I was a straight-A student from elementary until freshman year high school, but I'm barely pushing a 2.2 now. My grades have dropped every year since my sophomore year high school (I'm a sophomore in college now).

Is it depression? Lack of motivation could be a sign, especially since you were a straight A student.

That reflects my scenario as well, narf. I find it amusing when people attribute the decline to "lack of motivation". It's more like being ground down to the bone without any assistance whatsoever.

Same here. I did fine in High School, but when I got to college, I didn't do as well as I would've hoped to do well. But, that's okay. As long as I get out of here with a degree, I'll be okay.
