And DrAcula -- you're clueless. There are some legitimately tough courses at A&M. Try enrolling in "Fourier Series and Wavelets" or the first two semester of classical Greek. If you match the grades I had in those classes, then you can give me crap about the courses I Q-dropped or failed.

---

I still can't believe all the crap i'm getting from you guys. I guess calling me an arrogant ******* justifies you failing your classes. Or it might just be for fun - which i'm okay with.

I have no doubt that if you truly gave it your all in hopes of not failing you could. Effort is all relative and just because your definition is studying for 3 days before your test doesn't mean it's the only one. If you had a 70 after your 3rd test, and you really didn't want to fail, you could spend 4 hours a day studying for 3 weeks to make sure you ace your next test, but you're not going to. This could be because you're too busy or you just don't want to. Either way you have the opportunity it's what you make of it.

Acula you are either trolling or a colossal poon

D math 251 web based

B'd them the second time around

2 C's
1 Q-drop
0 D's and F's

Q-dropped Math 151 and took it that Summer at HCC. Ended up pretty much teaching the class and made almost a 100.

Made a D in History of Naval Seapower. 90% of the class were CT's and Rev was in there.

That's all I got. Everything else was C or better.

I still don't know how I got a C in Math 152 and Pys 218. By far the two hardest classes I took at A&M (that was 12 years ago, so not sure how they are these days).

When I used one of my Q-Drops, I went in to give the prof a heads-up. He gave me this speech about, "maybe college isn't for you."

---

In the STAT 211 class I Q-dropped, the prof gave the class a similar speech after the first exam because there were many that failed. He said something like: "If you couldn't pass this exam, you should get out of whatever engineering/science major you are in."

I just ignored that moron and continued on as an electrical engineering major. I never used anything from that class in anything related to my major. As a Ph.D. student in electrical engineering, I have only used probability stuff for one class, and I am making an A.

Intro. to Logic - 1st time a F

2nd time - I got C and was happy for that.

The first day in class the prof walks in a says welcome to the second hardest class on campus.

Got a D in PHYS 218 first semester. Went in with a B and came out of the final with a D. Retook and got a B.

Q-dropped MATH 152 then took it in summer school where I got an A.

Never had any problems with any classes after than and I'm a senior engineering student as we speak.

I used Grade Exclusion for my D in Math 142 my second semester. I took Phil 240 instead and had no problems with it. I should have been able to cut it in 142 because I made an A in 141... but I just never could get it to "click".

I Q-dropped Spanish 3 this semester... after the first and second quizzes that I made 50's on, the professor wrote "Maybe you should consider q-dropping this course..." on both.

I've had a couple of C's, and will probably have 1 this semester.

141 is 7th/8th grade algebra, 142 is super-basic calculus, if I remember right... even really easy calculus is a lot different and more difficult than algebra/statistics.

141 is supposed to be pre-business calculus, and 142 business calculus

business pre-calculus rather than pre-business calculus.

lol. one of my roommates took math151 3 times, i think he passe the final time.


i q-dropped hist105 with livesay. worst class ever. there was a chance i could have passed, but i didn't want to take it

i also knew quite a few people who failed mil sci fish year

2 C's (MATH 409 and electrical physics--should have made Bs, but I slacked off)
1 Q-drop
