      I think failing a final helps you build your confidence and improve your knowledge/skills. We are going to encounter failure in life but striving will keep you going and not give up. It helps you grow and get far in life. I had failed finals as well but I didn't let it get you me. I didn't bring myself down. I picked myself up and moved forward to get where I am today. Two degrees in Computer Science. I look back at it and I'm grateful for pushing myself to be strong in the mind. So I think your video was great giving your personal experience and give others to stay positive and grow from it.

    I really appreciate your candor and transparency in this video, and on your channel in general. Something that I had to come to terms with this year, in my senior year of high school is that I'm not good at everything. I was raised as a prodigy and so failure was not a part of my vocabulary until it was. It was hard and it still is, but it's like you said the past is the past and we have to let ourselves grow from these experiences.

    This video is so great!! Don't worry bro just keep up that positive attitude and you will accomplish your goals!! During my first year at my university in Canada, I felt the same pain and frustration after realizing I had failed one of my exams but receiving a D in the course felt worse. My first year at my uni was hell because I had also received a C and C+ in two of my other courses. After receiving those grades it was a real wake up call. I realized I really had to work my ass off and change up a lot of things so that I won't make the same mistake again. During my second year as a university student, I studied like crazy and ended off the year with an A+ in one of my courses and for my other courses, I received all A's. Looking back now, I recognize how those failures helped me grow as a person and how it helped me develop better study methods and habits. Don't let failure keep you down if you have failed then you have the potential to grow and overcome any previous shortcomings.

If so I would recommend checking out nurse practitioner! As a NP you basically perform the same duties as a primary care physician. To become a nurse practitioner you don’t have to major in nursing for undergrad but you need general prereqs for the masters or doctorate program. Hopefully this makes sense! Let me know!

      That’s literally the point, you only really know something if you can apply your knowledge in unfamiliar surroundings. If you only know how to do a problem because you’ve done it before, you don’t know shit.

      Lmao what the fuck is the point of math if you can just memorize a problem? That is not what math is for. Im glad your college does it like this.

    I am also an economics major. I go to UT and god damn those finals were tough, I got a C on my Calculus final which sucked, but I was in the same boat. I figured out what I need to do to better prepare myself for future finals and didn't let it take a toll on me. Glad to see even people at the top notch schools go through the same things.
    Keep up the good content!

    Hey Nic! I happened to be going to the same high school as you and am now a freshman at The University of North Texas. It's been full of so many great memories, and I've made some fantastic grades within my very first semester. However, I found my way to this video after I *completely* bombed an Italian exam just a few days ago. I got really devastated and was upset at myself because I didn't meet my hopes and expectations; no matter how hard I was studying or reaching out for help, it just didn't work out. I really appreciate your advice, as it made me come to terms with myself. I failed, and now it's in the past.
    What can I do now to continue to put my best foot forward? It's unrealistic to expect perfection on every single thing that I do here. By acknowledging my mishaps, I know that I can make the most of every opportunity to do my best. I still have a long road ahead of me, and it won't always be easy. It was so great to listen to what you had to say, and made me realize I'm not alone on this crazy journey that is college.
    Thank you so much for making this video! I dropped you a subscription and hope you hit that glorious 50K mark soon!

    A fellow Princeton freshman here. I couldn't agree more with you- being here is a shocking experience and has already taught me so much about myself. Just like you, I have experienced my fair share of setbacks (dropped two classes) but every day I must keep telling myself that I shouldn't compare myself to others or think of it as a determining factor in my future.
