Your 2 hundredths of a point off of the mark. Appeal to whomever you need to appeal to and get out of that mess. Then stop messing around a do your work.
yeah thanks man.. I'll check on what people with similar situations have done and if it's a fair thing to do by appealing.
I doubt your going to get out of it.
Say you get a ticket for driving 72 in a 70 mph zone, you go to the court and say it was "Only 2 mph over" you really think they are gonna drop the ticket?
Man up next semester and pull that ish up
if I was the person with the authority here; I'd let the guy with the speeding ticket go lol... that's a sucka move by the cop lol; but I wouldn't let someone with their GPA situation like mine off easy. I knew the rules, I knew I was border line and I shouldn't have messed around.
Just like the rest of the world, nothing is your fault. Having a D average is pretty pathetic, dude.
agreed... just curious, who has a D average though?
Maybe instead of looking for excuses and blaming everyone else, you should put more energy into school if it's important to you. Doesn't sound to me as if it's that important, though, if you've got a D average.
I didn't think I was making excuses; I was hating on myself if anything... I admitted to the mistakes being my own fault and them being stupid mistakes too. They were both really mistakes of me not making sure of my important records like that.... what idiot lets that stuff go? it was my fault completly.
and for the 2nd part... No school is not important to me. I do it to please my parents (which yes is a shitty reason to go to college but it's important to them for me to have a degree + they did so much for me) and I work full time nights at a government job that I've been at for the past 3 years... School really is not my #1 thing like it is for most others.
what is academic probation? are they going to kick you out? your in your 3rd year your almost there, how many credit hours do you have?
I have one year to get my average over 2.0 (C for those getting confused). You can't graduate with a GPA below 2.0 and if it doesn't come above that in the year to get it up, then they kick you out for a year and then you have to re-apply to get back in.
If you have a D average, it's not just those two small things, bud
again, who has the D average bud? I know I'm not much better... but here's the difference: C = 63%..... D=53%... Both bad but 10% on any grade is important.
dude why are u b!tching? it is your fault if u are getting below a 2.0 that is just fvcking horrible
agreed.. but I didn't really pass blame so...
yup, I'm liek a dummy
If 2.0 is a C average, then it would stand to reason that anything BELOW 2.0 would be LESS than a C average, right? So.... what's below a C? Oh that's right.... a D.
Ok, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt... a D+.
and where do you fit your C- into that scale?
Hope your parents aren't footing the bill for this joke you call a college education, OP.
I got full scholarship offered right after high school and I got a great job offering... More than most get at 18 years old so I won't be offended by people saying I'm not bright...
anyways, thanks for those who have offered advice or similar experiences though... I mean I was just pissed off when I got my letter. And for the people who think I'm making excuses, I'm not... I take the blame for letting my grades fall and I should have never even been border line.. I'm capable of much better... I really made the thread to see others in probation and how they dealt with it. And I admit that I'm in over my head... full time work + full time school = too much for me... I know people who have done it and did well but I'll even admit that's just too much for me.
