>The only ideas worth a damn, i.e. 'intersectionality'

Cmon dude.

University just started on monday.
And I feel like the dumbest piece of shit.
I have very hard problems on understanding what the prof is lecturing about. I mean very hard. I can't even get about 10% of what actually is going on.
That so many is taught is such short time doesn't help me either. It's been 3 days now and everyday something else is going on when I didn't even get the subject of the day before.
Trying to understand all of this alone at home doesn't bring me any further.

And it's just some preperation courses in math for my physics study that officially start in october.
Am I just dumb and not able to do this 'higher' math? School math was nothing for me.
Is there a way of improving and getting better?
Because I can't seem to see any.
