I did once. I got grounded despite being a university freshman. Tell me about the time you failed in class.

I've failed in the class of life - innumerable times. When the adolescent passion took over the sensible me. When I lost friends for no good reason. When life offered me the best of people and then took them away. When I won a race and lost a friend. I envy you. You are lucky to fail in a classroom of a university. Stay aware. Stay confident. Let the light shine within. It may not be visible but it is the ultimate string. Best regards, Medha.

@azzyrica biology in school time. Maths was always my favourite.

@sjvg1976 In Delhi, did you guys dissect animals for biology? If so, I can see why you hate it.

I usually did too but I was horrible in math. I wasn't prepared for college math, lol. What was your worst subject? Or the one you dreaded most?

Nothing worse than the tension of will I pass or will I fail? I was so close to getting a C. That D was like a big F in my college math class.

@jstory07 Exactly, had to spend $$$ on it. One good thing is that it prepared me to take college seriously. Did you take any measures in making sure you passed that near failure?

I've never failed a class. I have made Cs before but my parents are the kimd of patents that freak out if you get Cs. They just don't like the Ds & Fs. I'll be a senior in college this august & i have only made 3 Cs my entire time there and they were all math classes which i suck at & aren't major requirements for my major so i was just trying to get through them.

@azzyrica I am a science/mind kind of person. I am a double major in biology and psychology and I took my last math class this semester and I am so glad that I don't have to take another one. I know I can make As in all the classes that I have left and that will make my GPA look really good.

@magnumopus It's harder than it sounds. Mixing resting and studying is tricky.

My first failing grade was in 2nd year highschool ..I was too afraid to show my parents my failing grade so I gave it to my elder brother and let him sign the card

I failed once in accounting that's why I retake this subject. The funny thing was that I miss it by one single point.

The almost fail is just as tense as the fail-fail.
