Being an adult sucks

I had t thought about a graphing calculator, even though my (math) professor has mentioned them and says we can't use them. But we can use scientific calculators. Are there any good GC's that look like scientific or ordinary ones? 

I can remember very simple formula's but I've been overloaded with them to the point where if they're  anything more than simple, even each of the formulas for circles, I get confused. I'm not sure why. I'm beginning to believe I may have a learning disability. I follow along 100% in class and everything's clear as day. But when I'm on my own, it may as well be Chinese. 

Anyway, thanks for the input guys. I'm gonna keep chippin' away for the time being to see if I make any improvements, but I know if I struggle with an upcoming exam, I'm gonna be even more disappointed than now. I have a (math) exam tomorrow of which I plan on studying all night and all day tomorrow all the way up to class. Hopefully something clicks.  

I can't say I've done my best because I always feel I can do better, but I have put forth great effort only to feel like there's a wall I front of me that I can't break through. 

Update coming Friday. 

It might just be your learning style man. Everyone has different learning styles. I can't memorize math formulas just by reading them. I had to do extra problems and use the formulas over and over until they became second nature. Then, a day or two before the exam I would copy the formulas down to a piece of paper and just carry around with me everywhere. Every 10 or so minutes I'd try to remember to formulas without looking at the paper and then double check to see which ones I forgot. The ones I forgot I focused on. A lot of it comes down to repetition brother.
