What would you do if you were me?

Hello , happy new year. A bjt of background first: I'm a 22 years old uni student (male if it matters).I live in a country which its economy is going downhill for a bunch of reasons. Drought is all over the place as well. I started learning/working in tech since i was about 16. Since then i have worked and had impact in several projects, some of which were complex and were handling heavy traffic(yes I'm a backend dev). The thing is, life here has grown rather intolerable for me. As an example yesterday a professor failed me on database course because i wasn't using sqlserver gui(simply running code via sqlcmd, and he was literally afraid to look at something he is not familiar with), i mean everything would have been the same even if i used the gui, it was a matter of editor... . Well that's just one example, stuff like that is all around me in uni, I'm not bragging about myself but I'm sure i know the basics good enough to pass a simple course... I can't leave the country before 2 years of mandatory military service. Or i can put in some money as a collateral and leave, but it's a bit hard to collect all that money while attending university and even if i did,i feel like immigrating without having my degree will become a problem for me carrier-wise. I feel like I'm trapped in a deadlock.
