How Is Math 1B curved?

<p>bahahahaha omg that would be creepy cuz kitty’s ex boyfriend lives right next door XP and she hates him omg.</p>

<p>sorry kitty kat Im spilling all your secrets hahaha im gonna wait til you read this. you have no idea, being so absorbed in your damn paper… aaaahhh you are so cute when you frown like that and wiggle your nose. hahah so darn cute. btw im not gonna give you your ethernet chord for a while. :stuck_out_tongue: oh i guess you have no way of finding that part out… i better tell you</p>

<p>Little do you know…I’m kat’s ex.</p>

<p>nah you cant be. he’s a stupid freshman and a jackass and a ******* etc etc. and he is not gonna start taking math until next semester. and he’s a whimp and a grade whore so he’s gonna take the easier math classes instead. so unless you fit all of the above, then no. </p>

<p>oh kitty dont you love how we are both taking math even though we dont need it. such idiots. at least you will get a pass whereas i will get a np.</p>

<p>Oh my god >:O you are dead as soon as you finish writing the paper. I can’t believe it. It’s a college forum not facebook gossip!!! you are not getting the cable for the rest of the time you are here. I should probably tell you that.</p>

<p>I feel like I’m on a pseudo-episode of Gossip Girl. OMG.</p>

<p>lol no i failed persson’s test, as in less than 50%, prob somewhere around the avg if i’m lucky. it was horrible</p>

<p>my quiz avg is like around 7. dunno what grade that will be.</p>

<p>how are you guys doing?</p>

<p>lol hopefully we’re around the average…</p>

<p>uummm… haha im doing really bad. it’s a good thing this forum is anonymous. :stuck_out_tongue: umm quiz is around a 4 or 3. class av is like 6 or 7. umm I got a solid D on the first midterm, and got less than 50% on this last one. yeah im dead. pretty much.</p>

<p>hahaha batman if you think that you are in pseudo gossip girl already then your life must be very peaceful and perhaps *cough boring. lol. you would die if you know the entire story. hehehe but i must gossip no more or I’ll wake up without a head…wait that means i won’t wake up at all. haha</p>

<p>man i wish i never went to take the midterm… should have just made the final worth 65%.</p>

<p>dude some guy apparently took midterm 2, and didn’t turn it in. what a freaking genius i should have done that -____-</p>

<p>I failed the 2nd midterm, too. It is not really so hard when I look at it again. Anyway, does anyone know what would happen to me if I failed the course? I guess I could repeat it for one time.
Actually, I’m not confident any longer to get a good grade in this class. I’m wondering if I can intentionally get a D or F, then repeat it next semester or summer. C sth or could dramatically drop down the GPA. But D and F would permanently be in the transcript. I’m concerning my graduate study. Would the D and F affect other professional schools except the law schools?</p>

<p>the midterm made me T_T</p>

<p>hahah blueducky. I almost did the same thing. But when I was about to do it, I felt bad, like I was cheating. </p>

<p>Me too, JteH, me too :cry: I never knew Berkeley math was so darn difficult.</p>

<p>I’m getting like a 6 average on the quizzes. A C- on the very first midterm. And this one… argh I don’t even feel like talking about it.</p>

<p>kitkatz, did you wish you were at Pton instead when you saw that C-?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>The material is the same, it’s the mandated curve that is brutal. Across the Bay, for example, the same quiz mean would be a B, as it would at the Ivies. The publics flunk out kids, which is virtually impossible at HYPS. Heck, Stanford even did away with F’s – they don’t exist.</p>

<p>hahaha dont we love berk berk guys? let’s all just switch to be a philosophy major and sit around and think about stuff and then eat.</p>

<p>uhuh loving berk berk :p</p>

<p>That thought did flash through my head. But nothing I can do now, especially since my GPA’s screwed up and I can’t transfer or anything. So… I’m just going to have to learn how to fail with dignity and love berkeley despite these ridiculous classes :p</p>

<p>btw the grade breakdown is out. Unbelievable. 13 out of 35 was the average. That was a ridiculous test.</p>

<p>^^It’s all about the SD! As long as you are one+ SD above the mean, you are golden…</p>

<p>psh i don’t even think i can get 14 now. </p>

<p>yea this test was worse than my physics 7a one. haha. that one had an avg of 44/100</p>

<p>nah i still love berk. even if berk gives me a 3.0 this semester. it’s a higher standard, and i can’t just hate berk for me not being up for the challenge.</p>

<p>that’s what the kids who suicided thought. and look where they ended up. oh wait…</p>

<p>heh no anybody who kill themselves over getting a 3.0 is dumb</p>
