education. It sucks that I have to get so many assignments and get goals when I have the opportunity to get plans after graduation. I am lazy too, I am terrible at cooking so my parents cook breakfast for me, it's a pain in the butt how I am horrible at cooking in the future so I need to learn that. So yeah, this happens to me, I get so much work, tests, and projects. High schools are such a pain when you get more work compared to middle school. Pretty sure the academy gets so much work there too, I haven't attended an academy or magnet school. The high school I attend is public.
Failing at grade 11 right now, I'm so depressed right now. I need some tips I have almost all quizzes in math 😢
If someone you care about tells you you're a failure, it's depressing. If someone you *don't* care about says that, you wouldn't feel anything. Think that way about school, because it doesn't matter that much in the end. It just takes away the possibilities of being a doctor, lawyer, or other things that require an immense amount of mental effort.
