<p>I feel like crap.</p>
<p>I have a 75 in Stats AP for my semester grade...how much is this going to hurt me? It stinks....I know it isn't going to help me. I just keep wondering, what if I get a 5...does that cushion the ugly C (my first ever)...)</p>
<p>Uh... if you're gettin a 75 in stats, good luck getting that 5.</p>
<p>Seriously, AP stats was probably the easiest class I took in high school. I honestly think I could have studied the curriculum for about a week and then gotten a 5. </p>
<p>Getting a C for your semester grade doesn't hurt you if the colleges don't see it. If they do, though, it might hurt you. How'd you get in that situation? Senioritis? ;)</p>
<p>Colleges do see the semster grades.....</p>
<p>I just don't get the problems our college book is asking!....Gosh...:-(</p>
<p>I can get a 5, but now I'm having doubts.</p>
<p>I feel so dumb because everyone on this board thinks it's the easiest course. It is my lowest grade...EVER....:-(</p>
<p>That sucks if the grade is going in on your midyear report. </p>
<p>What is it that is so hard about the class for you? Do you have trouble with math in general?</p>
<p>That is the thing...I don't have trouble with the class, it's the tests. My teacher is basically not teaching us. I know it is a college class, but still, he literally teaches NOTHING on what the tests are over. They are mostly word problems and such....ugh! :-(</p>
<p>Actually colleges dont see the semester grades if youve already been accepted somewhere, just the final</p>
<p>I'm a junior, they are gonna see it. My school reports semester and final grades.</p>
<p>Are you completely sure you cant bring it up at all? If you study AP questions and such for stats you CAN do well on the stats test, which will definately help your case for your C</p>
<p>It is final as of today (I got a BAD grade on the final).</p>
<p>I feel your pain glucose. Today has been so crappppy... I turned in a quiz that was pretty much blank in AP Stat today. It was on a section that we were supposed to read last night. I was working on two literature papers last night and took a break on the couch and fell asleep so I woke up on the couch this morning w/some of my homework unfinished.
I also found out I am going to have a C in IB Spanish. My first C in spanish ever!!!! I have been so depressed. I keep thinking I will never get into college now...</p>
<p>It stinks....but I guess I have to really pull myself together, and buckle down to prove that I can do it!...:)</p>
<p>Does any of your other classmates have A's or B's in that class. Maybe it would be wise to hook up with them.</p>
<p>I also am going to have to buckle down for Spanish.</p>
<p>Tomorrow-or should I say today, I am going to Barnes and Noble's and buying a Spanish workbook and a new dictionary. I will make a ton of vocab flashcards and will commit to reading a section of a spanish newspaper everyday.</p>
<p>Hey Gluscose, where are you at in the AP Stat?? We are on discrete and continuous random variables...that whole geometric, binomial topic area.</p>
<p>We are past that in Statistics. We are past confidence levels; I don't know where we are exactly (with finals, and all...). I'm going to order the Barron's Stats AP book and study my @$$ off. I need to. I really don't care about the grade in the class, but I'm worried about the score on the test.</p>
<p>shaddix, what level spanish are you in? when i was in french 4 and AP french, i found it very very useful to read articles online from french newspapers and to read books in french. i also read 'the count of monte cristo' in french, which was a challenge but also very interesting.</p>
<p>I am in IB Spanish 6. We are reading spanish literature, but my grammar has gotten really rusty so I need to get a workbook. I had the same idea that reading articles would help, so I am going to try to read one article a day.</p>
<p>Since we are focused more on literature and less on grammar-it shows in my grade, so I am going to give myself a little review.</p>
<p>Grades aren't a pure indicator of how well you do. Sometimes the classes are just hard, or you just are sick of school. I remember when I was in high school I did very poorly in calculus (C-/D+ range in calc BC) but managed to get a good AP score.</p>
<p>True, grades aren't always the best indicator, but mid-year reports are coming up. If I could pull off a decent grade on the mid-term exam then I could have a B for the semester.</p>
<p>i understand...the teacher's teaching style matters a lot. actually, it matters so much!! just deal with it: )</p>
