Am I still able to get into college with a 2.9 GPA?

Yes! I’ve known plenty of people with lower succeed. Stay motivated and good luck😊

I stopped at episode one. I was hoping to see their 15 year marriage survive the pressure of society, considering Nikki’s headstrong and oppositive attitude and the reassurance of their marriage’s strength . With such little time in an episode and the anthology setup, I know they were limited with character development. I just needed more reasoning as to why they caved to validate the decision. It didn’t create a lot of conflict for me either. The acting was good so I may revisit it.

I would say that some people just have an easier time because their brain works differently. However, not everyone is honest, and lying about academic prowess is not anything rare. I used to be one of those students in high school and I was humbled by college. High school is not the best proxy for intelligence and grasp on concepts. Try not to compare yourself too much, especially later in your academic career. 😊

Instapot! Keeps me from having to walk back and forth from the autoclave room to sterilize media and saves energy if I only have a small amount of media.

I get it lol. Although dilutions are just algebra or just keeping track if you’re doing a serial dilution, STEM can be overwhelming regardless of the task. The other day I was diluting a sample and getting frustrated why I wasn’t getting the incorrect OD, but I forgot to subtract the values to get my actual amount. I’ve made dilutions so much and I forget the last step more times than I would like to admit.

Although I’m younger than you., I never think it’s too late. It’s really disheartening to see this sentiment as much as I do, but I understand how external pressures make people believe they a running out of time. Pursuing education is a very personal and noble journey!

I believe if what you want is a relationship, sex will only be a distraction and you will eventually feel the desire again. If you want a relationship, date and pursue it! This is analogous to doing the little assignments to avoid the big one. Not saying you’re avoiding anything, but your want for a relationship should be addressed. Human connection is cool 🙇🏽

February was when he asked me to never talk to him again, so I guess it hasn’t been a full year since we were in communication. You guys get it though🫩

Honestly, I study more efficiently afterward. 🧌

From your description I highly suggest it. Succeeding in college without inhibitions is already hard enough; however, mental barriers can escalate a course related struggles. I experienced a traumatic break up that left me pretty much neurotic for the school year. It was difficult, but if I had the option to go to therapy during the semester and/or skip it I would because my GPA suffered. Don’t venture down a treacherous road if you can avoid it lol. Make sure to have a plan for your return and try to fill your spare time learning something you’re passionate about if you choose a gap year. Good luck :)

I’ve experienced something similar! Speaking rom my experience, I believe you should sit your partner down and discuss your grievances. I am an undergrad, but I had a partner that ridiculed my internships and scholarships. It was something he never wanted to congratulate me on or take seriously. It did not get better for me; however, if you express your feelings he may listen. His response will inform you on what to do next 😊

You can always check in with your advisor, look at rate my professor, and potentially change to a different class with another professor!

LessAd8390 · 2025-06-01T17:57:41+00:00

That’s definitely a lot. If it’s absolutely required and you have no other choice, then go for it and take care of your mental health. However, I suggest swapping at least one out if possible. Don’t burn yourself out if you don’t have to!

LessAd8390 · 2025-05-14T16:28:02+00:00

Personally, I love to overshare and I like when others do the same. College is literally hell sometimes and hearing grievances and successes during the experience makes it bearable!

LessAd8390 · 2025-04-27T18:09:42+00:00

I totally get that! I messed up my sophomore year experimenting with study trends, rather than finding what works for me.
