Darkangelism Posted March 27, 2004 Posted March 27, 2004 Im frustrated with school, this sucks. I did only average on my midterms and the grades were bad, but so was the whole classes.
Fedup&givingup Posted March 27, 2004 Posted March 27, 2004 What courses did you take? Were they core classes, more for your declared major, or some of both?
Author Darkangelism Posted March 27, 2004 Author Posted March 27, 2004 One was a major course, but i talked to the professor and he told me that i wasnt trying hard enough, so i tried a lot harder on the other exams and my grades were better, one i got a 68 on but had the 2nd highest score in the class the other was a 65% but the class average was 68% so I didnt do that bad compared to the class, but I thought I did a lot better, I will talk to the professors and try to bring up those grades, i cant afford to have a bad semester.
Author Darkangelism Posted March 27, 2004 Author Posted March 27, 2004 ok, not as bad as i thought, one prof said that nearly everybody gets at least 80% on the rest of the class, so ill end up with a B, another class I will probably get a B- or a B, and the other probably a C+, then my other class an A- so I am not as screwed as I thought, unless I bomb anymore of my work.
sportsloving Posted March 27, 2004 Posted March 27, 2004 Awwww. Just wanted to give you support. Your grades are pretty good! Keep up the great work, carry on!
Arabess Posted March 27, 2004 Posted March 27, 2004 After the first President Bush made the comment "I'm proof that a C student can become President of the United States'.....I think lots of people realized it's in tenacity...not grade point averages which makes someone a success. Relaxe and enjoy your college years. I have great confidence in you DA!!!!!
BlockHead Posted March 27, 2004 Posted March 27, 2004 Some people are good test takers and some aren't.
Author Darkangelism Posted March 27, 2004 Author Posted March 27, 2004 Thanks everybody. I feel better now, i got back a paper from one of the classes and I got an A on it, also yeah grades are not as important as other thing like experince, i just need to stay above a 3.0GPA. Ill just have to work even harder the rest of the semester.
reasontosigh Posted March 27, 2004 Posted March 27, 2004 Work hard, but don't stress yourself out. I do understand your feeling, however. I have had times where I thought I had done worse than I actually did on a test. Great job so far!!!!
meanon Posted March 27, 2004 Posted March 27, 2004 Exams seem like the most important thing in the world at the time - rightly so as you need to do well in them. Then you look back and realise that in most cases they were in no way make or break in the grand scheme of things.
