You got this love !❤️

[@litzygodinez2875]

Aw girl you got this! We believe in you.

[@AmandaMonroe]

Thank you🤍🤍

[@Anastasia_Rae]

I feel the same way!! I just graduated with my undergrad in May and I just started classes for my MBA. I’m taking 4 classes and no joke I have 20-30 assignments due every week and I’m a stay at home mom. It’s very overwhelming but like you said I’m just taking it one day at a time! Thanks for sharing how your first week went!!!

[@AmandaMonroe]

Yes one day at a time😇 thank you and good luck to you!🤍

[@bigray5929]

Wishing you success and happiness. Head up and keep on trucking.👍

[@AmandaMonroe]

Thank you 😇

[@Sasha_xo]

Five classes in grad school is a lot don’t feel bad or guilty if you decide to only take 3 or 4! I’m in grad school too and that’s what I’m doing and it’s way more manageable. You got this! 💜

[@AmandaMonroe]

Thank you!🤍 yeah the reason I’m taking this many is to meet my goal of finishing in a year so we’ll see how it goes 😅

[@Sasha_xo]

@@AmandaMonroe ohh okay I see. You got this! Rooting for you girl and looking forward to more videos! I’m a new subscriber 😊

[@morgannwest5190]

You got this!!!!

[@AmandaMonroe]

Thank you!🤍🤍

[@hannahsworld838]

I needed this today thank you - I am also feeling imposter syndrome and it’s really overwhelming. I’ve found talking to my cohort to really help :)

[@Thelindseyss]

I love your transparency I would love to get personal with your experience especially diversity. I attended an HBCU but I want to try and open my heart up to other schools which is why I chose these two schools as well with my field

[@AmandaMonroe]

Yeah so growing up the schools i attended were always really diverse or majority poc so all my friends upbringing were similar to mine and when i went to college it was the first time where being a poc, i was in the minority (in groups i ran in since u of a specifically is majority white and Hispanic) and i will say it has been such an eye opening experience! Ever since I’ve been such an advocate for going outside your comfort zone and emerging yourself in a community that you’re unfamiliar with because you can learn so much! I’ve learned so much more about myself and it’s pushed me to care even more about so many social issues just seeing that disparity that I’ve never before experienced

[@alyssarankin4889]

As you probably can see from all the other comments you are absolutely not alone in the way that you’re feeling. I recently started vet school at UofA and I totally felt that overwhelming anxiety feeling. I felt the imposter syndrome hard and started doubting myself like I got in to the program by accident. Thank you for showing your raw emotions and showing that it can be tough to feel all these feelings. I really appreciate that. I keep telling myself to take it one day at a time and before I know it the semester will be over and I will be confused why I doubted myself because it’s gonna be great. Sending good vibes to you. Good luck in your program. These experiences will help us grow. ❤️

[@baileyringer6952]

I ran the Saferide program at U of A last year!! It’s great!

[@AmandaMonroe]

Literally a life saver

[@kmachado013]

I just graduated with my undergrad and won’t be attending grad school till next year, and every new semester seemed overwhelming for me too. The best thing is definitely to take it day by day and just remember you are trying your best. I don’t you should be worried about imposter syndrome, everyone reaches goals at different points in their life and you’ll get to where you need to be with time. Good luck 🍀 also, your nail designs are cute✨

[@AmandaMonroe]

Thank you so much it means a lot 🤍🤍

[@nintia2043]

I love big brother! Who do you think has the best chance of winning this season? 🥰

[@AmandaMonroe]

Crossing my fingers for Tiffany or Hannah!🤞🏼

[@nintia2043]

@@AmandaMonroe Same!! but I think Xavier is ahead of everyone’s game 😩

[@AmandaMonroe]

@@nintia2043 true he’s positioned himself so well, i wonder who the cookout is gonna go after first 😬

[@ericaortiz2129]

I finished my grad school program for education in November and I had breakdowns a lot more than I did in undergrad. My program was a year round program with each class being 5 weeks so I only took 1-2 classes at a time and even that was beyond stressful so cudos to you for taking 5 classes! I was also even more stressed/over whelmed because I was the only person fresh out of undergrad while everyone else in my classes were already teachers. You’ll get through it!

[@Thelindseyss]

Yay I’m going to grad school soon we’ll have options between SHSU and ASU but idk which to chose to start spring 2022. I have my bachelors in Criminal justice and now want to go into psychology

[@MyOwnMotivation171]

Hi please can we be friends. There are a few questions I wanna ask but it's a bit personal

[@maggiebranch4253]

Hey Amanda

[@thatemilygirl9104]

Good luck, girl. I caught Covid my first week of classes, and it was a nightmare. Starting off can be complicated by so many things. Stuff just happens, and know you aren’t alone. Hang in there. 🥰

[@AmandaMonroe]

Thank you!🤍 good luck to you too🤗

[@NavsDavs8]

Thank you for sharing raw emotions. My application& financial aid took a long time to process. They told me I would most likely be starting for spring semester. So I was not prepared at all, when I got the call that everything processed and I could start fall semester. I got my class schedule made the same day college started. I'm a transfer student from community colleges. I haven't been to a university setting, I didn't explore the campus, and I haven't been to college in 4yrs. I'm taking Pathology& Genetics and I took my biology, microbiology, and human anatomy classes years ago! I feel like I'm reading a different language when I read the text. I also have a son, a family at home. I still got to pick him up and do the home things. I got so overwhelmed too. I almost thought about "dropping out" cause idk how it's gonna work....but I guess we take it one day at a time. & Let it out!! I'm going to school at NAU but I wanted to go to school at UofA. That's how I found your channel. Watching your videos inspires me and gives me someone to relate too. Like we are all in this together. So thank you for sharing I feel even less alone!

[@AmandaMonroe]

Thank you for sharing your experience as well! Glad we’re not alone! Good luck to you 🤍

[@trulykeanna148]

What’s your program?

[@yanettefranco9105]

What are you studying for graduate school?

[@AmandaMonroe]

Teaching and teacher education :)

[@davidparnell3241]

First

[@bhooper123]

I felt the exact same this week at UofA. I literally had a moment where I broke down crying and I wasn’t even sure why. It was so much more than I was anticipating but at the end of the day you just have to remember take things one day at a time and try not to get overwhelmed. Glad you openly shared this real and honest video because I’m sure many people feel the same way. 🥰🙏🏼🤍

[@AmandaMonroe]

Thank you!🤍 Yes that’s the plan, just taking it one day at a time😇
