Invent a time machine. Go back in time. Study.

Failing that, learn from your mistakes, and next time… well… study.

Get a good night’s sleep

1. Ask for an incomplete in the class, withdraw, or accept the failure.
2. Retake the course and get a decent grade.

Biggest thing I had to learn is when to withdraw from a class, ask the professor for more time very far in advance, and accept that you sometimes fail and need to retake it.

#include <iostream> using namespace std;

int main() { char procrastinated;

cout << "Did you procrastinate? (y/n): ";
cin >> procrastinated;

if (procrastinated == 'y' || procrastinated == 'Y') {
    cout << "You procrastinated! Remember, study earlier next time to avoid the stress!" << endl;
} else {
    cout << "Good job staying on track! Keep it up!" << endl;
}

return 0;

}

Exam on xmas eve? Your instructor is a shitter. But regardless, you’re going to fail and that’ll be earned. Work harder next time.

Keep reading Lemmy. The answers here. Somewhere.

Lots of really good advice in here so let me give you bad advice:

Given your lack of effort, it seems like you don’t really care about your CS engineering degree. Have you considered dropping out and working food service or a customer service/help desk job in a bland corporate environment?

Of course, you could always prove to yourself that you do care about finishing your degree. You most likely won’t be able to prove it this time, but do reconsider your priorities in life before starting your next attempt.

Everything is optional in life.

Take the course again, you already know some, so it should be easier to study more. Just don’t take it too many times, when I was in college there was a limit or 3-4 times you can take a course.

Do a past paper

Always write something down. At least try. You get 0 points for blanks, so that can only improve, and you may know more than you think
