Hey y'all, just got hit with the rejection letter from USC and feeling like I got hit by a ton of bricks
Anyone else out there dealing with the same heartbreak? I'm a 21-year-old history major here in California, took a gap year before starting college and now aiming to get into med school - fingers crossed! When I'm not buried in textbooks, you can catch me on the field playing intramural sports to blow off some steam
Right now, though, I'm struggling with these upper division history courses at UC. Historical Methods, World History, Primary Source Analysis...it's all getting a bit overwhelming. I feel like I'm swimming in research papers and drowning in source evaluation and historical argumentation
Any tips on how to navigate these rough waters? Dealing with homesickness on top of all this academic stress isn't making things easier. Being far from home can really take a toll on your mental game
So my fellow Cali college students, how do you manage your time effectively with all these complex assignments? How do you tackle source evaluation and historical argumentation without losing your mind? "The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you." - B.B. King Share your wisdom with this struggling history major!
