Am I just dumb or not booksmart or what lol

So I'm going to start college soon but I'm really nervous because the classes I did bad in highschool I'll be taking at the college level. It's not because I don't try trust me I try really hard but it's so difficult to remember things.

My experience was that being more motivated, once I got to college, made a huge difference. I did fine. If you work at it and avoid taking too big a course load you'll have the chance to succeed too. Why not try taking taking a limited number of classes at the start to get used to the work load. Hang in there? I know it can be intimidating, but the education can be worth the effort. Best of luck to you.
