studying math ☹️

[u/Puzzleheaded-Egg5463]

hi everyone!!

school had always been relatively easy for me, but when it comes to math, i struggle SO much. in freshman year, i admittedly was burnt out and struggling, so i finished with a C+ in alg 2 ☹️☹️ i’m super embarassed and ashamed considering i’ve been a straight A student, but all i can do now is try to improve

so when i got to pre calc this year, i was determined to get an A. but despite studying for hours before a test, i always ended up with a c+ or b-. my overall grade is looking like a 78 rn, i’m just trying to get it to an 80 with another marking period + a final left in the class. i’m trying to get at least an A in both, so i really need to lock in, but evidently, studying for hours a day and doing practice problems isn’t helping

does anyone have any tips that help them with math?? i also have major test anxiety so if anyone has some advice for that, please help me out 😭😭 i’m genuinely so stressed and it’s so disappointing to see 3 hours of studying result in a 76% ☹️
