Soo I screwed up this year. By epic proportions. And I suspect a total lack of direction is to blame. This is the situation:
I'm in first year. I finished year 12 last year and got into science/arts which was my first preference because I didn't know what I wanted to do. *unfortunately* that lack of purpose turned into a lack of motivation and I dun screwed up. Was having some issues of the mental health variety and found myself failing 3/4 of my arts units, and am on the brink of failing the fourth depending on how I go in the exam :/ So basically I failed all my arts units in my first year, which is the reason why I want to internally transfer to science. My science units are going OK but i highly doubt they'll let me transfer considering all these fails.. as for the ATAR requirement, I got a 94 (req. 85) and it was again my science subjects that saved me during VCE, two of which were mid/high 40s.
I feel dumb mentioning the next bit because it seems so so far fetched, but I was thinking of transferring to science, because I want to apply for med. Not having a goal was a big part of my problem, and I know I can work hard now that I have one. If I can't transfer to science this year, I'll try and transfer mid sem next year. But I guess my questions are:
First of all is there even any hope to transfer into science at this point? How does dropping the arts degree work? Does it mean I have to make up for those 4 arts units (potentially 6 depending on if I transfer mid sem) by replacing them with science ones? Can the two arts units I do if I transfer midsem next year count as elective units? Is there any way at all for me to still complete the science degree in 3 years despite those arts units (such as doing winter/summer/online units)? Or is there anyway to do more than 4 units in a semester? Also if I work super hard next few years is there even a slight chance of redeeming my WAM/GPA after such a brutal year? Who can I speak to if I have more questions about this? Or how to structure my course cause I have no idea what I'm doing.. I tried going to science student services but I'm not sure how to explain all this (especially the failing of four units and still having the gall to speak of med

) in anything but writing.
Anywho if you managed to read all that, thank you

And if you manage to reply, you have next to all my love <3
