I had made the post and you had told me to contact the inbuilt support/email.
I contacted the inbuilt support chat and that was of no use. Upon contacting the support via email, their response was there is no way to change it and that outlier decides it

What am i supposed to do now?

Hey there,

Thing is earlier during my freshman year and before, i wasnt regular to studying. Didnt really do homework regularly, everything was last minute, projects etc

The thing is since the syllabus was small, i paid attention to class, and was able to focus pretty well, i still scored pretty well in all theory subjects. Maths did suffer because that required practice, and i made silly mistakes, and i just read maths (didnt practice) but i still got pretty good marks, and inside my head i was satistfied. The kids who studied regularly got 90+ in theory subjects and 80+ in maths, and if i was able to match 90% of their performance, or beat them with one nights study, i was like im way more efficient and was satisfied

Then came covid lockdown and everything shifted online. I didnt attend classes at all, i just opened yt and listenening to songs in Sophomore, junior high got over in gaming. All this was online, so i didnt pay any attention to class, just cheated through exams. Senior year i was just messaging friends etc via dc and flunked the finals. I didnt study througout, i would just sit pretending to study with something open, or timepass but just coudnt bring my self to study what so ever

Then i came into my university where the same cycle is repeating. Due to this i have many courses where i have failed the finals because i didnt study.

The courses generally have 40 hours recommeded for studying, internals are for 1.5 hours and the finals are for 3 hours. I have probably studied 30 mins-1 hour for internals, and less than 2 hours for finals

So yes, i am writing for a longer duration in an exam that ive studied for. Theory subjects i still am able to cope up, but my maths is absolutely fked because of lack of studying and practice.

Infact i have an exam in less than 4 hours that i havent started yet but here i am making this reddit post.

I just dont even start, i just go to different llms like chatgpt, claude, dump notes and ask it to teach me (which sometimes it teaches well but sometimes its just better to just study through the notes or watch yt videos) i dont even start tbh. I just use llms to create a plan, and then procrastinate. Now that i dont have the original amount of time, again go to llm for a new plan with the shortened duration, repeat cycle

I just go in the anxiety avoidance loop and dont even start studying. In my mind im like, i havent ever regularly studied in my life, since past few years i havent studied, so i just mentally give up

I even skipped exams because i knew id fail in them

I know the answer is to just simply start studying but idk i just cant get myself to

Any tips or suggestions would be really welcomed as i cant waste my parents money that theyve put on education, and wont be allowed into my fourth year if i dont clear courses

Right now even after like 5 minutes of trying to study my focus starts to daze out. Cant evne study 30 mins in a single shot reliably

Thank you
