Why did you drop out of college?
>>34602660i didnt but i should have. i ended up doing 7 years and coming out of it with a degree i dont want and cant use.i shouldve dropped out as soon as i realized i didnt know what the fuck i wanted to do. then gone back later on when i figured it out. i dont think they should act like college is an expectated immediate next step for high school kids. if you dont know what you want to do, it's much better to take a year or two to figure it out than it is to rush into college because you're "supposed to".
>>34602660Ran out of art classes I was interested in taking at community college, plus no more money.

>>346029636 years in, hoping, praying that I finally graduate … your post resonates with me.In hindsight all these years at university have only taught me that I should have made a conscious choice over what to do with my future or at least over what to studyI mean at least I can tell myself many jobs require a degree even when it's unrelated
I unexpectedly failed CSC480 my last semester but Microsoft had already recruited me in the Fall and I couldn't be in Arizona to retake the class and in Washington at the same time so I just never finished my degree
what is everyone here studying?
>>34602660alienation
>>34602660It was mind-numbingly boringwhich is crazy, because I was able to get a bachelor's no issue, but my god I just couldn't muster the willpower to do a single class for my master's class. Probably doesn't help that it's basically just a repeat of everything i did in my bachelor's without any added depth or elaboration. I think I just have perma-senioritis or something.
Dropped from university bc of too much stress of studying for so many classes, most of which were irrelevant to the degree i wanted. was only taking those classes because they were necessary for any degree at all.Decided to try out community College instead and I'm really glad I did. I take 1 class at a time and it's only stuff I'm interested in learning about. I dont have a degree. Instead, I got a cert, which helped me get a nice job.
>32>laid off 9 months ago from shitty 25/hr factory job>could get another one almost anytime (in fact, have interview for one next week that I might not even go to)>studied calculus enough to pass the CLEP exam for it>took Calc II and Linear Algebra>stuggled but aced both courses (community college though)>have a bunch of credits from 10+ years ago plus more CLEP exams I'm using to skip humanities courses >so I can finish my mathematics associates degree by the end of the year>for less than 7 grandIs there any fucking point to this? Or should I just give up? I probably won't be able to even afford to get a bachelor's at this point.
Tuition alone was 10k a year and I wanted to go to school for something else. I decided to drop out to avoid an extra 20k+ of debt.
>>34602660I felt absolutely no passion for it, and I only went as far as I did in mine because I was emotionally pressed to, until I couldn't anymore.
>>34603088This really. I wasnt the class clown but I never really cared about being a C student so fast forward and I dropped out cause I simply didn't give a shit enough to continue. In hindsight I should of due to the job market but no use crying about the past.
havent dropped out but am considering it. reason being none of the shit im studying is actually stuff i care about. it makes me think this degree is not for me. plus ive been in college too long already. i dont really see the point of being here anymore. i probably wont tho. ill just kill my soul for the next 1.5 years and probably find a job in a completely different field that has nothing to do with my degree.
Flunked out. I only went because that is what I was told my whole life to do. I went back to community college, but only did a year. It was a blast. I work in manufacturing now. I think I want to go back so I can fill my days.
because I didn't want to go to college but my parents screeched and insisted for me to go, so after a few exams I predictably flunked out and those retards are now indebted (they insisted on paying all the expenses) for no reason at all while I'm now a tradie, I refuse categorically to give refund them a single dollar of those expenses because fuck them, that's what you get when you force peoplehere's a valuable lesson kids: don't do things you don't want to do
I couldn`t put myself to finish my final thesis even with the help a professor and other. I felt block, I could write a single line.
>>34602660>Why did you drop out of college?I didn't have my license and still don't. Tbf I majored in the wrong major looking back. Never listen to a college counselor. I fucked up.
>>34602660>only losers use this board>therefore OP can expect losers to look at this thread>therefore people who dropped out of college are losers :(
I dropped out in the first semester after HS because my rugby team was hazing me, my professors were not good, the faculty would not shut up about racial guilt, I felt like I did not fit in,and I wanted to kill myself. After I dropped out I worked as a farm laborer and a janitor, both jobs were so fucking awful I decided to go back to school for computers. After busting my ass off for 5 years, going through some alcoholism and more suicidal BS I was able to get a bachelors in Computer Information Systems. Now I make 43k a year working helpdesk, lol. Idk what it is about school that made me wanna kill myself, I felt the same way in HS. I worried so much about grades it made me perform worse and it caused me to make no friends, worrying got me nowhere lmao. I feel much better now albeit I do feel like a loser compared to other people my age.
