Religion is bringing me down :( 9 months ago

My freshman class has 115 kids. Currently, after one semester I am ranked 1 out of 115. 4.0 :) I am proud of this. However that status is in jeperody because of RELIGION class!! :’( Our teacher is the boys basketball coach and so the boys are already getting the better grade. On top of that 15% of the grade is participation. Girls basically can’t have a right answer. He will find a way to make it the wrong answer! Participation grades suck!
Advice?
Why do teachers do participation grades?



I've wanted to do this 20 months ago

Made the Dean's List 2 years ago

Well, my first quarter at Louisville Tech I made the Dean’s list by getting a 4.0. Now if I can just continue to get A’s for the 7 quarters.

The start of another year 3 years ago

I got some scholarships – 1,600$ in all. Woohoo! I wish I had applied for more. I’m a Golden Key Honour Society member now, so to make the best use of it I’ll be applying for scholarships like woah. At least I don’t have to worry about it right away – I can use the next couple of months to get some letters of recomendation from, oh, anybody who will give them to me.

Year 1, done! 3 years ago

Yeehaw! Year 1 of University is now under my belt. The lowest mark I got for anything was an A-, and I’m a little embarrassed to have done so well on it considering how little brain power I devoted to it. I wrote the paper between taking service calls at work in a weekend. Also I have a sneaky suspicion that I lost most of my marks on having screwed up footnoes. D’oh!

Over the next little while my marks will start rolling in. I hope I’ll be able to maintain my current GPA (4.2) but as long as that first digit is a “4” I’ll be happy. :-)

Still making progress! Can you blame me for wanting to brag about this? 3 years ago

I had my exam in Pop Music today – the history and social whatsit thereof. Very fun, very interesting, and holy crap my hand still hurts after three solid hours of writing. Sheesh. I felt great about it, though – I’m confident that I got an A. It would be really, really hard for me not to have gotten an A. (Please, please let me get an A. I’ll be good, I promise.)

So before we started the exam my prof took a minute to address the class. Out of 90-odd final essay papers, see, about a third of them had no citation whatsoever, or incorrect citation that would basically amount to plagiarism. Not good. Because my prof is a great and benevolent being, he’s therefore giving the whole class the chance to revise their papers later in the month.

Which is pretty cool. I will admit that the cogs in my head started turning, wondering if I could scrounge up a few extra marks. (Being paranoid I couldn’t help but wonder if I’d screwed up my citation somehow and thus doomed myself to Academic Hell.)

When he was handing me an extra exam booklet, he whispered:

“I read your essay. Don’t worry about it.”

Which made me happy, and also made me wonder whether my thoughts are branded on my forehead or something.

Three hours and a cramped hand later, I handed in my exam. I made some silly comment about having just barely avoided giving him four booklets. He nodded, then leaned over and, in a conspiratorial whisper, said:

“I don’t want you to revise your essay. I gave you an A+.”

So I said something like, “Oh. Good to know.” And floated out of the class on a fluffy white cloud.

I spent a good chunk of the last five or six years convincing myself that I wasn’t particularly bright. Looks like grade school is coming back to haunt me.



So far... 4 years ago

I only have 2 more years of high school to go, and I have successfully maintained a 4.0 GPA throughout all of my years so far! =)
