I somehow did very well in school until about Grade 10 – despite never ever having my homework completed, and my assignments constantly being handed in late. Parental pressure was a big factor; it was expected that I do well – though it probably took me three times longer to do projects than it took everyone else. Don’t even ask about grades 11 or 12, however – my home structure broke down, and I went from honor roll student to barely graduating.
Now I am 32, and been working on one degree for probably about 8 years lol, and still a year to go. I still do well in courses when I am interested, but I really struggle with the self-direction required.. and as for the “boring” classes, omg..
