So my whole life ive been a bad kid, always doing drugs and fighting. 3 years ago i was kicked out of school and i havent gained any academic knowledge since. I was off school for 6 months until i got put into a PRU (Pupil Referal Unit) ever since i joined there my behaviour just got even worse and i don't know why. Ive been going 2 and a half years now and i have not gained any academic and im still as bad as ive always been. I am scared for what will happen once i leave as i am meant to be doing my GCSE's soon.

I really don’t know where else to say this, so I’m on Reddit. Lately, I don’t know what is wrong with me as why I am acting the way I do. I am usually a very studious person and always get high grades but lately I have been at my worse and I don’t know what to do. Everyone is expecting so much from (including me) but I am always tired and having trouble studying and focusing. I don’t know if this is because I am burnt out or I’m falling behind academically but I am super concerned. Studying was the only thing that I was proud of but if I can’t do that either, then what am I to do. When usually I score in the high 90s on my math exams, I scored a 75%. Despite all this, I still feel lost and just want to sleep and cry all the time. I don’t even know how to improve and do better academically. To add onto that, I have been getting distracted too often and it has been effecting my studies too much then it should. I am going to university next year and I am scared that I won’t be able to keep up and fail everyone. Is this normal? Should I be concerned? What can I do?

Hey, I’m a 22 year old full time college student living in Colorado with a part time job responsible for my own tuition and unsure if we’ll have FASFA next year.

The biggest problem right now is budgeting my food. Eggs are 13$. Eggs. I’m spending close to 60$ at Walmart for 1 week, maybe 10 days, on veggies, chicken which I freeze and only when it’s on sale, and other staples like yogurt and rice.

Of coarse then I have rent and car costs like regular maintenance and my insurance, and phone bill.

How am I supposed to afford this in this economy, after the new tariffs it’s only gotten more expensive. At the very least to find cheap healthy food. I’m not going to live off ramen and Big gulps.

Any advice please.

So I am third year pharmacy student. I've never been genius or smart student from my school life but I was way better than average students 1 of top 10 in class in my SSC board I got 95 percent as every smart ass delusional teen would do I opted for science stram ( by the way corona pendamic was just started in my 10th due which my last paper was cancelled) and due to corona all my schedule disturbed I got lazy 🦥 just like sloth all 11th, 12th was wasted, attempted NEET failed miserably got admission in better collage of pharmacy where I cleared my 2 yrs without a back ,A.T.K.T . Hence I wasn't feeling dumb enough .... Now I am preparing for entrance exam where I just went through general aptitude questions and I realised I can't solve the simplest one ,I felt miserable however I thought it wasnt regular and I didn't prepared for it but when I sat in classroom and my teacher started doing questions then I realised I can't think logically I can't think about questions those questions was so easy that 8th-9th grade student would solve easily , then I pondered in that night about it and I realised more I can't remember things , I sit in lectures don't understand anything and while studying can't seat for more than 15 min and I am not sharp enough can't figure out things easily.... Am I really dumb now. ........cuz I miss that student who would do hardwork for hours and understand things easily was enjoying studying ... Now I think will I be able to survive? Do anything in life ? I am stressed cuz I am not smart enough.🥲

Hi there! Unsure if this is something I can post on here, but gonna give it a shot.

Hi, I'm currently in Grade 11 and an upcoming UPCAT taker. I just want to ask if Molecular Biology & Biotechnology is a great field. I wasn’t really planning on taking it, but since I’m not sure what degree I should pursue, my biology teacher told us that if I want to be rich or successful, I should consider it. I don't know if that’s true, but as we progress through our General Biology 2 topics, especially genetic engineering, I’m actually starting to consider it, I find genetic engineering very interesting.

I wanted to know if taking this course at UP, or in general, is the best career choice here in the Philippines.

Hi all! So I have a project from my software design class that asks me to build something that has 50 daily active users. I want to actually build something useful instead of having my friends pose as active users. So I'm here to understand what are the pain points you encounter while studying (so maybe i can figure out a personalized solution and help you!). Thank you in advance for telling me!!

Hi all, I'm a senior in Computer Science and I had an idea for a passion project website / app I would like to build. I'm just trying to gauge interest so I don't spend time building something no-one uses.

My idea was to basically have something super similar to Duolingo, but for high school and college classes. The way it would work is users (students) would put in their class syllabus / notes / lecture slides, possibly textbooks, and the tool would spit out a Duolingo course for that specific subject. What I mean by that is the course would be divided up into 3-4 sections (each section = 1 major test for the class) that each have a level map with 8-12ish levels (lectures) similar to how the popular language learning tool Duolingo is organized.

Each time you click on a level, you go through a handful of different "mini-games" to learn your class content. These "mini-games" would be things like long-answer, short-answer, multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, matching, etc... basically different types of question formats. I want these "mini-games" to also have domain specific things like coding terminals for programming related classes, math visualizations for math related classes, cell diagrams for biology and a bunch of other stuff like that for different majors.

Much like Duolingo, it would also have lots of heavily gamified elements as well. I want it to have (friendly) competition with your friends so you'll be more held accountable for studying, something like leaderboards basically, and I also want it to have progress tracking for each subject as well (like if multiple subjects are covered in a single lecture), and I want the tool to be enjoyable to use in general.

Also I made this short survey just because I love to see specific numbers. I would super appreciate it if you could take a second to fill it out, thanks!

Lmk your thoughts.

Hallöchen,

Ich habe mich gefragt, ob ich ich zum Ende des Master, als quasi dann, wenn ich nur noch die Masterarbeit habe, meinen Job kündigen kann und dann das halbe Jahr oder länger ALG 1 beantragen kann. Ich arbeite schon mehrere Jahre in einem Sozialversicherungspflichten Job, habe also Anspruch auf ALG 1.

Hat das jemand schon mal so gemacht? Geht das überhaupt oder nervt die Arbeitsagentur dann direkt? Wie geht man dann am besten vor?

Bin für alle Tipps und Hinweise dankbar!

Currently have a group activity with my classmates but I really don't have any suggestions since I'm not good with my suggestions. I tend to stay quiet and wait for my group mates to give their ideas. I acknowledge their presence so that they will feel notice. Was it a good idea to keep on replying on chats even without suggesting anything?

I have been looking up countries to study masters and i have come up with a few one of them was Germany but when i looked a little bit more into it, i realised you beed to know C1 level german for that. Similarly, i want to know about the other countries too, from someone who is experienced.

Can anyone bless me w a student beans discount code plz :(

Hi everyone! I’m working on an AI-powered learning tool designed to help students like you study more effectively, stay focused, and achieve your goals. My goal is use AI to not help you cheat, but use it as a literal cheat code for you to do better. But I need your input to make it truly amazing!

Here’s what I’m thinking so far:

• Direct Course integration: Upload your course material directly including pre existing lectures, notes, syllabuses.
• Personalized study plans tailored to your courses and goals. Its your friend that teaches you on your learning habits and preferences. Asks questions and tries to analyze and create your own learning process. It also has automated schedule of your exams, assignments and other due dates with constant reminders like (90 days till exam 1 or something like a countdown)
• Focus and productivity tools (e.g., Pomodoro timer, distraction blocker).
• Career guidance and connections to research, jobs, and volunteering opportunities.
• Mental health support (e.g., guided meditations, mood tracking).
• Gamifying the experience: (think of it like solo leveling, it gives you missions and you must maintain your streak and you are building a better you so you can have the best education experience, also in a way you can compete with other students and compare your progression.

But I want to hear from YOU:

1. What are your biggest challenges when it comes to studying and staying focused?
2. What features would you want in your dream AI learning tool?
3. Are there any existing tools you love or hate? Why?
4. Would you use a tool that combines study help, career guidance, and mental health support?
5. If you were to imagine a video game for studying, what should it have?
6. Do you have any further suggestions?

Your feedback will help me build something that truly meets your needs. I want to develop this step by step and hopefully create something for you guys to use. Posting this in various subreddits to get more input. Thanks in advance for your help—I really appreciate it!

Hello, I get embarrassed to admit this but I am 21 and I dropped out of highschool when I was 16. Everything was going pretty well but I decided wanted to better myself and get my diploma. I will be able to re-enroll in my homeschooling program and graduate, but my main fear is since I have nobody to really go through all of this with I'm nervous I will start slacking again. Do you guys have any tips on how to stay motivated to study or how to meet people online to study with?????

Please can anyone suggest a good a reliable AI to get me notes from recorded teams vids/ YouTube vids

I am currently a Grade 12 TVL HE student, And for some background, you could say I'm that person thats a master of many like: I could draw (anime/comic/manhwa style), collage, bake pastries/ breads, create clay figures, journalist editorial cartoons, edit videos like its for an advert, etc.

But mostly ever since I was a child, I was interested in both art and baking/culinary arts. I would draw on my mom's laptop, i would watch Rosanna Pansino or Gordon Ramsay videos and collect LOADS of pastry books from book sale that costs less than 20 pesos.

I have a passion for art, anything artsy like collages, advertising layouts..I could do it but I always dodged it. Knowing it isn't really in demand in my country + always gets slandered by my relatives 😮‍💨...

A few months ago I already set my mind on taking MMA Animation/ Game Dev next year but recently, Iproposed to an only drinks and waffles cafe to be a positive addition to their workplace and planning on presenting a menu on the pastries and breads i could do. And after thinking for a while while I'm finishing my resume I thought "I need to practice then?" And thoughts came running to my head

As much as I want to improve, I'm actually scared of the fresh course, the critisms and teach us things that won't actually improve our works art (summary; tuition going down the drain) 😭 and the burn out I'll have, I dont really want to lose this talent 😭 + AI now evolving so being under MMa might not be the best choice anymore as the people who are commissioning them/ needing them are slimming.

Compared to art, food is always needed for people's lives. Being a culinary art student might be the best choice and I won't have to take 2 extra classes because of the bridging of courses. (I'm not rich but money isn't really a problem here since I'm under a discount and might try for a scholarship.)

If it isnt a bother, i need yall advice on this please I'm really conflicted I don't know who to talk this about .

I’m in the UK and potentially looking into creative media course to learn from, as I want to be a journalist or something in design/art, but my main fear is filmography and if I’ll have to do things like acting? My media studies course for my GCSE didn’t have that, but will this be different? The course info for the college I’m looking at is very vague

I m from indore nd wants a writer to write in hindi for my assignmets iff anyone have any connections please share immediately

When writing a novel title in an academic essay, make sure you follow the proper formatting guidelines. Novel titles should be italicized (e.g., To Kill a Mockingbird). If italics aren't available, use quotation marks instead (e.g., “To Kill a Mockingbird”). This ensures clarity and professionalism in your writing. Always introduce the title within the context of your essay, explaining its relevance to your argument or analysis.

A well-formatted title shows attention to detail and enhances the overall quality of your essay.

Hi everyone,

I will be doing an internship in the U.S. from March 3 to September 5, 2025, and I have a question regarding my current working student position in Germany.

My German employment contract for the working student position will be placed on unpaid leave from March 1 to September 30, 2025. This means that my employment will be on hold during this period—I will receive no salary and will not be required to work.

J-1 Visa Regulations I Found:

1. J-1 Visa Conditions:

“Participants may not under any circumstance hold a second job outside of their activity at the host company listed on their DS-2019. Failure to comply will result in the Participant’s immediate withdrawal from the J-1 Program.”

→ No second employment allowed during the J-1 program.

2. DS-7002 (Training Plan):

“I understand that my internship will take place only at the organization listed on this T/IPP, and that working at another organization while on the Exchange Visitor Program is prohibited.”

→ Employment at another company during the program is prohibited.

3. Clause in My German Employment Contract (Unpaid Leave):

“During unpaid leave, the employment relationship is suspended, meaning the employee is not required to work, and the employer is not required to pay any salary.”

→ I am not actively employed and do not receive any salary.

My Question:

If my working student position in Germany is officially placed on unpaid leave and I do not receive any salary or perform any work, could this still be considered a conflict with J-1 regulations because I technically have a paused contract with another company? Or am I on the safe side since I am not actually engaged in a second job?

I just want to make sure there won’t be any issues with my visa. I would really appreciate insights from anyone familiar with this situation.

Thanks in advance! 😊

I really need the past paper for Chemistry paper 2 Higher (triple tier) from June 2024. Would really appreciate if any of you could send me a pdf or screenshots!!!!
