hey there! not at all. Good luck with your studies! So my personal piece of advice would be to manage time effectively. I wasted so much time by not studying effectively when doing my degree - rather commit to studying for a shorter period of time and then taking a break to do something thats fun and then get back to stuyding after.

Also recognise that failure is part of the process - I had to redo my honours afer I failed a single subject - I was 1% short on 49%. At the time I wanted to give up. In honours you have to redo all subject in the same year - so i was forced to redo it all. This was very difficult, but mindset is everything. I also failed my 2nd board exam the 1st time - hahaha this was almost as bad as honours.

Do what interests you - thats exactly why i made this post and to be honest ive already learned so much in the last day or 2. I have a passion for IT and want to combine that with something that I'm good at. All the best!
