I'm already a student in a university this year. The biggest problem is I can't understand too many subjects I have learnt. I'm a stupid student in the best university in my country. It's make me feel terrible. I'm a lazy person. The reason why I could entrance to the university was I wanted my parents and people aroud me proud of me, The feeling pressured me. But now I don't know what I learn for and I don't have a goal in my life so that make all problems happen.

The first year at a university is always hard. You are bound to meet new people that can make you feel like you aren't smart enough. That is because, unlike high school, you are now grouped with people within your range of intelligence.

Continuing on through college is entirely your choice and transfering to a school that has a better environment for you is always an option. College should be about defining yourself, working hard, and most of all having fun! Don't let the people that you know control you. This is your life now, you need to work it out to be something that makes YOU happy and that YOU are proud of.

You need to take some time to yourself and figure out what it is you want out of life. What makes you happy? Then look at career paths that will lead you to your happiness. If college is needed for that career then start looking at colleges that suit you. It is never to late to transfer if this university makes you that uncomfortable.

One last word of advice. I know what it is like to be lazy, and that feeling only increases when you are depressed and there is alot on your mind. Create a good environment for yourself and keep your mind focused on where you are headed in your life. That should be your rock of motivation. Good friends who have great work ethics are good motivators as well. Think all these things over, remember they can always be changed, and take the first step of your new life.

If you dont have a goal, you need to make one, fast! if it doesnt include being at university then leave. your family may be dissapointed, but its your life and you have to make yourself happy first.

If you would like to continue uni but feel that you are having trouble with the subjects, talk to your tutor, he/she may be able to help.
