Pick a degree that can actually get you a job that pays a salary and is more than minimum wage or what Burger King pays. No need to go to school and go into debt if you are going to graduate and get a job you only need a high school education to get. As much as you hate it, you should probably talk to the professor and seek out his/her help if have a question so they know your name and that they are interested. Another option is to get a good study group and join major specific organizations with students that are older than you and can help you out on understanding coursework. Research your professor and if there are multiple options for the same course dont pick the difficult asshole professor. Do your best. Have fun, but not too much fun. Be safe.
