Q: So throughout my entire life, I have gotten all A's and B's... until now.

I'm a freshman in college, and the change from high school hit me pretty hard. I'm still doing well enough, but I got a C+ and it nearly killed me. I've never gotten that type of grade before! The worst part is it was in Biology, which is my major!!!

I'm doing a little better this semester, but I really want to kick it into high gear and get my grades back up. I have A's and B's in my other classes, but a C+ in the class I'm majoring is unacceptable.

Since I go to a private college, I know it's only going to get worse as the years go on. I'm continuing taking Biology next year and I'm going to start taking Chemistry too.

I need lots of study tips, maybe some good study web sites for each subject (Bio and Chem), and any advice related. Thanks so much in advance!!!

Have you ever thought about recording your teacher's lectures so that you can go back and listen to them in your free time?
That makes it easier for you to catch things that you missed.
I know you are taking notes. But hif you hear something and you think its not important, write it down anyway.
Also go over your home work before a test or before you turn it in. Write down anything that you thought was a little complicated so you can go over it before a test.

Its A brand new year!! And I havent really been giving advice lately so now IM BACK!! If you have something to ask dont hesitate to ask. DONT BE SHY!! I've been there! Or I know someone who has!

I am a black albino female whose been through alot!!! I have a lot advice to give. Im a very knowledgeable person, and i look at things from many different views. Im very blunt, so if you dont want to hear it straight dont ask me!! any thing else you wanna know get at me!

LET ME REINTRODUCE MYSELF REAL FAST, REAL QUICK!
iM A BLUNT PERSON, IF YOU ASK A GROWN UP QUESTION, IMA GIVE A GROWN UP ANSWER. RECENTLY A GIRL ASKED HOW TO GIVE A BLOWJOB AND I WAS VERY BLUNT AND UPFRONT WITH HER. I GOT SHUNNED FOR MY ACTIONS SO, BASICALLY. IM GOING TO TRY TO AVOID ANSWERING QUESTIONS LIKE THIS. BECAUSE ALL THOUGH THESE KIDS ASKING THESE QUESTIONS ARE YOUNG, THEY OBVIOUSLY BEEN DOING SOMETHING THEY AINT GOT NO BUSINESS DOING BECAUSE THE WOULDNT BE ASKING THOSE TYPES OF QUESTIONS.
