Falling an exam for 10th time

Hi I'm Crimson, I've been falling this one exam for so long it's starting to feel hopeless. I'm aware that it is a hard subject and for 2-3 of those tries i genuinely didn't study (too preoccupied with other exams) but other times I did try but it feels like it's never enough. My professors ar no help either I've tried asking where to study from what to focus on but they alwas tell me to just study big things basic, and then on the exam day they ask everything BUT basics. I'm still not losing hope completely but my next exam is in 20 days and I've been staring at my book for last 2 hours and i just can't focus.

I feel like I've tried everything

Books

Notes

Audio from lesions

Online classes

But it's never enough

The subject itself is so interesting but i just can't do it somehow

It's too much and professors always expect us to connect it with other subjects some which we didn't even have yet.

I feel so pressured even tho no one is pressuring me

I feel ridiculous for still trying even after failing 10 times

I just don't know what to do

Time is running out

If i keep on failing I'm going to repeat this year and it's just not financially good for me

I don't know what to do

Any advice? Some study methods? Or tips

The subject is pathophysiology btw

@crimsontime

Is there any other students that have passed the exam that you can get advice or support from?

It's not stupid of you to keep trying.

It's takes strength and character to keep going and giving it a shot 💛

And I genuinely wish you the best moving forward 💛

Hi, thanks for replay and hugs ð¥°

Well there are some students that passed

Three of which are my friends

But mostly they were either lucky or studied more than me at that time

2 out of 3 my friends passed because even tho they did study just basics but they were with different professor and at that time I truly didn't study or know enough to pass

My last friend barely passed with this one professor that I'm honestly starting to hate, he tells us to study basics but ask everything BUT basics, he will verbally put you down if you make slightest mistake even if it's just a mispronounced word or something. I don't know how she passed he was going to fail her but for some reason he decided that she can't do better just worse and decided to end her suffering and fail her. He then threw a hissy fit because she had high grades and he couldn't give her the lowest grade. It was so awkward.

I'm just hoping that he isn't the one there on the day of exam
