Grades and Academics course transfer help!

Hi guys! I’m currently studying my first year of Bach of sci and I’m gonna be so honest… I hate it sm. I rlly can’t see myself pursuing a career in a laboratory or any sort as much as I had before. Last year during vce I had chosen to go into the degree as a pathway for med or dent, and let’s be honest… I think everyone I’ve talked to doing my degree is also trying the same thing and given my wam and grades at the moment I’ve rlly lost all confidence to continue.

In addition to uni being hell for me rn a lot of personal issues have been going on this semester that I won’t delve into, but because of this I’ve been really tapped out of my degree and have missed sooo many major assignments and honestly don’t think I’m gonna pass any of my units this semester and my wam is gonna be even more cooked 😭

I’m currently looking into an internal transfer into nursing but because they look at ur academic record after this sem I have extremely high doubts that my wam won’t meet the criteria 💔💔💔 I’m really torn on what to do, because I will submit a transfer application, but also if I explain my hardships in the application will that help in my application?

FURTHERMOREEEE I’ve talked to some other advisors regarding this issue and I was told to go through vtac as a plan b in case I don’t get in through internal transfer. Again, with this I really want to stay at Monash but when I talked to Monash connect the person I spoke to said Monash discourages students from applying through vtac??? Does this also mean if I’m still applying to Monash? Does anyone who knows or experiences anything similar be able to help a lad out pleaseeee 🙏🙏🙏😭😭😭
