My last exam was a week ago yesterday, and I just got my grades today. I got three A's and two AB's. My GPA for the semester was 3.8, which is the highest it's ever been since 7th grade ( :( ) and my cumulative GPA for two years of college is about a 3.7. I win! I'm better than all of you! :(

I got A's in Math, Astronomy, and News editing. I knew I was going to get A's in math and Astronomy, because I did good on all the tests, but I had no idea what I was getting in journalism. I must have done pretty good on the final. :(

I got AB's in Creative Writing and Honors Philosophy. I should have gotten an A in Creative Writing, so I'm somewhat disappointed, but I didn't know what I would get in philosophy because my original professor had to leave halfway into the semester cause she had a bun in the oven and the new professor was all foreign and shit and changed the syllabus but never told us what he changed it to.

Story of my life. :(

What the hell is an AB? Is it the same as a B+?

I got three A's, an A+ and a B+ this semester, and my GPA is 3.99 now. If it wasn't for that B+, I could have 4.0 right now. :(

I guess you never heard of an AB then. :(

only because you're not taking full advantage of the opportunities afforded you. :lookingoverteacherglasses

grading scale, or something like this:

100 - 93 is an A
92 - 89 is an AB
88 - 83 is a B
82 - 78 is a BC

and it goes online like that, I think.

I don't post as much as I used to, sadie. :(

Bobo, your grading system is as strange as as inches and Fahrenheit. >:

100-90 = A+ (4.5)
89-80 = A (4.0)
79-75 = B+ (3.5)
74-70 = B (3.0)
69-65 = C+ (2.5)
64-60 = C (2.0)
59-50 = D (1.0)
<49 = F (hahahaha you have to take the course again! :( )

We should start a petition for grading system parity. :(

You know how teachers always talk about those people who can never study, never read the book, and never try very hard and take the test and get a 98, and how if you aren't one of those people you will need to buy the book and study for the tests? Well, I'm like one of those people.

And I wishI was a blob-shaped piece of hard candy. >:

You shouldn't have worn big hats ... and you should have turned your cell phone off ... and you shouldn't have talked so much during the movie. >:

Things can be good, and things can be done well, but they aren't done good. >:

Sorry, but that's one of my biggest pet peeves ever, especially when seemingly intelligent people do it. :(

Do people ever get bitter about you not studying and still doing well on tests and things? I always had friends saying, "I hate you," after we got grades back. :/

They used to, but last year I wrote papers for other people at a rate of 10 bucks per page, at the lowest a guarenteed C. I timed myself, and I can write a page of pure but aesthetically pleasing bullshit in about 8 minutes. Nobody was complaining then.

I stopped doing that though. I'm too lazy to write my own papers; I would never actually get around to doing other peoples. Now when I don't study and get A's, my friends say "good for you."

I'm in homeschooling and going to be in my senior year of high school next year. But I was taking Spanish, English and Calculus as supplementary courses this semester. I got an A in English and Spanish, and a B in Calculus, but I'm taking Calculus again next year cuz the public schools don't believe me or something, so My GPA, through a loophole mind you, is a 4.0 for this year. :)

I also got a C- in cock sucking from my dad for homeschooling, but I'm retaking it in "summer homeschooling". My work never stops. >:
