    reasons why
    Confused
    I think I am failing college,but still not sure.
    I am a college student in the uk, and I have finished the hnd course during the last 10 months but the problem is I still have ork for college that I haven't submitted yet,they told me that I need to get it done anyway, I said I will but till now I haven't done anything,I don't know if college wa the right choice for me,I don't know f not. I started to be careles about 2 years ago when I finished my high school and got very high grades, I started to be too rpoud of myself and think that I can do anything with no troubles,starting from this point my whole life changed.
    In the first and the second semester of college I was given work to submit at the end of each semester,I said to myelf I can do it anytime I want, but actually I couldn't finish.
    I don't know if I still have time to finish and go uni next year,or I won't be able to do it.

    All I need from you is some advise of what I can do now,n how would I know if I college and uni are the right choice for me. I would appreciate your concernt.pre thanks to you.

    You have the advantage of realizing that you got careless and let your work slide... and now you are paying the price for it. It would be a shame not to get all of the credit you should after the HND work you have done so far. Have you just the one year left before you have the diploma?
    You would at least have that and could go onto uni later if you decided to, but if you don't complete the work you need to now, it would be all for naught.
    Many people don't know right away if uni is the right choice, or even what to study once they do decide to go. You can come back to it, but it does often get harder once you have been away for awhile... especially if your life gets filled with other responsibilities.

    My advise?. make the commitment and get it done now. See someone at the school and discuss what action you can take to get back on track and at least finish the HND. You may find that once you get caught up and going again it is more enjoyable and you might decide to continue at uni. Sometimes, when it seems like you have so much work ahead of you, it can be overwhelming and tempting to just give up on it. You will likely regret it later as the time is going to pass by anyway, might as well have your education taken care of at that same time. Good luck with whatever you decide to do!
