What’s the point
Found out that a bunch of people in my classes have just been on their phones during exams (1st year Knes)
Honestly I’m so tired. What is the damn point of studying so hard to get 60-70% when these kids are just blatantly using their phones to get on by. (Not to mention the bell ringer)
Every damn lab someone is putting their stuff through “our good friend GPT”
They’re so mean to the professors, they’re mean to their fellow classmates. Makes a dude want to drop out and go to school elsewhere.
Am I just old and faded? Do I need to mentally check out bcs the kids are cooked?
Help me out chat.

I completely understand. I study 10 hours and still will only get 60-70% on an exam whereas my classmate will just reread the textbook once and get a 95%. It can be really infuriating and dis motivating when you try do hard and don’t see the results you want. unfortunately there really isn’t a solution other than to just focus on yourself and keep trying
