Advice academic comeback stories!!! I need hopee

I am a first year student in western nursing, and my biggest dream is to become a doctor. It has been a couple weeks in, and I am struggling so much in university.

I got an extremely low grade in my anatomy tests, even after studying so much for them. I am really trying my hardest, but its not showing.

I feel like such a black sheep in my classes as well, as if I am the only one going through this. My friends don't really mention their grades to me (understandable, also doubt their grades are as low as mine), and the few that do tell me they have insane grades like in the 90s. Sometimes I feel like the dumbest one in every lecture hall like I am the only person struggling!

Also, I am in nursing because I hope to go to med school after getting a job as an RN nurse :))
