MY OPINION

I totally agree with that, in my case I'm studynig second of batxillerat and I haven't known yet what I want to do next year I don't have a goal, and as Angela lee said I don't have grit to study and have a good mark to be what I want, I think that if I had a goal maybe I would have best marks.
