I can ace any lab or field experiment or homework and completely bomb (ok not bombing, but like coming out to about a C) the class because of the exams. I think it's because i don't know what to study so i try to study everything i possibly can, resulting in me understanding enough to get pity points for all the questions, but never the whole thing. It's frustrating especially when you KNOW you can do all those things in practice. And because of that tendency, I now have a sub-par GPA (i'm trying to get into the 3.0 range right now, which would require i start getting B's and up in all my classes ><" )
As per your predicament, I'd say find a small part time job and take a couple of courses at the local CC. Keep your material fresh in your mind, while making bank.
You know what they call that?
