Default Grades so far. Next semester's classes.

For college students or high school kiddos near the end of their semester, how're your grades looking?

Mine:

Composition II: A
Civilization I: B
College Algebra: D
Introductory Sociology: A

Have a 3.0. I feel like my D overshadows my 2 A's. It's frustrating since I really wanted to pass Algebra too. I have to take Quanitative Skills (a math a step below Algebra).

Next semester:

Quanitative Skills- MATH 1100
Political History of US/Georgia- HIST 1100
Global Perspectives in Developmental Psychology- PSYC 2300
Principles of Biology I- BIO 1107
Bio Lab- BIOL
Online Concepts of Fitness- PEBC 2300.

Default Re: Grades so far. Next semester's classes.

Intro to Theater: B
Intro to Programming: B
Wester Civ since. 1600: A
Inquiry to Values (Philosophy): A
Discrete Math: C

I hated discrete math with a passion. I always understand math...when it's taught by females for some reason. When men teach it, it's confusing. Plus this teacher was a bit of a douche.

Next semester:
Oral Communication Process
Data Structures
Programming in C++
Elementary Statistics (required. Otherwise I'd take a better math class)
Intro to American Gov.

I was going to take a Creative Writing class, but I was wait-listed, leaving me with 10 credit hours. This would make me not qualify for full-time student scholarships, so I had to take the government class to fill it up. I was hoping to drop it if I ever got into the writing class, but alas...D: Now I'm stuck with a 9:00 AM ;~;

I swear to God that universities are purposely making mathematics hard for all to weasel out who's not cut out for the program which is really f**ked especially if you're doing well in the majority of your other degree courses -_- I failed one of the two Math courses needed for my degree and yet I'm getting 80s in everything else...

Default Re: Grades so far. Next semester's classes.

IB:
HL Maths is a headfuck.
SL Biology is an annoyance that requires too much regurgitation of information rather than an understanding.
SL Psychology is a disappointment that revolves around remembering names.
HL Economics is incredibly graph heavy.
SL English is hit and miss, i struggle to play against the mark scheme and end up just rambling.
Philosophy lacks conclusiveness.
HL French is lovely to learn, but close to fluency in a year's time? Ouch

but nah, the latter five of those are okay, just a rather large step up from last year. I have no idea what grades i'm capable of though.

Physiology: B-

3.3 GPA, which isn't horrible, but I could have done better, although physiology and bio lab were just plain stupid ridiculously hard tests, and I loathed those classes with passion :P

Next semester, I'm probably going to take:
Art History, Gen Chem II, Calc II, Writing Seminar, and probably something else, which I haven't decided yet :P

It's a geology class. It's the study of the different kinds of dinosaurs.

Default Re: Grades so far. Next semester's classes.

My semester doesn't end until late January..high school...

But here were my grades as of 12/10

AP US History: A
AP Chemistry: A
French 1: A
Pre-Calculus: B
Honors Economics: A
Forensics: A
World Literature (English 12): A

How I have straight A's except in Pre-Calc is beyond me. In Economics and AP US History I expected a B- at best, and in Pre-Calc I expected a D.

By the way, I hate everyone who complains about not getting an A, but they still have a B or higher. A B (or higher) is a good grade, so shut the hell up because no one wants to hear about your desire to be impossibly perfect.

My brother's girlfriend..or should I say x-girlfriend used to do that all the time. She actually tried to use her name (Ashley Anastasia A______) as a reason why she should get A's because there are so many A's in it. He broke up with her for that, because that's what 40% of all their conversations were about, how she got an 89% instead of a 90%.
