Grades!

[MillsJROSS]

It's that time of year again, at least for me. How'd you guys fare, how do you think you will fare, and are you faring at this moment?

I got 2A's and 3B's, which I'm not too happy about, but as my GPA is still above 3.5, I won't worry too much about it. The only thing that pisses me off is getting a B in math, I must have done poorly on the final, because I was sure I had aced that class (It was only precalc, which I had basically already taken in high school twice over). However, I did make a B in Physical Anthropology, which I wouldn't suggest a class that anyone should take. I had to restrain myself from suicide while listening to lectures on how this bone structure/fragment was diffrent from the last one, where it was found, how old it was, and what new species grouping it was to be found in leading up to Homo Sapiens. The teacher wouldn't curve the individual tests, instead she did it all at the end with everyone's raw score. Which a curve is good, either way, but no one in the class had any idea as to how they were doing grade wise. Our last midterms average was 50, you know there's something wrong with a test when it's that bad. But enough of my bitching, I made the grade, I just don't suggest anyone else take the class. If you do, though, try to study each day, it'll probably process much better, as I tend to wait the night before.

4 finals coming up (History, Math, Computers and Physics) and I should do well in all.

[Jimi]

I am doing my year nine SATs at the moment (NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!) It was sooooooooooo boring today. It was the 2 science tests. I know I did shit, but luckily I am top out of year nine and ten at maths (acording to the test the top 5 year nine, ten, and eleven students did, in which I came second behind a year eleven  )

[Adamski]

Final A-Level exams. Starting in two weks on monday. Big stress. Going to fail. Bleh

GPA (cum. for all high school classes taken 3.58)
not good, considering that that makes my class rank barely over 50%...my high school is super competitve.

[Jimi]

I normal lessons (we don't get big exams in this lesson, just tiny tests every now and again) I never get less than an A in Music. You can't get more than that in music!

[Trapezoid]

I'm technically a dropout :D

[Las Naranjas]

An elementary school dropout at that?

[Trapezoid]

Nay, preschool.

[Matt Brown]

i got expelled from preschool for biting people. its weird...it was a jewish preschool, and I wasn't jewish. so, they didnt really want me there. and after  I bit someone important, they made me leave

[evenwolf]

Funny that you should ask, as I ran all over campus today in order to drop a class that would have plummeted my GPA. Now, instead, it will only take me 7 years to graduate college. Sweet.

[Sluggo]

Well, it's not like (Junior year in) High School can really compare to College in difficulty, but I just found out today that my GPA is 98.16 (3.9 I guess it translates as), so that's pretty cool I guess. I'm #2 in my class, but watch out Milissa Lewis!

Hey, Mr. Panda, what's your schedule at school? How do you manage to fit 9 classes into it?

[Matt Brown]

actually, I have 10. I left off STAR which is a independant study corse for computer science.

I have a class before school, and a class during lunch (jazz band)

what can I say? I love the drums, and I'm a high flyer. I own the school record for classes in a year, and will have the credits record.

[DragonRose]

Weeee! I'm getting an 81% in my top six OAC's, and I recently got excepted to a university (still waiting to hear back from a few others). I had to drop one course this semester, which was supposed to be stupid easy, but I was getting a seventy percent in. However, in the hardest non-math OAC, I'm getting 81%. Go figure.

[edmundito]

oh.. I just got an F in one of my classes... F@$%, I'm going to have to retake that class in the summer...

My gpa is 3.0.. and I can' t go lower than that cause they'll reduce my scholarship.

Yeah, it's been a terrible year for me  

[MrColossal]

i'm graduating in 5 days...

*begins crying*

[remixor]

I don't really know my grades yet, but I've finals coming up and who the hell knows how that will go...
These are all guesses as to my average right now.  I'm not going to pretend I know all the plusses and minuses or anything yet

Music Criticism 49A: A
Muicianship 49B: A
Music Harmony 49C:B
Piano 405C: Pass (no grades in that class)
Cello 40: Pass (same)
Computer Science 39K: Pass (same)
Political Science 2: B

I'm doing ok at the moment, but the end of this semester really snuck up on my and I'm worried as hell for these final exams.

[Timosity]

I'm glad I don't have to think about these types of things anymore.

last course I did I got straight A's and passed with distinction, that's enough 4 me and to get into the course I was selected on selection test and personality test, they took 32 people from over 1000 applicants.

It hasn't got anything to do with my current job either, grades mean shit, uni can help get you a degree, but unless you do a specific course, good luck getting a job with it in this day and age.

well at least a job you want to do.

Good luck to everyone sitting exams, but remember it's not the end of the world if you don't get what you want.

[remixor]

Yeah, my degree is going to be worthless as soon as I get it.  I'm a bloody music major.  What on earth do I do with that?  Well, who knows.  I guess I'll find out in a few years  :

Congrats everyone, but remember that academic achievements are just pieces of paper - what really matters is your ability to cope with the situation when being swallowed by a giant shark in the middle of the atlantic ocean.
