Like three semesters in. I enjoyed the first one for sure, but then the degree I was going for got moved to a transfer degree. Ever since, I've kind of hated it. It feels like a chore. I don't care much about graduating one way or another.

Have you looked into a different but similar degree? Sucks you hit that point at just three terms in

i was in the same boat, I started my masters program the semester before the 2020 pandemic. I was originally supposed to graduate in 2021, but after a few deaths in the family, the inability to go physically in person for some required lab work (im in biology), and hating every class online. I almost did not want to finish it. But I'm so close to finishing it now I can see the finish line. It just sucked when a 2 year program got extended to 4 years for me cuz of a global pandemic and personal issues.

Other than just sticking to your potential degree, if you're not feeling it rn, maybe take a semester or 2 off, maybe forcing yourself to go to isn't working and you're feeling dragged down by it. The best time to take time off is usually spring semester cuz iirc for a lot of universities, they dont count summer as a semester you've taken off and if you take too many semesters off you'll have to reapply to the university.

Congrats on finding your second wind and making it this far, and sorry for your losses. Biology sounds exciting.

I did take off two terms last year, got back into it with the Spring term this year. Started with two classes, did fine, then tried with two classes again and ended up having to drop to one, and now I'm in my third term back.

oh and I didn't even get any work done last night beyond typing up the header for the page. great.
