ledwix · 01-21-2007, 12:29 AM

89.8% in trig and my teacher rounds that up. if i missed one more on the final i woulda gotten a B+. how lucky is that!!!!!! everything else was easy. but gosh!

nobody cares, huh. >__<

Nope lol

It was an easy exam, though.

Good job. Good to see people doing well in math, unlike the majority.

If a 90 is an A- then what the hell is an A+? 100? A 90% is an A+ here (university), but that's mostly because noone gets any higher than that anyway (usually less than 10 out of several hundred crack 95%).

Man, I got an A+ in calculus again (Cal 3?). The average was a C. The exam was hard as hell, but I studied quite a bit.

I think I'm done with cal now though. Taking statistics.

**chickendude** · 01-21-2007, 09:15 AM

I have a 98.6 average for the term in AP Calc

Exams start tommorow for me

Yep, same here. There are no minuses in the grading system at the uni I'm at, but I would assume it's the equivalent of an 80%. I couldn't imagine getting a 90%, and having it show up as an A-. I mean, a fairly low percentage of students make 80% or above as it is.

Nonetheless, good work ledwix.

I hate calc AP.

FluorescentArmy · 01-21-2007, 10:27 AM

90% here is a B+. 93% starts the A-'s here. It's gay. I had a 90% in Math because of my gay exam.

Stats should be a breeze compared to Calc. It has been for me so far.

Also, score for me for not having to take exams! Nice long 6 day week off coming my way starting Tuesday. I could take them however if I wanted to boost my grade but that's not even necessary

**chickendude** · 01-21-2007, 10:32 AM

I like math
I wish I could be taking 3 math courses instead of History and English

**itmorr** · 01-21-2007, 10:40 AM

Way to go, that must have been very hard to pull off. Congrats.

JKPolk · 01-21-2007, 10:50 AM

I'm royally pissed, I got a B in Calc III last term by about 1%. One of those classes where the teacher doesn't curve grades OR alter the letter percentages at Uni... you know the type.

**Windscarredfaith** · 01-21-2007, 11:08 AM

Calculus sucks.

lord_carbo · 01-21-2007, 12:00 PM

I'm really upset that I keep getting 85's and **** on honors geometry quizzes. They're easy as ****, I just make so many mistakes. The worst part is that the class is graded 90% by quizzes and tests. 5% is homework (which I just started slacking on due to not knowing what the **** it is) and 5% participation (I force myself to participate, but I think I should get the full 5 for this).

Whatever, I'm on to more important things, like studying number theory in my spare time.

emumuffin33 · 01-21-2007, 12:06 PM

You didn't do to bad. Keep up the work, and..study!

meno_rocks123 · 01-21-2007, 12:07 PM

I'm 20% quizzes and 80%tests
He never checks homework and thinks that you can tell if someone does their homework by how they score.

80% tests? If he doesn't give out a lot then that's royally unfair. Being someone who has taken Math Olympiads and got a 2/5 on an extremely easy test which I made 3 mistakes which should have led to a 5/5 just because I was having a bad day. Because of that forfeited my title as biggest math nerd to some total loser by two points.

I have many bad days. It would suck to have a bad day on a test where even a one point difference on that one measly test can mean the difference between a B+ or an A on your report card.
