Anyone Else Seeing Their Grades Drop?

<p>The quality of my work is dropping dramatically but, not surprisingly, my grades aren’t dropping.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Below are the best and worst case scenarios for a student who Guesses on all problems.</p>

<p>The probability of scoring a 3/45 with a 45 question 5 answer multiple choice quiz is
.8^42*.2^3 = 6.8056473384187861 x 10^-7</p>

<p>Probability Cumulatively for anything at or below 3:
5.7848002376559682 x 10^-5</p>

<p>The probability of scoring a 3/45 on a matching quiz is
42!/45! = 1/(45)(44)(43) = 1.17453606 </p>

<p>My grades dropped last quarter (low 90s) but it’s mainly b/c of pop quizzes that I’m never prepared for or some stupid mistake.</p>

<p>@failboat: but it wasnt multiple choice, you see. it was free response along with some proofs, which greatly increases the chance of getting only 3/45 points</p>

<p>My English grade has dipped down from like a 94 to maybe a 90, possibly a high 80. I got a D+ on a history test the other day, so I went from like an A to maybe A-/B+. Spanish went up a few points, most likley a 95-ish now, and Chemistry is a high 90. Math has gone up to a B, up from a C last quarter. Grades have dipped oddly I guess, but 1 test and some English hw assignments blew up my grades :frowning: This quarter flew by, and I’m scared about college admissions now lol</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Alas, I failed to account for that little anomaly, we can now conclude that your teacher is indeed a ******bag (or you guys are lazy, the former’s less hypocritical on my part :D)</p>

<p>Yep, me. D: This semester I currently have a C- in English, a C+ in AP Calc and a borderline A (90) in AP Physics…</p>

<p>eff.</p>

<p>EDIT: I’m a junior D:</p>

<p>Relax fellow brothers and sisters of the Senior order, you have obviously contacted Senioritus, this is fully expected and you must embrace it while you can.</p>

<p>Yeah, I’ve gotten owned first semester junior year and am continuing to get owned, by both CC standards and regular standards.</p>

<p>Eh, absolute, unparalleled laziness is finally starting to pwn me. Oh well, I’ll see what I can do.</p>

<p>Mine have dropped… I don’t want to admit it, but even though I feel I am studying a lot and doing my homework… I think that I have succumbed to senioritis… <em>shudders</em></p>

<p>My Grade in Health is 99.7, not 100 :(. LOL.</p>

<p>^YOU POOR POOR CHILD!</p>

<p>How will you survive?</p>

<p>I have no ****ing idea…
UPDATE: I actually have less than a B in 2 classes… :&lt;/p>

<p>Health class is more important. If you can’t get a 100 in that class that has greater implications outside of the classroom.</p>

<p>all b’s pretty much
must start caring in 3rd quarter…</p>

<p>I freaked and thought I had an 80 on a test in AP Lit today…turns out it was a quiz…</p>

<p>I swear the first time she had the assignment posted on power school (before we took it) it was labeled as TST and not QZ… >></p>

<p>My grades right now are far lolsier than any of yours. Victory is mine.</p>

<p>My grades have dropped this grading period however I feel I am doing just as well if not better this grading period because in relation to the other kids of my grade level, I am doing even better.</p>

<p>they r plummeting and i dont care hahaha</p>

<p>

Seconded !</p>
