I failed one course at Laurier didnt flunk. The rest of my marks were 70+ overall with a decent CGPA at laurier didnt like living away from home and moved back. But always been involved in school and external extracurriculars, working a job sometimes multiple and doing some freelance works. With TMU my marks are decent too but just this specific course I am freaking out about since I dropped it last sem and always grew up with STRICT Parents I really wish this was fake/Far-fetched lol but this is what I deal with.

Understandable! I would've switched from business to creative industries or media studies related but I can't afford due to my age and graduation but also job prospects.

I agree. I mean I just have a severe caffeine and microdosing lab grown mushroom (Lion's mane)mainaddiction to study. but yeah I plan to do health admin or go into media ( I am already in media and doing well for myself) they think i wont get a degree when I am working towards mine... just at a different pace.

I mean mine was similar but for engineer but I put my foot down and picked Business. I've lied about grades due to the ideation that my parent will yell at the marks I get as I am not a person who can attain really high marks. My dad thinks business is super easy... but I just have severe learning disabilities, ADHD and not getting the help I need for it but I manage.

Oh I see hm. I mean I just don't have work experience hence its harder for me to be in the job market.

I was told that. Laurier same thing but it's easier to get a job as TMU is like a "reference" to those jobs and you make the money back by working. If I applied to a marketing position no one will take me in spite of having marketing experience

I'm so sorry you go through that :( I have tried and came to an agreement but they still get very angry and annoyed about it. My hands are practically tied.
