Ok well college has been stressing me out so much that its been putting me in a suicidal depression (althought I'm not suicidal at this momrnt, I know if I was that the rules of this forum would forbid you to help me) Basicly it seems like each class is life or death, like if I can't finish college then I'm never gonna be able to get a good job and I'll be out on the street. And I get so worried that I'm gonna fail certain classes My plan is that if I fail a class, that I'll retake it during the summer. At my school, if u fail a class and then retake it and pass it, your F from the first time you took it won't effect your gpa (althought it will still appear on your transcript). I'm assuming a lot of other colleges have the same policy Basicly I just want to know what you think, how big of a deal is it to fail a college class??? If u retake it and get an A, will it really hurt you that much??? No spam please, this is really important. All spam will be reported Thank you

I feel this way too. It sucks. And although the option exists to retake it, I feel like that still isn't viable because it'll appear on your transcript. But then again, my goal is to be a pharmacist, so it's like I have to be perfect. At least if I make it through it, I'll have a good, well-paying job.

The best course of action if you think you are going to fail a class is to withdraw, and that way you will recieve a grade of W instead of an F. A W on your transcript is ten times better than an F. Then you can retake the class later.

I think you need to talk to someone at your college. They can tell you both what it means and advise you how to avoid or deal with stress ( thousands of students have deal with this before ). Start with Counselling Services or (if they call it the same thing as here, the Registrar's office)
