How can I do better in school?

Question - (14 November 2009) 4 Answers - (Newest, 15 November 2009)
A female Singapore age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I am a university student and my friends and groupmates doubt my ability to do well in my studies. It is definitely not a good feeling and I am beginning to feel increasingly inferior and lost the confidence in myself after this. Exams is next week and I am drown in saddness I feel so lousy in my course. Everyone is so smart and doing so well and no matter how hard I have tried I just can't get it.

What should I do to gain back my dignity and overcome this fear that I WON'T DO WELL?

Thanks guys! I feel much better now I think the only way to survive in a tough situation is to first believe in myself in order to do well. I will just make sure that they are wrong and will email my lecturers if I am faced with any difficulties. Thanks a lot for your encouragements they meant the world to me especially when everyone in school is trying to put me down in order to make themselves feel more superior to me. Thanks a lot guys. If there are any more study methods that you guys can suggest to me it would be better thanks~

What kind of friends of yours think you're not going to do well? Have you ever heard of the virtue of positive thinking? If the people around you don't believe in you, then find new friends to surround yourself with! People who believe in you, and hope for your success!

University is a ridiculously stressful place, and sometimes it feels like you're the only one who isn't getting it/having trouble. That's not the case. I bet there are lots of people who are in the same boat as you. You just don't realize it.

To answer your question plainly, you need to believe in yourself! Then there won't be as much room for doubt. ;)
