I'm in my sophomore year of college and I have big dreams ahead of me. I'd love to go to graduate school someday, but I feel like my shattering that chance one semester at a time. Last semester I received a C in statistical methods and this semester I failed chemistry 101. I had an idea this was going to happen. I never attended class or read the book so ultimately it is my fault and I take full responsibility. I have a million questions running through my mind about how this will affect my future and what do I need to do to get back on track, but that's the least of my worries at this point. My parents always want to know how I did after each semester. Technically I don't have to tell them or show them my grades but they are helping me out in numerous ways and if i didnt show them my grades they would know something happened. I have financial aid.. How will that be affected? I feel like my dream of graduate school is already out of the picture. Grades are official on Tuesday so after they are official I will have to break down and tell my parents, suffer the consequences, learn from my mistakes, and talk to an advisor..
