> Nearly failed that class

I did fail it in university. Took it again and got an A-, and now love working with assembly and computer architecture.

The struggle make your knowledge crystallize even better, on top of overcoming the failure. I almost wish anyone to fail one important class in university.

I deeply regret the courses I barely passed. And the courses for which I had prior knowledge to pass comfortably but not engage on the nuances.

That was me with a high performance scientific computing class.
