I’m aware this happens every year to many people. Raised it from a 55 to a 65 in a month, but finals f’d me up. No intention of dropping this class as I’m a prospective engineering major and I generally enjoy the class.
Applied to SLO (#1 choice), three UCs (don’t really expect to get in anyways) and a few other CSUS.
What do I do now? Do I send an email to admissions ASAP to explain my situation and see what they say?
Freshmen: If you change schools, add or drop a course, or fail to earn a C or better in a course after you submit your application, you must notify the UC Application Center by email or postal mail. Your correspondence must include your name, UC Application ID number and your signature (if you mail a letter), and will be available to all the campuses to which you applied.
Tried once, wasn’t very helpful. He’s about 70 years old. Handwriting almost impossible to read. Voice almost too low to hear. Has all the characteristics of a good teacher besides the most important one: orating and explanation skills.
Utilized friends and online resources instead but obviously wasn’t good enough.
Ain’t even tryna make excuses though. I understand it’s on me.
@NASA2014 Too bad that’s exactly how it is LOL. He’s the only calc teacher at our school lolzzzzzzzzzzz and only one that knows the stuff well enough to teach it. His program is amazing, but tough. As he always tells us, “It’s not about the math.”
