Bastards.

This nine weeks I got a 3.1 gpa, from a 2.1 last nine weeks, sounds good right? Well..here's the lineup

The F is in my Pre-Calulus class. I failed the entire semester. So after I got my report card Friday, I took it home. Of course, the parents were happy, considering I got a whole GPA point higher, but the F bothered me. So, I went to school today, and turned in a request for to meet with my guidance guy, and the people in the office go, "You can't change classes anymore, that was supposed to be done last Monday."

Well, what the F*CK. I just got the REPORT card friday, how the hell should I know if I passed that class.

So, after pissing off the office lady, I came home and had my dad call, maybe get them to change their minds. What a mistake.

I got the "It's not our fault that your son isn't properly prepared for changing his classes earlier, he's just going to have to try more in that class, because we are done switching. We've had too many complaints, and we're sick of it. Tell your son he needs to start paying attention and maybe this could have been averted"

Just a note, there are 29 people in my class. 13 of them failed, 5 got D's, 6 got C's, 2 got B's, and 3 got A's. So it's not just me. I tried like hell in that class. Apparantly not enough.

It's bull, makes me want to burn down the school. Nobody told me that class changes ended Monday, when we don't get our REPORT CARDS until that Friday.

So, now I'm stuck with a class that *****, failing it, and it's killing my GPA, and chances at a good scholarship. Thank you, Florida school system, you have screwed me well. May I have another?

****, man, that sux. Pre-calc was a pain for me too. It was a good thing there was a hella curve in there or who knows what i might have ended up with. Just try a little harder, that's all i can say.

Yeah, unfortunately my school doesn't believe in curves.

The nine weeks have been going on since 2 weeks. I have given up in pre-cal, I've been trying to get out since last nine weeks.

Show what happens when you rely on the school system to help you. Especially Florida's, no wonder we rank so low.

i took pre-calc last year and did decent. But then again math is one of my best subjects. This year im taking AP Calculus. Lets just say its now one of my worst subjects. I am failing and she said the only way she can pass me is if i pass the midterm. Well i took it today and there is a very slim chance that i passed it. And I have no clue why they even have Pre-Calc....it has nothing to do with calculus at all. Its just another pointless class where you learn stuff you will never need to know ever again.

I suggest that you guys get through at least pre-calc. Most colleges will require that you take at least that, if not even calculus, I know for most majors here you need calculus. I took calculus in high school and even though I didn't do too good it helps to have a little background in the subject.

Actually, i did better in my pre-calc class last semester than i did in high school. I feel it mostly depends on the teacher. This semester, however, my teacher is a complete moron.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/banghead.gif.8606515f668c74f6de0281deb475b6fd.gif

So far, I think calc is way harder in college than it was for me in high school, but not being able to use calculators now also makes it a lot harder.

****, I'd be lost without mine. Especially in those long boring classes in which i play games on it.

 

[TheGrimReaperKD 10+ year member]

Not planning on going to a university.

Getting a 2 year community college first, maybe some tech school, who knows, I live for today..

As soon as I graduate HS, taking a 3-6 month road trip, cross country. Give me time to think, explore the US.
