Struggling with Physics: Helping a Second Year Major Succeed

[QUOTE="ZapperZ, post: 5953495, member: 6230"] There are a few things that I don't quite understand here. First of all, you stated that you are in your 2nd year and have GPA of 2.65. Unless you have a different set of curriculum than most students, you have taken mostly math classes, and intro general physics courses, along with electives. Is this correct? If it is, then IF you state that you have taken all those math courses and presumably, you "can do the math" (meaning you got good grades in your math courses), how did you end up with such a poor GPA? Were you getting F's in your general physics classes that somehow pulled down your average THAT much? Besides, if you are in your 2nd year, would have only done your general physics courses and have not delve too deeply into the more advanced topics too much. So did you crash that badly in all of your general physics classes? In other words, I'm trying to understand how you can end up with such a GPA this early in your undergraduate program IF your ONLY problem is with your physics classes. Zz. [/QUOTE]
