So,my first semester was pretty rough, to say the least. I had a big lapse in my mental health, where I didn’t sleep, had weird eating habits, lost all my confidence and just fell into a deep depression. With a lot of help from a counselor and my parents, i got my medication adjusted and back into a manageable state of mind. I finished my finals pretty strong and at least got a decent gpa.
Because of all that happened though, I only managed to get a D in my physics class, which was the worst class to get one in since I’m a physics major. Today, I got an email from my school that I was being dropped from the next physics class I was going to take because I technically didn’t pass the prereq. I sent an email to the professor of the class to explain what happened and begged to get into the class. I plan to retake that class next fall, and plan to stick with this major because I’m passionate about it. I love the field and want more than anything to be a physicist. Do you guys think I did the right thing? Am I screwed? Am I in the wrong for trying to get into the class?
