@ShannonDoah29 I experienced this exact situation. Like exactly. I did great my first year, and then the second year wasnt great. I was doing so poorly that I actually got put on lacademic probation a couple times. It wasnt good. I felt like I had skipped too many classes and it wasnt worth the anxiety and embarrassment of going to class. I fell so behind and didnt graduate. I technically got to walk, but i felt like it wasnt real. Like it was a lie. That was 9 years ago and I still feel shameful for what happened. My parents spent so much money on me going to college and I just wasted it. Here we are, 9 years later, Im married with two beautiful children and be been slowly finishing my classes through an online college and Ive been getting straight As. I didnt have the discipline, nor did I think I was capable of good grades back then, but now its a totally different story. I have faith in myself and although Im taking my time, Im happy with myself.

@alol

have you felt that online is better than in person? Im thinking of doing online classes to maybe help ease some anxiety.
