Last semester I barely received a C but I want to change levels this semester for this science class. I am becoming very stressed and I am always catching up with the rest of peers, even understanding targets the night before a test, that is if I understand it. I know I'm going to fail this semester because I am already doing bad and already too late to catch up with the rest of the class. Should I not be in an honors class? The pressure is too much and it is causing me to not be myself in everyday activities, including my behavior with my family and/or friends. I know it is better for college, to be in an honors class and persevere rather than change to a regular class but it is becoming too much for me to handle. (link)

I suggest that you take a course you can excel at. If its not honors for this science course then you should switch to regular. Challenging yourself is one thing, but don't kill yourself for a B or C when you could easily be getting straight A's or B's in a regular class. While it's true that colleges like to see honor courses on your transcript, it's not worth taking it if you can't keep up with the material. To be honest, it's actually braver to say you can't handle something then go through with it. I switched to regular math this semester and I feel a hell lot better.
Hope this helped,
Hisaru

Thank you! That is exactly what I needed to hear to do what I need to do, but have been afraid of. I didn't want to feel like I was the only one this ever happened to. :)
