I am a 2nd year student at an MD school in the US. My school has an organ systems based curriculum. We are 4 weeks into our Neuroanatomy block and I am failing. We have had 3 exams so far, 1 of which is an anatomy practical. I haven't passed any of these. I'm terrified of failing a course and have no idea what to do.
I had trouble with the very first class of medical school which was a Biochemistry course and did ok after that. I am toward the bottom of the class, but never to the point where I was failing.
There is so much material that I have a hard time even getting through it all. Before exams, I have only had the chance to look at each lecture one time. Not even work with the material, just read the powerpoints.
I feel very upset about how my grades have been and am worried that I will fail the course, and then have to repeat the year. We have had 20% of our grade in so far and I'm at about a 60% average for that. Please help...I feel so sad about this.
