I don't know what to do

I'm going to fail this Chemistry test. I've been working on the practice test almost all day and like half of the problems I'm completely stumped on. ;_; Chemistry tutoring already happened this week (and it's not that helpful anyway), I feel terrible mooching off of And this is WITH the textbook, solutions manual, etc. I don't know what I'm going to do on the test itself.

Lab on Monday was incredibly frustrating. I thought my measurements were going well, but when I did the calculations, everything was totally off. I couldn't spend more time on redoing the experiment, so for that section of the lab, I got a 2/6. I tried to explain to Mr. Burns that I'm having a difficult time in the lab and need help, but he refused to help at all and just gave me his evil, smug smile and "Why didn't you try harder?"

In addition to that, I haven't finished or turned in either of the two last labs because I'm completely stumped on them. I won't have time to finish them tomorrow because I'll be too busy preparing for the test, which is worth five times more than the two labs combined. I've gotten 2/20 on the last two quizzes.

I've considered withdrawing from the class several times, but I know that would just mean I have to take it again--and I don't have time for that. I already wasted one semester on Chemistry 2A (Not part of my major) because my counselor screwed up and didn't tell me until the day of the Chem 2A final

It's all Burns, too. It's not like I'm not working my ass off. I basically understand all the content. It's just the way Burns runs his class, it's impossible to do well at all if you're not 100% PERFECT. ALL THE TIME. Now, Ritika--she has the brain for this stuff, and spends stunning amounts of time on all the homework. I don't have the brain for this, and I'm prone to minuscule errors or just clumsy things, and even if I demonstrate that I understand the concept, that's not good enough for him. Shouldn't it be the other way around?

So, in short, this sucks. I need a B in this class, at least, but it's starting to feel like even that's unattainable for me.

What can I do? I'm going to try talking to him (though I have a feeling that's not going to go well), and I can try to get help from my classmates, but I'm worried that's not going to be enough.

I'm so worried. Because if I can't get into vet school because of this class, I have no idea what I'm going to do with my life. I feel like being a vet is literally what I was born to be.

This is only my first year of college. I wish I had heeded the warnings on RateMyProfessor.com.

I'm so frustrated.
