Is anyone not as interested in college?

Post Reply New Topic

I loved researching serial killers and wrote about Bundy and Dahmer for a research paper. and I also got A's in Criminology and Intro. to Criminal Justice but am not doing as well in my actual Bachelor for Criminal Justice. I feel my teachers grade very hard and am struggling to have C's!! !! ! My first Bachelor semester I got a B,B-,C and D+! (you need a C to pass the class) so first semester starting I got a D+ and FAILED A COURSE!! !! ! Grades for now the Spring aren't to high either I'll be lucky to pass with a C in 2 classes while another is sitting at an A at least but one of the bad ones is Criminology based but the content on the test is so dense it's confusing also the 2nd failing course for the Spring is the SAME PROFESSOR from the Fall that I failed with a D+ She grades HARD!

Also I'm not loving Criminal Justice as much as I once did. I have no idea why. Can anyone else relate??

Thanks

I wonder why I go to university sometimes.

Criminal justice in college is weird. It's not what you think it would be.

Usually in Bachelor 1st and 2nd years you take a wide range of electives, not only for a balanced education, but because you never know if you might find something else, a brand new subject, which you might end up becoming more interested in.. Perhaps you are not as interested in the entire Criminology field as you previously thought.. If there are other subjects, which might possibly interest you, try exploring those.. Or you might even get a pleasant surprise about a subject you never thought about previously.. The undergraduate level is a chance to get a broad education, taste various new subjects, try new ideas, and get a good general foundational education.. The Bachelor Degree is not a professional degree, in the sense of Law or Medicine, but a general education one.. By the 3rd and 4th year, you can focus a bit more in some areas of your Bachelor Degree, but it is not to the same intensity as a Graduate Degree. If you want to be more focussed intensely, you should continue on to take a Master and then PHD course.
