This is my first semester of the dental school and I'm having problem with my classes.
Currently, I'm halfway into the semester and I am very worried and disappointed with myself. I am barely keeping a C average in my anatomy class and the dental lab class, which are the most crucial classes for this semester. The class average is high 80's or even low 90's in those classes. Even with some of other "easier" classes, I'm struggling to keep a B. This never has happened to me during my undergrad years, and I feel very depressed about it. I study at least 4 hours a day, and all day and night during the weekend unless I need to go into the lab to catch up on my practical assignment. Nevertheless I am thinking that I may not be cut out for dental school. I am ashamed to talk about this with my friends. Anyone has advice for my situation? Thank you.
