I don't know either of u but u seem to be trying to read ur therapist's mind. Don't assume what s/he thinks about it. What do u have to lose from that person's opinion? Your idea of waiting to say anything due to fear of not passing sounds like a defeatist position to me. I say step up, study, put in the work, talk about challenges, learn and grow. There's nothing to it but to do it imo. Yes it is hard work and be a LOT of schooling and expense but start out "as if" then make it happen. That is what I have always done. Good luck to u and I hope u get what u want out of your schooling no matter how far u go.
