I'm not working hard enough and I can't do it.
I am a sophomore in college. I have a 3.33 gpa. I want to get into medschool but I don't think I can and its really affecting my work ethic. I'm in organic chemistry, Orgo lab, nervous systems and an English course. All of these classes to me feel EXTREMELY hard. All require me to read a lot of pages (I think around 100pgs?) a week. English right now is stressing me because I need to write a book review and I'm HORRIBLE at writing. I can't even bring myself to read the book and it's just stressing me out because I need to get quotes and actually know what the book is about to write it. With all of these stressed I've just felt like why am I even trying to get into med school. I don't have the drive, I don't know how to handle my stressed let alone help someone else. I feel like a failure and I should just pursue something else. But going to medschool is all I've ever wanted and so I don't know who I am with out it and I don't know where to start. I just feel like I'm drowning and my friends are also just barely above the water but they aren't drowning. Instead they are fixing it and finding ways to tread the water while I keep sinking. Maybe I should just be a housewife or something except I'm too depressing to be around because I can't even hold a normal conversation with anyone with out fucking up my sentences. Ugh I feel like I'm worthless.
@pinkBirch4110 College is not easy, it does require a lot of hard and determination. Don't let the stress get you down; you can do anything if you put your mind to it! It sounds like you've known your path in life for a long time so now that it's here go for it! You have the drive and opportunity it'll all be worth it in the end! Good luck and don't hesitate to reach out if you need us! This community is here for you!
yall i need some help. i am working really hard on my studies this year but some times i get really exhausted or it seems to not be helping me. could yall give me some studying tips and methods that help you, and also time management tips. thanks!
@crispPumpkin80 it's human nature to feel exhausted when u work too hard! I used to feel guilty taking a break from studying but I realized that breaks actually helped me focus better. Just make sure these breaks don't get too long (sometimes I study for 2 hours and my 20 min break turns into 4 hrs). I recently bought a timer from Amazon where I log in how many hours I studied (life of a medical student). Focus and be happy happy! You'll be able to achieve anything u want
