What do you get as a normal grade in each class?

Post Reply New Topic

Unfortunately, I get Bs.
I got a C on a Spanish test today, and I made four wounds on my hand to remind myself to try harder next time.
I know it's not healthy, but my OCD kicks in and I can't help it.

My grades this semester:

Biochemistry II: A-
General Physics II: B-
Human Nature in the Western Tradition (Honors course): A-

I usually got Cs and maybe the odd D or a B. Im not dumb I just realy sucked at tests. In maths i was one of the best during class, but i got into uni

How can you get a 0%? I'm just wondering

By not taking the tests, dropping classes or never showing up, etc.

I knew of some kids who would do that. XD

A+ averege with an ocasional B+ but then probably because I am homeschooled and don't have all the discractions as public school. In public school my averge grade was F-.

As promised, my AP test results for this year. They are out of 5.

AP Calculus-BC: 5 (also a 5 on the AB subscore)
AP Chemistry: 4
AP Physics B: 5
AP US Government and Politics: 5
AP English Literature: 5
AP English Language: 5
AP World History: 4
AP European History: 4
AP Psychology: 5

Combined with my four tests from last year, these results are good enough to earn me 63 credits- my advisor told me earlier today that I am basically a junior. I am disappointed in my poor result on European History, though, since I did study for that one somewhat (ie spent a week before the test to try to learn the material). My Chem score was expected; I never bothered to learn chemistry. World History I didn't care about, but was somewhat surprised to have done so badly on it.

Us non-braniacs would generally refer to those scores as "tEh r0x0rZ."

But seriously, congrats!

Second year in a row not getting honor roll...I missed it by 1.5%
I don't understand it...I know I aced the summative for English, and I didn't struggle AT ALL for the exam, yet I got 74%, and I had an 80% before the exam
*grumbles*

College I graduated with a 4.0 in my major, 3.88 overall average.

When I was in elementary school I did poorly for a while, failed several marking periods. I didn't learn to read until I was 7 and I didn't speak in school until I was 12. In high school it got better I was on the honor roll every semester.

Well for my GCES I was extremely undisciplined and lazy, unfortunately lol. Did 0 revision or exam prep, still managed to finished with an A star, several As and Bs and a C. Wish I'd been more disciplined since I know I could've pulled off much better results but I'm still happy with what I got especially considering what I put in.

Can someone explain what college credits are please? (I'm from England)

In most American universities, students earn "credits" towards graduation reqquirements- usually about three for a normal academic class, one credit for a lab, etc. A normal schedule for uni students includes around 15-18 credit hours in each semester.
