writes: I have a friend. We study at the same school. Before she does the Entrance Examination, she hopes to study in the faculty of Dentistry. She's concentrate on her books. She reads the books and do the exercise too much. She spends her time to read read and read. After we do the Entrance Examination, she told me her scores is not enough. It means she can't study in the faculty that she hopes. I still encourage her. Now she studies in the faculty of Pharmacy. It makes her unhappy. She told me she's alright, but I think she was sad. I want to help her feel better. What should I do? Reply to this Question

 It seems your friend works extremely hard but doesn't always achieve what she wants.
I think she needs to ease the pressure on herself a bit and have some fun.
How about suggesting that you both join a club together? Have a night out together so that she is away from her studies. She may open out a bit then.
Don't pressurise her into telling you how she feels. When she needs to, she will.
Just reassure her that you are there for her and continue what you are doing now. You sound like a very good friend.

Theres not much you can do, support your friend in her studies, listen to her problems and offer solutions.
