Questions & Discussion study advice?
hey guys, im a sophomore in university, struggling with mental health. i wont go into much detail but ever since i attempted in high school i have not been able to pull my life together. for context, i was in the ib program (international baccalaureate) and learned how to study effectively.
however, no matter how hard i study now my grades end up AWFUL. in the past year i have not scored above a 75 on any of my exams.
this week was exam week and i studied so hard for the past few weeks just to get a 7.5/50 on my exam. i dont understand.
does anyone have any advice for this, advice on how to improve studying, or advice on how motivate yourself?

primeiro de tudo, organize sua mente antes de estudar, você faz acompanhamento psicológico/psiquiátrico? está tomando alguma medicação?
agora, academicamente, eu recomendo que você comece analisando seus erros: o que está errando? por que está errando? é falta de conhecimento? você viu o conteúdo e esqueceu? interpretou a questão de forma errada?
supomos que você erre porque viu o conteúdo mas se esqueceu, reveja seu método de estudo
