<p>I got an A, A-, B+. What did you guys get?</p>
<p>that's pretty good for your first semester...</p>
<p>and there's no need to show off what some of us got ;)</p>
<p>I'm a little disappointed, but things could've been a lot worse.</p>
<p>I got a C+, B+, A-, A-</p>
<p>The only thing that gets me is that C+ came in the only class (math 16a) that mattered for my major, which is pretty much not gonna happen ;) (Haas or Econ)</p>
<p>Heh I feel the same way, a few more -'s than I hoped for</p>
<p>A+, A, A-, A-, A-, Pass</p>
<p>ARGH I got a 319/400 for math 53, when the A cutoff was at 320</p>
<p>Slicmlic2001, i heard things get harder after your first semester, do you not think so? Im an intended business major and i heard it gets tougher</p>
<p>A/B+/B-/P </p>
<p>I should of done better...ahh i guess i'll be able to study more in the spring since i will have more free time.</p>
<p>who was ur math 16a teacher?</p>
<p>I was so lucky to get a B+ in physics 7a. Thought I had failed the final too. Physics for scientists and engineers is probably one of the hardest courses but apparently the curve was extremely generous.</p>
<p>You know, things get HARDER in terms of coursework, but funny enough- your grades actually improve! You study a LOT more, you have a lot more work, but after your first, and ESPECIALLY after your second semester, you start to figure out how to get good grades. My first semester I had decent grades, second semester I had respectable grades, but by my third semester everything seemed to have fallen into place, even though I was taking increasingly difficult courses. My best advice for first year students would be to just weather the storm first semester, things get better after that. Which is why I completely agree with schools like MIT that force students to take all their first semester classes on a P/NP basis. After your first semester you're more comfortable with college level coursework and balancing your social life with academics, and are thus better able to do well in your courses.</p>
<p>Hope that helps :)</p>
<p>I cost myself a couple of A's due to procrastination. I think I have, or at least I hope I have, learned a lesson about how to manage my time and how to study the right way!</p>
<p>And HopefullyHaas: I don't know the person's full story, but my friend told me that her friend got a C in a class and still got into Haas. So I hope that is comforting, if you're still going that route.</p>
<p>Thanks man. Only thing is though that a C isnt so bad, but it was a C in a prereq (math 16a), and that's what'll be bad. I'll have to do well in math 16b to cancel that out.</p>
<p>My math16a teacher was poonen. It wasnt a very hard class. I understood all the material. But I didn't attack the final the right way (I think I got a C) and I didn't take care of my business in that class like I should've throughout the semester. I definitely earned that C+. Definitely learned a lot from it though, and this failure will definitely help me in the future.</p>
<p>One important thing to keep in mind is that one course isn't going to make or break your econ/haas admissions. If you get As or A-'s in your other pre-reqs and still maintain a solid GPA, then you still stand a good shot at getting accepted.</p>
<p>A,A,A,B+,P</p>
<p>I'm a pre-med. Ahhh.... stupid Comparative Literature R1A.... I hate R&C class with a passion. Hopefully, I won't take R1B for a couple of years.</p>
<p>A/A/A+/P</p>
<p>Hell Yes.
I'm off to a great start.</p>
<p>hehe clapyourfeet, what'd you get your A+ in?</p>
<p>Any idea what percentage of the class gets an A+? I always thought it was near impossible to get an A+ but a bunch of my friends and I all got an A+ in at least one class...</p>
