I wish my parents were as supportive as yours.
Dont worry bro god believes and supports you so do i😊
Yes bro me too I wish my parents were
Eh, my would just destroy me mentally, so if I fail I’d just go straight for suicide without even coming home from school the day I find it out
This is me in my first semester of pure and applied math. I want to become a math professor and love math, yet in my first semester of college I just wasn't well prepared. I expected it to be as easy as highschool, but I was very wrong. Moreover, I have the drive to succeed. I'm taking this first semester as a lesson learned. I can't study for exams a few days prior like I used to before. I just wish I knew that before I messed up, but honestly, this might be exactly what I need in order to be in the right track. I've never experienced the feeling of failing a class or going into an exam feeling like I'm not ready at all. I feel like crying, but I refuse to do because inside me I know I am better than what the letter grade will say of my transcript.
I wish I can say that. The feeling of failing is killing me so bad. I’m failing my semester and that means I need to re-take some exams, and revise some modules from zero.
I used to be one of the tops and now I’m the only one failing, I know I didn’t work hard but I also don’t deserve this.
I was always intelligent but I’m not anymore, I’m comparing my self a lot to other people, I’m always negative, I can’t focus, I can’t think straight, I’m totally lost.
Getting up is hard but I will prove my self the next semester, even if I hardened everything but as long as I’m alive I will try and try and try and work hard.
Ps: I think I’ll start crying lol
Bro same. Don’t fret. I took calculus for the first time at college and I still passed. Freshman year is the year to mess up. From here on out, we learn from mistakes
Sir thank you so much sir! I just gave my engineering mathematics exam today and I'm definitely gonna fail 😭 Actually, I want to be an astrophysicist and i feel like it's a shame to fail in a subject that is so important to me! I still have a strong desire within myself but seeing others achieving and me doing nothing is making me more depressed ( I know comparison shouldn't be made but I just can't stop doubting about myself) 😓
@@Saad_Khan1729 Take it as a lesson man. University is all about working hard, especially if you're doing engineering, math, physics, chemistry, and so on. You have to do a lot of practice problems to understand. That said, you also need discipline because motivation only won't get you through the degree
@@ChristophPr you're right! I'll remember that! Thanks for that :) feeling motivated to work even more harder now!
I'm really worried, I studied so hard but I still didn't do well this first semester. I'm really scared I Can't aspire to become a Physical Therapist or anything, thank you so much for this, thank you so much for sharing your experience
You got it ❤
Im scared too.. if i cant study and get a degree how r we going to find good paying jobs to be able to have a roof over our heads
I failed at my first year too. I was depressed, missed my boyfriend, ended up breaking up with him. Around that time I was studying English Culture and Literature. I hated it. I hated the professors they were mean like all the time for no reason. Never helpful, just condescending. All my classes were in English, my English was good but not that advanced. This was a top university which I was studying with a full scholarship and low attendance was a deduction cause for your grades. I developed a huge social anxiety. For every class there was a presentation that you had to do. It was impossible for me to pass. Didn't leave my room for days, didn't shower for longer that I usually do. I pulled myself together after some point. I changed my major to American Culture and Literature, because if I didn't I thought I would lose my scholarship and no way my parents could afford the school without it. There wasn't really a soft cushion I could lend. My parents are pretty much feed, clothe and send them their way kind of people and very toxic. I started therapy. Thank God it was provided by school. I did better, had some better and some very nice professors. Graduated. You know what, I didn't grow a lot on this side, that I still partly hate my parents and I hate that school and some professors because they miss the point consistently. I have lots of ailments, chronic pain, fatigue, anxiety, and now probably an auto immune disorder and I still have to pick up some pace through this(unemployment) and help myself. I hate it but I am going to try my best. (I have a great fear of science classes always did poorly on math and sciences. But ironically, the only A I got in university was a course called Physics for Poets. The teacher was the coolest guy. He had a speech impairment, very empathetic and nice.)
Thank you for sharing your story. It is not easy to share things as personal as this. But as I always say the challenges we face in life we must embrace because it is what is going to make us of who we are and in return to be able to help others that will go through similar experiences. Thank you again for sharing and know that someday you will be an inspiration to others because of your challenges that you faced and learned to overcome.
Thank you sp much for sharing your story I'm studying abroad I always got grades in school in my country but my grades are so low I'm depressed
@Sp_official22 Hey, stranger on the internet. I hope you get through these tough times. I'm on an almost similar boat as yours, and it is really hard indeed. So, I wish you wellness. Remember, these harsh times are just a character development chapter early on in our lives. Hope you get to achieve what you want.
Your first semester wasn't dumb. It is two or three hard classes per semester. I did the mistake of being a full-time student with the wrong classes and I learn the lessons of why time manage and adapt to college back when I was young. Some professors or personal life can alter your grades; however, I likes the helpful professor. Some professors can be condescending or rude.
That's just what is happening with me now , i can't do well in the simplest exam unlike everybody
Nah my experience has been so humbling!! As a CC student I did so well and maintained a very nice GPA. As soon as I started at university studying pre-med it had become so challenging out of nowhere! I’ve failed classes and haven’t made higher than a C in any of my core classes (besides Ochem) but did well in my elective classes🙄. I really don’t want to switch my major because it’s my dream to become a doctor. So now I’m doing a bunch of retakes and pushed my graduation back a year to rebuild my GPA and fix up my transcripts.
How do you fix up your transcript?
@@lilianlopez23 with my school even though your pass courses you may have not done well in, if you retake them for a better grade they’ll accept it towards your current GPA. The only downside is it will still show on them.
oh ok, I wasn't sure because I heard some schools counted both grades toward their gpa@@sdbeauty1027
Thank you...I failed my second year completely:( I hope I will be granted the opportunity to continue and retake all the modules I failed
I just failed my second semester so badly
@@Shinku7You got this! Come back stronger
i failed my first semester but i know I can do better in the next one. you can too! you got this
I can't tell you how encouraging this was as a Dyslexic student in college. Thank you! God bless you!
I failed at everything I ever tried in life. Adhd, traumatic brain injury, dysgraphia are my disabilities. I have never had anyone to help me in my life. I'm now about be on my 12th job in the 11 years I've been working. I just feel like throwing in the towel and going on disability at this point. Most people in society cannot and will not help you. Especially in the work place to accommodate you and be successful. At least that's been my experience.
Man I thought my life sucked. I’m sorry. What about your parents? Did you get shafted with bad ones like I did?
@@GuitarGangsterArmi yeah, unfortunately I had the same issue. My dad left when I was 8 months old. And my was partly responsible for my traumatic brain injury. She had me at 34 days old sitting in a floor board of a Ford ranger when we hit head on without a car seat. I had terrible parents man.
Wow you've came such a long way! This channel is cool because it not only about ADHD from a doctors explanation and not just someone who has it but someone who is a doctor who actively works through it.
Thank you so much for your kind words. You made my day! and hope I can continue to bring you great value 😊🙌
I can feel you tearing up talking about it. It makes me wanna cry. I get it, I really do. I’m currently in limbo, as a senior in biology. I’ve failed one too many courses and I’m applying for a mental health drop for one of the classes so I can stay in my major. I’m not sure if it’ll go through, but I’ve always wanted to get my doctorates, be an academic and I’m still hoping that I can be. Thanks for sharing your story. I’m glad things worked out for you ❤
I really needed this, thank you ❤
I failed my first year of college too ! But I live in the beautiful country of france where if you fail your first year of medicine you cannot go to medical school anywhere in the country ever again yaaaay ( no I definitely don’t feel like dying )
So what happen you went to the second turn or study the first year again?
😂😂😂❄️ get up and do better
Your mum sounds so respectful and encouraging, something I never experienced so next time you see her tell her how special she really is. Congratulations.
Congratulations on becoming a doctor. Lots of successful people have experienced failing certain classes, grades, assignments, etc. Lots of really good drivers failed the driver's test the first time they took their driver's test. Lots of really good CPAs failed the CPA exam the first time they took the CPA exam. Lots of really good lawyers failed the bar exam the first time they took the bar exam. Lots of very intelligent people have experienced failing classes in college. I know a very intelligent person that failed a lot of classes in college and dropped out of college. When he went back to college, he ended up getting A's and B's and getting a degree.
Some people are very knowledgeable about certain subjects but aren't good at teaching those subjects to people in ways they can understand. Not everyone is cut out for teaching. Having the right teacher can definitely affect how well you do in a class.
I wish you the best.
This is very encouraging thank you so much for sharing ❤❤❤
Thank you for this
I felt that. Thank you, i needed to hear that
Thank you so much I am truly great full that you found it impactful 😊👋
Thanx for sharing!!!
This is sooo eye opening for those who are going through certain processes& symptoms & not knowing whyy. Ive completed 117 cr hrs undergrad due to overfocusing. I also desire to become a dr was told because im not good at math, math scores werent high enough. I had a professor tell me to get tested for learning disability---he saw me do the workbook & study guide, practice tests & still get a bad grade he said i shouldve scored higher!!!!
I know im smart just not the same way others display it!!!!
Thank you for sharing your story ❤️🙏🏽
I am truly humbled that you enjoyed my story 😊
Excellent job!!!
I had the same experience when I was a high-school senior getting ready to go te college. I was oriented in the medicine field but I had problems with my biology and chemistry teacher that did not supported me. In the same way they told me that I was not good in science and I will never be a good doctor. Their words demotivated me and I didn't go to medicine. As a result I started a software engineering degree. I also had a lot of struggles with math in high school, luckily the math professor there was very supportive and made me boost my confidence. Later on, I got only good grades in her subject. Thanks to her now I'm concerned that I can do good in sciences and also repent that I left medicine for others opinions.💕
I’m doing a pre-med degree and I’ve been so close to failing each semester and I questioned at one point if I should change degrees altogether. It’s because my drive to become a doctor isn’t as strong as in high school. I underestimated uni life and I have imposter syndromes. My mindset is that if I can’t even do well at this, how will I become a doctor? I’m lost ngl, but this video reminded me that failing once doesn’t deter you from reaching your goal. I wanna do my best even though this degree may not be for me… I hope to figure things out soon.
(I’m a second year student)
I really needed to hear this. I have severe ADHD and so does my son. I decided to go back to college. I did great in summer semester and fall (even got a scholarship for outstanding adult student) but now in spring I have all the hard sciences and maths. I think I'll at least be retaking one of these classes and it hurts to see those around me doing well and not understanding what I am doing differently. I am trying so hard and still struggling. I hope that I soon can pick myself up and move forward. I want to do better and be proud of myself. I want to show my kids if you put your mind to it you can do it.
I have bipolar and schizoaffective disorder, last semester and this summer, I found it really difficult to focus. I would have the extreme highs and stay up all night studying, just to crash and burn after a few weeks, and have to bounce back. This went on at least every few weeks, which really hurt my overall score and gpa. I just don’t know how to stop the cycle when it all feels completely out of my control. Sometimes I wish I was a different person 😢I’m retaking the courses I failed, but I don’t qualify for FSA, so I’ve been paying OOP, which has been at least $1300. I just don’t think I can financially support another failure, but I outta try I guess.
Show ur kids, David Goggins!!! The man is a legend hes an inspiration for every human on this Earth. And by the way congrats for doing it ur awesome. Keep pushing
Damn this video is really motivating 😭 i am failing my classes and I am so demotivated right now but I really want to be a nurse so thank you for this motivating video ❤ 😭
Love your story 😊
Glad you liked my story 😊
This is how i felt , and what I realized in life is very comparable to how you kinda are in school. Listen i play a lot of video games and i grind for my ranks competitively... But over time I get to a peak where i am not improving and i simply give up on the game. I treated the same with education , i was in 3rd year engineering and i literally could not pass dynamics which was the hardest most difficult course you had to get thru before taking all your major upper division courses. I grinded tht course and i tried getting tutor but somehow it just wasn't clicking. So many things to remember... I looked at all the practice problems.. when mid terms came along the professor threw a literal wrench into these exams... The 4 out of 5 questions on the exam was never covered and nowhere close to how it should look on the dynamics practice problems. And yes the questions were all dynamics related , he actually made it where you had to understood the concepts of how to get to the solution using dynamics course he taught and not what the book teaches... So after studying 30 different types of problems... Hours of pure grind..allowed to use one sheet for notes... I came nowhere to passing. It was the time i realized tht this engineering wasnt for me. I got burnt out and dropped out of college. I attended csuf and my professor was david naish, im not gonna lie hes a great professor.. just I wish i tried harder. Maybe i didnt attend enough of his classes , i dont remember. If i can do it all over again I would. :(
Pretty in the fall of this year this was my first year attending a college, let alone a school setting after 6 of being out of school and trying to get by in life. I have ADHD as well. I was not ready for everything.
I am not doing so hot and probably need to retake my classes. Everything literally overwhelmed me and crushed my drive so much.
I really wanna be a good nurse. I'm terrified of failing, but it's apart of learning. I wanna make my folks proud so badly...
Same. Totally bombed the entire 2nd year and dropped my GPA to 1.7... Joined the Navy to get education benefits and got a BS with TA while active duty. Finally, I'm getting to the point where I'm going to go back to school, and that old failure is preventing me from transferring to the school I wanted to attend to finish an engineering degree. I have a degree and a career already, so going to school is only for myself. But I also have dependents now, so giving up a 6-figure salary to go back to school when I am not guaranteed to even be allowed to transfer and work towards my Masters is a hard choice to make. It just really irks me that I failed something that I was capable of completing successfully. It's been 8 years since I left school, and I can't let it go.
I've failed in foundation in interior designing and i have no idea what to do
😢so supportive parents is the answer
ive failed my enitre first year of uni in finance because i was heavily procrastinating because while being arrogant at first thinking that there wasn't much to studty to being overwhlmed in the end when my exams were about to start and my second year i only chose two courses in my program bachelor of finance and i passed one but failed one but ive made improvements from being procrastinating to actually doing some work and now i regret procrastinating my first year of uni which im hoping that i can redo my first year after my third year/last year of the program and than doing an extra year to redo my first year which i mainly got F1 or F2 but still im still mainly worried about my intership and getting an actual job in a company about when my employers look at my resume and see that ive failed my entire first year and failed one out of two course in my second year of my first semester
I did really really bad on an exam today my dad yelled at me and I thought I would fail the year and my life would be a mess
hello! just wanted to come on here because i am an optimist and i feel like everything is going to be okay. but i am currently a biochem major in my second year of college and my first year was absolutely horrible as i had a lot going on with a bad roommate, and also financially it was super hard. this recent semester, i had to retake a few classes and i passed all of them but chemistry. AGAIN. i know, its crazy because it's in my major. although i failed though i am determined to try again and graduate with my major because i know that i am capable of doing so much better from now on. i have learned to take a failed class as a learning experience, and now i know how to improve. i plan to go into med school after college as well and become a dermatologist, and i have a long way to go. anyways, this comment is all over the place but i just wanted to share what I'm going through so that maybe someone else going through the same thing doesn't feel alone, and I AM DEFINITELY NOT GIVING UP!!
I want to be a legislator so much and I want to help people, but I just grasp anything, I feel like a disappointment to my family.
I have diagnoses of dyspraxia, ADHD and Aspergers traits after my education .
I got my degree in 1999 aged 20, pgdip in the U.K, in 2000.
Congratulations on graduating. I had problems with college as a result of undiagnosed dyspraxia, ADHD. I struggled, I had low self esteem. I am aged 44, next week. I received a diagnosis of dyspraxia, aged 33, my family doctor, would not accept my report, I received a diagnosis of ADHD, August 2020, aged 41, Birmingham UK, travelling 100 miles.
Good luck with your future endevaours.
Thank you for sharing your story! I hope you the best on your endeavors as well 😊
This is my first term and I am felling phychology class. Last test I got 6/50 and ppl been telling me to quit but I don’t want to and i really want to keep going. I am not getting any help from anyone even my own parents, they told me to quit and go find a job, I am not understanding anything and I don’t know what I am doing
You had me at the first half
i thought i was the only one who noticed this, he went to ND (Naturopathic Medicine) school which has an acceptance rate of 60 to 100 percent. Very competitive.
Most of naturopathic medicine is pseudoscience, he really had us at the first half.
You just inspired a future doctor from the pacific islands who is going through same challenges
I got a grade c in chemistry and my professor said it is impossible to get an A if you are getting a C because no one jumps up two grades.. guess what I got an A I laboured intensively over past papers and material and got that A😅. I am in uni right now and might fail my first year because I might fail my placement after having passed all my exams. But I have planned for that eventuality and phoned around to different unis so I can get onto their courses… I will take this past uni year as a learning experience and take forward the feedback and get better at practice.
Im failing the first year for the second time in med school i do love medicine im passionate but idk what to do anymore should i jst quit
what are some studey methods you used?
Im really scared on what is happening in the future i feel like idk what to do now
Don’t worry it’s just baby steps not a big jump so you will build it by yourself by the time moving
My dad made fun of me and put me down when I failed.
Next week is our second semester midterm exams and I'm so lazy to do my now too late activities which some of them are now closed and I still haven't studied. I'm a IT student btw, also our laboratory exam is on Monday, I'm not prepared. Here I am making excuses again
How are you doing now? I'm also an IT student who's in a not-so-good position right now. Hope you're doing well!
Im in term one first year uni already thinking of droping out😢
Trust me I'm in my first year of med school its the worst I can't believe that I m having those grades it makes me feel like college is not for me all of my classmates are passing except for me I don't know what to do this is a nightmare I wish that i only pass this year and stop thinking about those grades
Real, same....
This is a very good video for all college students.
The music was too loud. Please turn the music down.
I was having a hard time hearing you.
Thank you.
My adhd fucks with me all the time

@@TheMajesticKnight fucking great man, I passed all the exams I had to pass and now I'll start studying all the new stuff.
I think if a school refuses to give you credit after failing GET AN ATTORNEY! Because you worked hard in a class/test. Do thd same thing if you get kicked out of college for failing too many courses! Everyone has a right to an education! Regardless of level!
I'm dead
I’ve been saying for the last year that if I was rich in life I would invent colleges or Waze for people with ADHD or non-urgent Google people to get a college degree cause it’s not right that we with non-Neurotypical brains can’t get ours degrees and can’t go on and have a dream career but others can
I’m sure there’s a way to network with others to make a dream like that work.
Hi, how did you get the idea of “ non neurotypical people can’t get a degree” from?
My government will sue me if I fail 💀.
But when the teachers are all unsupportive thats were the problem is
are you a physician?
Yes 😊
@@doctorlegrand so you did go to med school and are a MD?
@@regsneider2700 thats what being a physician means
@@isaacc3162he’s not a physician. Larping as one to be deceitful to the public
While I fully support the message, the title is misleading. A degree in naturopathic medicine doesn’t allow you to call yourself a “physician” in a medical setting; it is in fact illegal.
While the message is failure is not the end of the road, this is incredibly misleading because there are many students your have rough starts and want to be actual physicians later in life. If you fail a year of college, as I did, it takes a lot of time and hard work to then get admitted to a U.S. MD/DO school and to become a physician. If you want to be a physician after a failure there are no short cuts. You will have to put in the work.
Tomorrow is my first Exam...i know im gonna fail it. My professor sucks and its clear he doesnt want to teach.
I just failed the first year of vet school , but the thing that i don't feel that upset because i know that i didn't put my mind 100% to it , but this year is gonna be my changing forever , and i hope the next year i will pass 🩺❤️ i didn't tell my parents cuz they will blame me they not supportive.
