So my dream is to become a veterinarian, and I'm currently in my first year doing general requirements. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but last semester I passed 1/4 classes, and this semester ends in less than a month and I have ~60% in both of them (tech class where the assignments don't correlate with tests and the teacher never responds to emails, and 045/145 math). I'm trying my hardest and don't know what to do. If I keep failing, I'm just wasting money and having my parents be mad at me. I barely spend any time on things I enjoy anymore as most of my time is doing school work. At this point I'm trying to get a job so I can pay for my own stuff, and it would be my money for classes.
But I don't know what to do. My best isn't good enough and I can't do the classes I want to take until I get through general requirements. I know failure is a part of learning, but I'm not actually learning anything in my classes (just a memorize this and spit it out on a test) and it's depressing to just fail at everything.
I guess I'm just looking for advice on what others have done when/if in similar situations. On tests I'll think I know something and be confident, then I'll get it completely wrong and have a bad grade.
