what 2 do IF u r failing to understand ur chemistry???

I suspect I don't have to tell you this: not everyone who takes chemistry passes it. If you're taking a chemistry course and it feels like a sliding down into a deep dark hole to your doom, you may be failing. Sometimes you can turn it around. Sometimes you can't. Either way, it's good to have a plan.
What Not to Do?
First, let's take a look at how not to handle the situation. You may view failing chemistry as the end of the world, but how you react could actually make a bad situation worse, so don't do these things: Panic /Cheat /Threaten your teacher/ Attempt to bribe your teacher/ Give up/ Do nothing...
Steps to Take:
Talk to Your teacher or any chemistry teacher/ Keep doing your homework/ keep attending ur chemistry class/ take notes/ get someone's note/ try a different text/ work problems...
Failure isn't the end of the world, which is good, since everyone experiences failure at some point or another. Even if you fail the class, if you learned how to face failure successfully then it wasn't a total waste.

  1. I do get the points there, the problem that we're having is not actually similar and I definitely can't deny about it. we faced a lot of critical homework issues lately(not lately!It's like almost everyday all day).At that case, we've been spoilt. I'm freakin' tired after the schooling session and my mind just thinking about going to bed. Obviously that makes me totally forgot about the homework and didn't even have time to do it. I get sleepy all the time even during completing the homework. The funny about getting sleepy is that we don't even know what are the homeworks that we've done and what we already learnt form it after the next day. After a long sleep at home,the schooling day begins as usual and still.....TIRED AND SLEEPY during the class.

  6. wow.. when all of u faces these prob, have u ever wondered why? Don't blame others.. think.. millions of students have graduated science stream in the past.. y u can't? sleepy in class, that's definately because u lack good quality sleep!! train ur self to sleep 7hrs a day.. quality sleeping time is 10pm-4am... can't keep track of homework? well, keep a note book to write all ur homeworks in it.. so once done, tick it off... I use to have a note book myself when i was a student back then. some students change when they grow older.. so afiq's copying isn't shocking.. hopefully by FEB u'll will get hold of urself back.. haha.. best wishes.. (The most difficult thing to do is CHANGE! but u hav to change ur learning style, activities & priorities as u are now nearing aduldhood)
    Cheers!!!!
