I am a a senior student in the USA in Arkansas i have been here for 4 months my english is not good , i want to ask something and i hope you can help me when i first came to usa my english was really bad then I tried to improve it so I took a lot of classes and it was hard to me. The problem is that I want to be a pharmacist so I tried to study Ap chemistry but I was late because I missed two weeks I was crying every day because everything was too much to me especially that I couldn't drop the other classes and then decided to drop Ap chemistry class because I already have chemistry credits but I really wanted studying Ap chemistry and I feel that my dream of becoming a pharmacist is over, and I felt that I gave up even though I worked hard to become What I am now , but I still think that Ap chemistry is more important than I studied before. Sometimes I think I'm stupid why I did i drop chemistry class but when I remember I was really tired and got sick because of it, I say I had to do it. Now I am writing while I cry Everyone says that I am smart because all my grades are A, but I don’t know why I don’t feel as they think I feel I am not smart Why do they say that? Sometimes I think I must have my own tutor but because of Covid everything is difficult. I am ready to do anything to study Ap chemistry I just want help. I asked about the turors before but no one gave me a clear answer. So I just want you to tell me what I'm supposed to do? How do I start? Can I study Ap chemistry in summer ? is everything gonna be okay ? I really need help I feel like I am lost and I don't know anything especially my family is not with me but I try though everything is hard . I didn't mention that the credits required for graduation are 24 credits and I have 27 credits . But I still wanted to study AP chemistry because I'm not good enough in it and to make everything easier in college. I feel really sad I can't even sleep because of overthinking. sorry for my english
