<p>It is perfectly fine to acknowledge that you bit off more than you could chew. It sounds like your Biology advisor is giving you solid advice. It’s also possible that you need to reevaluate your curriculum and change your major. Don’t be afraid to discuss this with your Biology advisor. Professors want the students at their college to succeed, somewhere at that college. Sometimes the right place is not where one originally planned. No advisor is going to take personally a student’s desire to change majors or try something else. I have advised several struggling majors in my field to consider changing. This is not because I thought they were failures as students or people, but because they would be better off in another discipline and ultimately, I want them to be content and productive. </p>
<p>The fact that you are being so proactive and realistic about your academic plans speaks well of you. Good luck.</p>
