Abstract
Critical school psychology proposes the rescue of the school, social and historical dimensions in the understanding of school failure, in an interdisciplinary and group approach. In this perspective, this is an account of university groups of engineering courses, in a federal institution. Psychological counseling groups, vocational guidance, and study techniques have carried out. The group of study techniques was the only one that remained complete until the end of the planned meetings when one can discuss the complexity of daily education, the feeling of school failure and the introjected roles of the blame.
