C in AP Bio...

<p>Who here is struggling biology?</p>

<p>We got the exam Monday, and I just sent my teacher an e-mail about this....I am usually a pretty good student. In fact, I managed an A last semester. However, we only really had a couple tests this quarter...all of which had a horrible class average. So im sure that many ppl are in the same position as me.</p>

<p>Only thing is though, THEY are seniors.,...so they arent nearly as worried about grades as much as I need to be as a junior.</p>

<p>Idk what to do, I am DYING to hear back from my teacher...this is so frustrating. I have never recieved a C in a class in my life, even on a mid-quarter report (thsee dont go on transcripts)</p>

<p>I am FREAKING OUT</p>

<p>Do your teachers do stuff after the ap exam is over that counts toward ur grades? I am seriously hoping and worrying. FML.</p>

<p>I’m also a junior taking Ap Biology. I got a C in the class last semester, currently looking at my grade online… whats posted is all messed up and my teacher claims it will be fix by the end of the year. I would really like to know my actuall grade, hopefully it goes up with other work, and extra credit.</p>

<p>^do you guys have stuff that counts towards ur grade even after the exam?</p>

<p>i am not sure if I do or not so thats making me SO nervous.</p>

<p>Although, we do got a final left to take</p>

<p>I know in my class we have a research paper worth 50% of our 4Q grade along with 2 Labs and maybe a test, plus we do get extra-credit.</p>

<p>I mean my teacher does not even use the Ap curve, she just is a really nice grader. I hade an 86 Average last quarter in tests and i got an A</p>

<p>My teacher never curve grades</p>

<p>yeah. i hope we have a paper or project or someting but idk…
ughh</p>

<p>hows the ap prep coming along for u guys?</p>

<p>Same here! Except I had a C+ last semester, a C third term, and currently an 80. We haven’t gotten much graded work because we’ve been prepping for the exam. He’s not giving us a final exam - thank god! But he is making us doing lab 6 and projects and it’ll count. I’m hoping for a B+/A- fourth term. Prepping hasn’t been bad. My teacher told us to calm down and always keep a test taking strategy in mind. I’ve been reviewing functional groups and so far, I actually am starting to like biology for once. LOL</p>

<p>that sounds good.</p>

<p>Yeah, i guess biology is truly a difficult class. good luck to you all for the exam</p>
