I'm dropping out I'm tired of University, I'm sick of all my professors for treating me harshly especially during these hard times, and I hate taking midterms.

I'm currently a college freshman in the middle of the semester, and things have been pretty tough. I've been procrastinating the whole week because I had everything going on and I couldn't keep up. I'm a biology major (pre-med) and I have to take two science classes. I suck at managing time and I suck at studying. I feel like I cannot do this. Also, whenever I do my assignments, my professors grade so friggen harshly & give me unfair grades even though I work all the way through midnight finishing it.

I'm a good student, it's just that you know some people can be burned out. I am burned out and college has just been draining my soul each day. Should I drop out?

Read the sample student paragraph that addresses a counterclaim. some claim that the internet both invades and compromises one’s right to privacy. however, this is ridiculous. the internet is only as invasive as one allows it to be, particularly since there are laws to protect people’s privacy. exercising caution when supplying personal information online is the most vital step in protecting one’s privacy. any information you do not feel comfortable sharing online should not be shared, and sensitive information should only be provided to trusted organizations. additionally, some states have already enacted privacy laws that model the federal privacy act of 1974, ensuring that information collected for one purpose may not be used—or sold—for other purposes without first notifying the individual to whom the data belongs. the first and most important protector of an individual’s information is that individual. people whose personal information is not properly protected only have themselves to blame. what evidence weakens the counterclaim in this paragraph? the internet is only as invasive as one allows it to be. exercising caution is the best way to protect one’s privacy online. some states have already enacted online privacy laws. it is the individual’s fault when personal information is unprotected.
