In nursing I use these a lot this semester cause I know how you feel. Good thing is though if you believe that you are NOT a failure, it can really help you succeed. I was so surprised once I got these quotes from my professor and believed that I wasn't my grades skyrocket and I started passing my exams. They are not instant fixes, but you sound very bright to me. Don't get down on your self about this, its gonna be okay. Its only first semester, but I think your in high school and not to sure how that works there but you might still have a chance to bring your grades up. I got my F to a B in 3 weeks if that tells ya how down I was on myself. If you need anything let me know. Many hugs to you if okay, hang in there

Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome. ~Booker T. Washington
