Question
Well, I was a great student in high school, but I've found that I'm really struggling with my college classes. I feel rather underprepared and that maybe I don't really belong here.

How did you deal with it?

soon I realized that It's not high school anymore, It needs more effort and specially more time to comprehend the lessons You can't just pass the exams by studying a day before the exam
