I definitely got too full of myself in my Business Law class with regards to Exam 3. I got 75%. It's still passing and I'm still passing the class, but man...that was a blow to my ego lol

I was less than a percentage point away from an A (90%) in the class, but with this 75 on Exam 3, I'm now firmly in middle B (84% that's less than a percentage point from an 85%) territory.

Earlier today I did Exam 4. I don't know when I will get the grade for that. On December 17 I have the final. It's ONE QUESTION WORTH 200 POINTS!

But...she said that since she grades on a curve, any student [that] receives a 90% on the final exam and did not have enough points to achieve a letter grade of an A [(which is 90-100%)] in this course, that student will still receive an A in this course.

This grading system provides each student [with] the most equitable opportunity to earn an A in this course by learning from past mistakes. Good Luck.

I need to get a 180 on the final and I will likely get an A in the class! I will be happy with my high B in the course because these exams have been so stressful for me...especially with waiting to know the grade on them.



Time to wash the dishes and clean off my bed. I have an early start tomorrow. I have to be at my Dr. for labwork at 8:45 am. Thankfully the medical building is a 5-minute walk from where I live, so leaving at 8:30 gives me plenty of time to account for the lame street signals around here.

Need to settle down and study for the next test.

Yup. This week I'm going to concentrate on the last 3 chapters in my account class because I'm struggling in this class more than Business law...and the final is on Monday Then this weekend and next week, I will shift to business law for the final on the 17th.

Now I'm wishing I would have done that extra credit that was offered in November, but I completely forgot until the day before it was due. There would have been no way for me to write 500 quality words in 1 day discussing the 1st and 2nd and 4th freedoms guaranteed in the Bill of Rights and how they apply to the current state of the country and whether the government is overreaching.

But that 100 point cushion would be nice right about now. *sighs*

Boy, I remember doing the finals dance when I was in school. The last year was tough because I was working full time in the Scene Shop and carrying 21 units with a 4.0 GPA. I still don't know when I slept.
