Well Actually I only flunked one of my two midterms but I know I flunked my second midterm because I did not finish on time. I'm very disheartening that I failed my two midterms because I know how to calculate the solar costant when blackbody radiation is involved and I know how to find the wavelength of a hydrogen atom when only given its initial state and ground state, Or rI know when to apply the normalization wave function when calculating the probably of what position a electron may be.
most of the material that would be covered on the test at least 3-5 hours a night. I don't want to dropped physics because I loved the subject so much and really cannot about having any other major. Its not just my physics exams I failed, the highhest grade I've gotten on a midterm this semester has been an 83 and that grade was curved. I spent like all night in the libraries studying for these classes and I get soo frustrated that I want to kick some random stranger's butt when I do poorly on an exam. I have no trouble understanding the material(with the exception of abstract algebra, where I walk into professors office everyday to get help with my homework). IF it were not for these exams and finishing the exam on time, I probably would perform decent on the course. I talk to my physics advisor and he says I think I have a learning disability. I really don't know what to think. I'm just caring less and less about getting a good grade on the exam because everytime I study twice as much for an exam when I fail the first exam , my midterm grade for the second exam is even lower than the midterm exam for the first.
I talked to some friends , and they think I may have asperger syndrome, because I display soo many of the symptoms for asperger syndrome. I'm going to have a psychologist evaluate me for asperger syndrome.
While I'm being evaluate , is there any advice people would like to share to help me get through my trials and tribulations or share some similar experiences it will ease my pain and eliminate some of my frustrations.. I cannot change majors is not an option because physics is my passion and can imagine majoring in any other subject.
