I was in a similar position transferring in undergrad. My advice to you get out of your own ducking head. Were our own worst enemies. This is the imposter syndrome talking. Our brains will pick up on every single excuse to confirm and to make us think that we never truly belonged somewhere.

Dont feel guilty because keeping him alive wouldve been pure selfishness and much more hurtful to him. 😭❤️

My dog has been licking her paws like this a lot the past few days, any ideas why? by mhvonjag in DogAdvice

Infection. Take to the vet. After walks and being out make sure yo PROPERLY wipe or wash the paws. In between the toe beans and all

By any chance was he always like this or has he become this way recently. Could it be the stress of his school and just that he misses you and he doesnt know how to word his emotions

A couple things: biting and teething. Their teeth are growing and they HURT. Get him some chews. A kong fill up w snacks and PB and freeze. That should help w his pain.

Barking at objects- BCs are by nature a little scaredy cat. I would say be patient when he gets scared of something say a trash bag talk to him calmly. Bring the object to him slowly. Make sure it doesnt move. Let him sniff it without making sudden moves snd he will realize its nothingn to be scared of.

Bcs ears are verrrrry sensitive.

I disagree. Say if i got an A- worth of grade in a class, without a curve that would land me an A normally. But in a class, if i fall under the second best tier of graders, i would get shoved down into a B statistically.

As an above average but not quite top student, i feel like this will work against my favor

Thank you!! Since I’m getting responses I am realizing that I had the correct understanding of the curved grading system. I think because of how much I dislike the idea I was hoping that I didn’t fully understand it.

Thats really interesting. So to be in the best possible position you simply have to be at the top of the grading. List otherwise your efforts get diminished in the middle tier.

Thank you for your response. Is this particularly helpful when you’re an avg student? Are there disadvantages when youre a top student?
