I've been a good student at Purdue.

I breezed through high school without studying.

Got my first bump in first semester freshman year where dropped a B or two. I developed my own study methods and managed to get mainly As in most my classes in subsequent semesters.

Now, this was my fourth semester and I am so scared I am going to fail. I need to get 60-90s on most midterms to get a C or over mainly because I fucked up atleast one midterm in each class.This is manageable but I am so scared I might fail something or the other. I have studied this semester but still ended up in this situation meanwhile my friends who have had the same trajectory seem to be doing just fine. I know Cs get degrees but the GPA tank gets me worried about potentially delaying my graduation (costing more) and affecting grad school. I do not really know what to do because I regularly update my study methods but still end up with stupid grades. I tried seeking help earlier in the semester with a few on campus resources but the help could not be more generic/lack of care which is fine because they see these cases literally everyday. It hits harder when it is personal.

I know I am not dumb because I am quick at understanding things and coming to solutions but I do not know why my exam/midterm averages have been so low.

I do not know what to do. I still have a few exams left.
