Doubts about the studies
Doubts about the choice of studies are normal and arise for many students during the course of their studies. Often the thoughts of dropping out disappear again, but sometimes they don't: the subject doesn't (or no longer) match your own interests, the examinations are permanently overwhelming or you want to learn a profession closer to or directly in a practical application.
Studying is just one of many ways to get off to a good start in your professional life. Dropping out of university should be carefully considered, but can be exactly the right individual "course correction" and decision if you have fundamental doubts about your studies.
