And then you get grades on your grade giving right? Craziness.

What did you give the F for?

A few students didn't do a drawing assignment I gave, so they drew a picture while I was teaching and turned it in. So I gave them half credit (which is an F). I was being generous. :moody:

[Swan]

I think I know mine about, 3 C's and an A

most teachers would NEVER do that.

i hope to one day have you as my teacher :D

[Krypton]

I want to know how you guys do it so easily, it seems like you get by so nicely, while im struggling just to get a B =/

[Typhoid]

I dont have school anymore.

But I can assure you, with all of my quarter-assed efforts I put into everything, I'd be pulling off a C/C+ average.

[BlueFire]

These our last semester grades

AP Literature- B+
AP Art- B+
Government Honors- A+
Sculpture I- A
Anatomy and Physiology H- A+

I'm taking Humanities this semester. I really like the class.

Yay, I don't feel like a moron now...so alike

[ZebraRampage]

My first semester grades at Pitt are as follows.

Basic Physics Science and Engineering 1 - B
Analytic Geometry and Calculus 1 - B+
Chem 1 for Engineers - C+
Engineering Analysis - B+
Pitt Marching Band - A

Basically I took Physics 1, Calc 1, Chem 1, and Programming. My major is going to be Civil Engineering so it's probably a good thing that I did better in Calc and Physics, than Chem. I think that I just didn't study as much for Chem than everything else because I was more focused on the subjects that I was better at.

According to this internet forum, we can coclude everyone on the planet gets an everage of a B/A.


Except for those of us that dont lie. ;)

[Swan]

Or all the bad graded people are out getting partied.

[fingersman]

My grades where.........

opps forgot I don't go to school anymore.....I graduated. :p

[Vampyr]

haha, i don't HAVE grades anymore... i GIVE grades

just gave an F today.

Yeah, most teachers never do that. And I'm glad, because I do my homework in class a lot.

And unless you're teaching elementary school and trying to engrave good manners into the kids, I don't really agree with it. From the time I've been in kindergarten it's been ok for me to do that, and I can only imagine its that way for most kids. I don't really think twice about doing it; no teacher has ever commented on it and I don't expect them too.

If they've been taught all their life that it's ok to do it then its not really fair to deduct from their grade. Give them detention just so that they know it's not ok to do it in your classroom, and warn them next time they do it you'll give them a zero.

[Krypton]

what I really hate, is how my parents {but mainly my dad} say how much better i could've done even if I was 99.9% away from all A's, they still say "Oh Son, You Could've Done Better", and yeah I know they want the best for me, but most parents would have a heart attack if their son/daughter brought home a near perfect report card.

Just today I was talking to my buddy Rob, and he asked if i got my report yesterday, and i said yeah, and he asked how I did, and i said my grades, but the C stuck out, and I told him how my dad took me aside and talked to me about it, and he said his parents would crap if he even brought home an all C report card.

I was bummin'.

My mom is going to flip sh!t when she finds out I'm failing Calc, but eh. It's amazing how little you start to care about grades the farther you progress in school. The thing is, grades aren't an ample way to guage intelligence. Anyone can get good grades - I know dumb people that study for 3-4 hours a night, and pull straight A's. I also know kids that don't study and pull straight A's. Obviously, there's a huge shady line here, but I'd say that the 3-4 hour bunch isn't particularly smart, or not as smart. I tend to fall somewhere in the middle. I need to study some of the material, but usually can half-ass a lot of it too.

[Neo]

Priceless. ;)


Algebra: C


Einstein made C's in math too. In fact his teachers thought he had a learning disability.

So are you saying that you really do know the material and for whatever reason can't reproduce it on the test, or that you don't know the material but it doesn't matter because you have a high I.Q.?

I'm saying that I haven't opened my book yet, except to copy the answers for each homework assignment from the back. I suppose I pay a little bit of attention in class, but unless I practice something I really can't place it...or produce it on a test. And I'm really dumb too. They accidently put me in an advanced placement class.

[Neo]

I too remember retrieving certain answers from the back, and then working backwords to meet the gap from your initial work. In the gap you write "and then a miracle occurs."

[Krypton]

I don't get how what I said was priceless?

EDIT: is it because I should've said "are" instead of "is"?

[GameMaster]

I want to know how you guys do it so easily, it seems like you get by so nicely, while im struggling just to get a B =/

I would be lying if I didn't tell you I BS most of my work. Instead of reading books, I read their summaries online via sites like sparknotes.com. Instead of planning my time and working through projects, reports, and essays at a steady pace, I do it all in one long night. The best part about that is that I'm not supposed to get away with it but I do. I get the same grades as the person who worked through the assignment the way it was supposed to be done. I suppose that's the way I exercise my mind. Not by learning the material, but by learning how to learn it without actually learning it.

The only thing I have yet to outsmart is math, there's no easy way around math homework. Even if you just take the answers from the back of the book, you still have to provide work on your paper to show you actually did something. And whether you care about it or not, it's still time consuming.

I can say with a smile that I finished my last math class ever last semester, unless I have to take one for some reason in graduate school.

[Krypton]

well.

about the book reading thing, apparently my dad, back when he was younger {early 50's - 60's} would check out encyclopedia's by book, {A-B etc.} and apparently he thinks kids now-a-days still do that, even with things like the computer and playstations and gamecubes etc.

[GameMaster]

Well, he may be on to something there, I've never used a PlayStation or Gamecube as a research tool. I've only used those systems to escape my homework. ;)
