Example- My brother is 19, he is a year and a half older. He spent his public school days slacking off, sleeping in class and never doing homework. He always did excellent on tests though, including the SAT. Now he just finished his first year at college and made the deans list and got all A's. He takes classes such as advanced physics and calculus. He wants to be an engineer. I spent my publics schools days working my *** off for B's and the occassional A. Now here I am the end of my senior year and incredibly fustrated. I am terrible in math and science courses. I have been accepted into a good college but I don't even know what to do there. There are certain things I want to be but I don't know if I can handel those jobs. I tried so hard to comprehend certain concepts in chemisry and algebra but I could never get them. Why is my brother able to accomplish so much when I struggle to be "average"? Why are some people just smart while others are not?
