I am finishing up my 2nd yr of college this sem with a degree in international business (not so happy picking it but couldnt think of another) The classes i am in are HARD..i can pass them with A's B's and some C's but i dont think am learning anything. Never failed a class..dont think i will but i hate that i  dont learn anything or i do but it doesnt stick. Now for those who have graduated and felt the same way, how am i ever going to apply what i "learned" in real life? And if i cant apply it, isnt this a waste of money? I feel stupid..i seriously hope other kids feel this way....

I was thinking of taking an international business degree myself. there really isn't much difference between that and a normal business degree except around here theres a language credit requirement. you'd have to be a bit more specific about what you think you can't apply...

Most people don't actually use exactly what they learned in college. Most jobs will train you about the policies and procedures that you have to know. It's more important to learn how to apply yourself, good time management skills, and interpersonal skills in college, than any actual "skills" (although typing, grammar, and communication skills are good too).

The best way to learn is to try and apply the material to every day life and find some interest in it. it is difficult to retain material if you are not interested in what you are learning.
