Plus I have my PPL Oral tomorrow! And my stupid roommate has no courtesy and decided to play video games with the volume up hella-loud.
 
Bahh. @ Borhos final. The first 50 questions werent very hard. The new stuff = :argue:

I came into the final having a 77.5% and I better not lose my C and have to retake it. I wanted to get a B (needed an 85% on the final to do this) but I dont think it happened. :|

This semester has been a semester from hell.
I think I need to change my approach drastically for next semester. Stuff I was doing in High School is not coming close to working for me. I am not meeting my standards by a long shot.

It sucks how you cant just study the weekend before a test and do fine. arghghgh or at least I cant.
 
Prof Marshall is very intelligent, but I learned very little from his class. Seemed like every class we would get the quarter result from the sim, take a quiz straight from the book, and then leave. The class was also very unorganized. He had some medical difficulties toward the end of the semester that he couldn’t help, but I expected a lot more from the class.

really though, thats a good observation to make. for most people, a "highschool style" learning approach is not sufficient for college.

use this semester as a test-run, and adjust next semester accordingly. as long as you "survive" this semester you should be fine.

best of luck! see you in the spring
 
Well I was dissapointed with my performance on the 221 final, a 77 but still got a B in the class. I didn't show up for the last half of Borho's class, pre-clicker days and still managed a B. But I can see meteorology being a dry subject for those not interested.
 
Finals aren't so bad...but then again, I'm taking super easy courses.

The way I see it is, if I'm sitting in the middle of a grade, like 85%, then no need to stress over the test, because no matter how I do on it, I'm still going to earn a B.

You're stealing my line. :p
That's why I review for tests the night before. No need to kill myself. I like enjoying college. :p

Thanks man. Thats the plan. Going to start outlining the chapters before I get to class instead of when I am studying for the exams. I have a pretty heavy load of GERs next semester so it should be a good change to raise my gpa where it should be.

I also need to get more organized and make better use of my time.

I am finishing up 102, then I have english, communications, physics 150, math 103, intro to air traffic control, and that 1 credit isys online class

I really wanted to take sociology because this teacher is suppose to be pretty easy but I cant make it work. :mad:
 
ok i know i sound like a meat head here but i broker deals with my prof before the semester starts. i say to them that i will never use this in life and that i am taking the class because i have to. i ask them what is that least amount of work i have to do while still getting a b or an a. they usually tell me to do a paper and not miss a class. i only have to take one final this semester and that is because it is a major course and i dont broker deals on those classes. just thought i would throw my experience in here. :)
