<p>ok this is the one thing you need to learn. Always try your hardest without going overboard. If you want to waste your time making val and still probably fail, go right ahead. I'm a freshmen taking the most rigorious courses with a 3.73 GPA and I learned to not stress. I would have a higher GPA if I didn't miss an equivalent 7 days of school2nd quarter. Ok this is not supposed to be a rant. I'm just telling you that sometimes things are more important. Academics will fade away but memories with friends and family won't. I saw enjoy the time you have and if you need to, lower your course load.</p>
