Help moving forward
I know it's a bit late for questions like these, but I ended up getting an RTW letter and I just really don't know what to do or how to proceed. It's like everything I ever worked for in highschool has gone to trash. I managed to get into an honours Neuro program and completely flunked it because of my procrastinating and doing absolutely trash on my labs. I failed almost 6/10 courses I took, and I was just too blinded to see what was going on. I was unprepared and had the most egregious study method and all that balanced with work mad eme lose sight of my true goals and now I just don't know what to do. After I got my letter a couple weeks ago, I just went completely numb and tried to not think about it for awhile because I was scared. I was scared about my friends and family knowing what a failure I was. I just need help going forward.
My goal has always been to be in the healthcare field and I honestly felt that my program was leading to nowhere. I feel like if I ever get the chance again, I'd maybe want to apply to a different program like Nursing or maybe Dentistry, but I dont know if that's just wishful thinking or too farfetched. I just don't want to go back to Neuro. Basically the only 2 options I got were to Requalify or Discontinue, but is it possible to maybe apply to a different faculty that isn't Science? Or is it just completely over?
Sorry for the sob story, I know it isn't really ideal but I just really want to know if there's anyone else who's been in the same boat as me and has advice on what to do now.
