Don't know what to do
I am a 1st year college student and all my life I have been the best student, the one who got good grades and never seemed to fail a quiz and always had A's in all her classes. I recently haven't been doing as well as I want to in one of my classes. I do well in the class overall, I understand all the work, do good on assignments but when I go to take the weekly quizzes I fail and it's really stressing me out. I know these quizzes don't mean that I don't understand the material because I do which makes it all the more frustrating. I want to succeed soooo soo badly and I feel like every time I fail these quizzes it's like im failing in the class and failing in my degree. I honestly just don't know what to do to shake this feeling.

I hear you. I was in a similar situation my first year as well actually. I studied very hard, but it seemed like the quizzes were completely different from the material I studies. It’s hard not to feel frustrated and stressed when you're not achieving the results you want in school. Have you tried talking to your professor or a tutor about your concerns?💜

yes i go to them after every test or quiz and they say that it’s clear i know the information i just need to pay more attention but i already feel like i’m doing that so i’m not really sure what to do. Im am just going to keep trying new things and hopefully find a strategy that works for me

I totally understand how you feel. I've been through similar situations in school and it has been really tough. Sometimes no matter how much hard work we put in, we my not get exactly the results we want but you should be proud knowing you're doing the best you can. That's really all we can ask of ourselves and take it day by day.
