how do i cope with a C?

Pre-College Topics High School Life
1

<p>so i have a C in math</p>

<p>i'm now suddenly incredibly nervous, esp. now that the quarter has ended...the only thing i'm think about these days is precalc....can anyone help me?</p>

<p>imagine an asian male w/ 'my-child-must-have-an-A' parents living in a house w/ sharp objects around</p>

<p>this is my first C</p>

2

<p>OMG
same here D+ in precalc
angry but supporting Russian parents
lets meet and cut ourselves together lol</p>

3

<p>^lol</p>

<p>anyways backstory:
for a while i didn’t do any of my hw
for a specific reason, my math teacher decided to subtract 15 pts from my last test
last year, i slept thrgh alg2, did 0 hw and got an A- (and that’s after my B- final)</p>

4

<p>At stake (other than my home life) is my membership in the engineering academy…they kick students with C-minuses or below in any class out</p>

<p>I had to go through an admissions process with an interview and essay and letters of rec and all and i really don’t want to fail b/c so many of my friends are in the academy which has a separate academic path from the rest of the school which means i might be separated from my friends for many hours</p>

<p>thats scary siglio
well, do a lot of practice. that’s the most important thing in math</p>

6

<p>^ya i did more hw in alg2 than now in precalc so maybe that’s my problem</p>

7

<p>sigh…well i how should i deal the situation mentally?</p>

8

<p>Cry yourself to sleep or something</p>

9

<p>^no bueno…</p>

<p>lacrimans animo magnum bonum est
Lolololol that’s the extent of my 2 years of AP latin… urlakwheflwa since I know no spanish… haha.</p>

11

<p>^you suck :b</p>

12

<p>lol :[</p>

<p>Do you’re homework and don’t over study for tests. I know that sounds weird, but you can study to much and like freak out. I have a 96 in Pre-AP Precal, and I all do is my homework. I also flip through the chapter before a test.</p>

<p>You go into a corner and start playing games.</p>

15

<p>“i slept thrgh alg2, did 0 hw”</p>

<p>“I do less homework now then I did in alg2”</p>

<p>???, get off your duff boy…</p>

16

<p>^learn to understand exaggerations roflmao</p>

17

<p>To be honest, you can’t. Consider suicide.</p>

18

<p>get an A next quarter and an A on the midterm you’ll get a B+ as a semester grade.</p>

19

<p>@raider: we actually have a semester system, so teachers aren’t allowed to do that (quarters are reporting periods only)</p>

<p>@titan: it’s scary how some people do consider suicide…my friend knows someone who did</p>

<p>Well it’s not the end of the world. You are what a sophomore? Get an A second semester and hope that you can pull out with an A overall. Or settle for the B if that happens. A B isn’t too bad, just get As in your other classes.</p>

<p>Not that big of a deal, but you do need to bring that up, particularly if you don’t want to hindered by a poor GPA when you apply to college.</p>
