I am currently a sophomore at UT Austin, i transferred from UTSA so i could go to my dream school. I did well my first year of college, however, my second semester it all went downhill. The transfer from UTSA to UT was so different and the curriculum was much harder. I made D’s my first semester and went on academic probation and was able to get my GPA back up, however i’m starting to doubt whether i should transfer. I’m planning to switch my major so that i am not doing anything science or math related. Parents got involved and are pressuring me to transfer to make their lives easier by saving the embarrassment of their child from doing poorly.
I know i can do better, my mind set was not in the right mind and i understand fully what i did wrong and what i should do better. I would like to stay and improve on my mistake, but then again should i just transfer.
