Don't be afraid to ask for help. At some point it doesn't matter how bright or intelligent you are people will need others to move forward. If you need to see your lecturer every few weeks then that's ok. If people have the nerve to think less of you just think **** em.

Just do what you can and don't feel stupid if you have to ask questions. Also take two steps forward one step back. After you cover a particular topic ask yourself "What does this really mean?" "Why am I learning this?" "What does this imply?" The more questions the better because by doing this you are engaging in stretching your mind.
