How does one get a 9 out of 9 as a final mark in an introductory social science university class?

Sorry about the wall of text… you can skip most of it and just answer the question from the title If you want…

My first year of university liberal arts I changed my life around… I stopped skipping class, I did every assignment, I read the textbook, I was polite in class and I stopped being a class clown, and I got low marks, 4,4,5,6,7 out of 9. I tried so hard and I feel like I missed something. I ate all my meals and I went to sleep on time and took care of my self. I believed that I was destined to be a Clinical Psychologist. after the second semester I got depressed and I started dating and I ruined my reputation and got a 4,5 and 6 out of 9 even after I dropped 2 classes from 5 to 3. Second year was a disaster and I failed out in the second semester in the second year… And I went to my new career as a retail clerk… two years later I quit and went sobbing in the emergency ward of a hospital instead of going to work. I could never figure out how to get an A+ in school ever since I was a little kid. So I got resentful and refused to tell student loans that I couldn’t afford any payments… Now I am finding out some facts from my past and I’m told that everything that I went through would make me a better counselor…I’m confused…I want to know what I could have done differently in the first year of the first semester to get at least one 9 out of 9? I read that the university that I wanted to go to for a masters program required students to have a 7.5 out of 9 average to even enter the program(and you need a masters to practice in my province). So I got bummed out when my highest mark was a 7… I came up with anxiety about flipping burgers again for the rest of my life…I don’t want Spongebob’s life… Or am I destined for something else…? I have a love/hate relationship with most other jobs, careers, and majors. I live at home with family and I’m getting over an Illness that prevented me from working for a few years. I might be able to work as a dishwasher next summer part time. The problem is it possible for me to get a 7.5 out of 9 if I go back to school… and Is it worth the trouble? How does anyone get a 9 out of 9 in university…? I’ve seen it done why can’t I? How did anyone you know do it?
