I tried uni just before the pandemic started and was doing fairly well at it.
Pandemic started and everything went 100% virtual and I ran into the same problems as you did.
Not only do I just naturally do better at f2f and hands-on learning, it鈥檚 the matter of accountability to show up to the classes on campus. Much easier to show up for it when you actually have to get moving.
I found I鈥檇 rather fuck around on Fusion (CADD program) or find cool stuff to print on my 3D printer than to open up a zoom lecture to something so utterly lacking in proper engagement.
One thing I wonder which might help: maybe there are syllabuses from these classes that tell you what topics are covered for homework and exams? If so, would maybe YouTube videos or articles in the internet be able to get you the information you need to be successful? I found that this helped for me, though ultimately trying to juggle a job, 4 horrible online classes, and raising a child on my own it was just way too much and I had to quit. Probably would have quit even if it was just the classes tbh, I have some serious trouble staying organized for one online class, let alone 4 馃槀 Hopefully the idea is one you find helpful, sorry I can鈥檛 offer much more in the moment.

Is this a private school or public?
