This week I took my first two exams in university, and I failed them both (lemmygrad.ml)

First Discrete Math and now Linear Algebra... I hate this especially because I studied pretty hard (although in a somewhat disorganized way).

I can refuse to keep the grade and take these exams again in like three weeks, but seeing the kind of questions that were asked, I'm not sure I can master these topics in such little time. Also, in Februrary I have two other exams for which I didn't even began to prepare for, so I would have to study a lot... And to throw more fuel, I want to graduate with honors... But something now tells me that it's something that is very unlikely to happen.

I hate university, there is literally nothing I like about it.

sounds like you already have a lot of ideas on how to improve, and that's great! seems like it was a fruitful experience after all. i'm no math whiz, but whenever practicing anything i always try to remember the adage "if you practice like you play, then you'll play like you practice." try to simulate the form, content and experience of the exam as much as possible when practicing, while also changing those variables up often enough to keep yourself on your toes. that way no matter what happens or how you feel, you'll likely feel more prepared. hope that helps!
