I really don't know what is really happening to me. During my early days in college, I have the habit to study the lessons and I got high grades at the end of the semester. As time goes by, my interests in studying are fading. Is it me? or Is it the course? My family are expecting me to graduate on March 09. Unfortunately, I have failed subjects so I will not be able to get my diploma. I will be extending another semester. What's happening to me? Do we have same experiences?

I have a lot of friends here. None of them are influencing me. I think the problem is me. Sometimes I forgot to pass some subject requirements and I woke very late.

okay i see... i think you should try to scold yourself... i used to scold myself when i feel so lazy... it really helps... try to sleep earlier so that you'll not wake up late.. and..drink a lot of water... cuz it supports oxygen that needed in your body... it helps you to think smoothly... ^_^

I think this is a common problem to all of us.Suddenly a time comes when everything goes wrong.We can't concentrate on our studies.The same problem is happening to me also.But I never failed any class or semester.I think you should work hard as much as you can.And when time will go everything will be all right.Don't wary.......

That sounds unfair to me. Hehehe... lol... We have the same problem but then you doesn't have any fail marks. Keep it up... Its so frustrating that you fail a subject in school...

I think it's just the courses that you are taking. You are also getting older and losing interest in school. You probably lost interest around th time you realized that you were failing some courses. Just put your mind to it and get back in gear. You can do it and should. Good luck.

I think it is a combination of things. You are probably, like me, just plain tired of school. The majority of our lives so far has been in a classroom or doing things for those classes. It is getting extremely old. Then, of course, the classes are harder than they used to be. I'm sitting in Genetics and I'm already getting confused (a week and a half in). I'm going to have to go talk to the professor one on one to find out how to fix it. I am down to 3 semesters to go and each semester is harder to start. I have yet to fail a class, but before college I had never gotten lower than a B, I now have 5 Cs total. All I can say is you only have one semester, focus and I believe that you will be just fine. Good luck!
