this week sucked

[iwantanewcomputer]

thermodynamics...studied a bunch, thought it made sense...took test and had absolutely NO clue what i was doing. my score: 26% average: 62%

heat transfer...same as above, except the problems were similar to our homework
My score: 54% average: 64%

Differential equations... actually knew what i was doing, reviewed notes right before test, at 10:00 realized that class started at 9:30, not 10:30... yeah, i got a 30. average was 58%

i hate school. i know the material, but am just a bad test taker with little sleep.

wow, that sucks.

Maybe you're more street smart than book smart.

i got a D- in thermo, D in heat transfer, but an A in diff eq.

i still got a good job when i graduated. dont worry about it, just get through the class.

It isn't like it's rocket science. Ha, ha.

51% after curve on my assembler exam, 50% on my physics exam. I need to pass tomorrow's java exam to keep my passing chances alive..... I feel your pain

Some people just aren't good at taking tests; I happen to be one of those people too.

 

[secretanchitman]

me too. i prepare well, know whats going on, but when it comes to the tests, i literally get blown away.

oh well, at least my trusty new black 30GB iPod with some videos on it awaits me after i finish failing them.

that reminds me, i have an AP US History, AP Stats, and a physics test tomorrow. this sucks.

I never got anxious with exams, and never failed a one in my academic career. There were a couple of pretty damn close calls though, due mainly to girls & alcohol
