I’m not learning anything in university and I feel like money is just burning away
I’ve been in university for a few months now and I can say I haven’t learned a thing I wouldn’t be able to just look up on YouTube. The only thing I’ve learned so far has been how to use adobe programs, but the professor for that class is so poor at teaching I have to reteach myself when I get back to my apartment using the internet.
Anyways, with the sheer course load, I haven’t learned a thing. I have so many assignments I feel like I don’t have any time to actually sit with the topics covered in class, because I have 5 things due the next day. I find I just keep referring back to my notes on any concept in an assignment. I don’t have any time to learn anything I’m just reprinting what my professors say. I don’t understand the concepts, I can’t remember them or what they mean, I literally have not learned a thing. And the sad thing is? This is getting me good grades. Why am I being rewarded to not learn? I feel like all the money I’m spending on post secondary is just burning away. That this was a waste of time.
