Can anyone tell me...


Anxiously awaiting the results of my Statistics test.

Anxiously awaiting the results of my Statistics test.  I felt mostly ok about it, but that means nothing.

I just checked my Linear Algebra average and it's a whopping 46.  ☹️☹️☹️  I am kind of back to hoping I can drop it.  I know that if I fail it I can re-take it, but I might have to take it with the same teacher; I'm not sure, so I will check on that tomorrow.

The guy who teaches it next semester has super low ratings, though, so even if I can take a different teacher it doesn't seem like it will be any better.  I'm kind of wondering if I can just save it for later.  I'm just feeling like there is no win for me right now.  😕

I have a Linear Algebra quiz tomorrow, so I guess I'm off to study - for all the good it will do.  I'm trying not to feel discouraged, but it's just about the middle of the semester and it doesn't seem like there is much saving to be done on that grade.  Wish me all the luck and brain power, please.  I need it.  ❤

Up studying.

I talked to my Stats professor today after class.

I talked to my Stats professor today after class.  The way the points for the class are set up, it looks like I'll come out with a C if I do all of the labs (which I will), the bonus-point assignment that I signed up for (of course), AND make a 50 on the last 3 exams (which I am sure I can manage).  Anything above that and I'm headed towards a B.  Woohoo!

In that class if we don't miss an exam our final grade can replace a low test grade, so it's entirely POSSIBLE (though not probable) that I could come out with an A.  After the way this semester has gone, I'd be excited to come out with a C (which is passing for my major's purposes), but of course a B would be amazing.  I am doing ok in my two CS classes, so really it's Linear Algebra that I have to worry about.

So I'm finally starting to feel better about being at JSU.  I've walked around enough that I know where things are, I've figured out how a lot of stuff works, and I've been able to find a lot of help and support when I needed it.  Still haven't heard back about dropping a class and keeping scholarships, but since I found out that my GPA can take a temporary hit I'm not freaking out.

So with that, I'm off to finish my Stats labs and make sure I'm ready for the test we have on Thursday.  I have a Linear Algebra quiz on Friday, so I'll freak out about that once I find out what's on it tomorrow.  LOL
