Feeling very defeated and shameful at the fact that BEC has been my hardest exam. Can anyone else relate?

Don't be ashamed!!! In my opinion, BEC is the most challenging because the content doesn't really build upon itself. Like each section within BEC is random info that you have to memorize. Whereas with the other sections, the info builds upon itself more & you don't have to memorize a bunch of info that has nothing to do with anything. So I understand completely!
