I’m a senior who’s 21 years old. I will be 22 in July. I today found out I have to retake two college classes. And it sucks because I see on social media where some of my classmates that I graduated with in high school graduated college this spring. They got their bachelors and are moving on. I feel left behind because now I have to wait until the fall. I just hate the thought of being the last person to do something. It’s the worst feeling.  I have to wait 7 months. I have never been good in school! I have always struggled. But it seems so easy for others. I hate the feeling.

    Your old classmates who flunked during the last two years probably didn’t post about it on social media. It’s not reflective of reality, just all curation.

    Trust me, you’re doing fine. My bachelor took five years to finish, and plenty of people I’ve talked to have had similar situations.
