<p>just checked online and my Italian 4 teacher posted grades for that class...I got a 95 so that looks like one more A to add to the pile. Two more classes to go....I did have a nightmare that I got a B- in my Syntax class though.....lol. B- isn't that bad based on letter grade but when all those 2.75s are factored into my GPA, it makes a difference!</p>
<p>Still don't know about biochem, as that final will be 2/5 of our total grade and I'm on the edge right now for B/A, but otherwise I'll have my second straight year of a 4.0!!</p>
<p>Math classes wouldnt have that many students....I've had about 500 in my general chemistrys and almost that many in biochem</p>
<p>wow, 500? thats a LOT! I think the most kids i had in a class was something like 150 or so.</p>
<p>I checked online and all my grades are in except my literary Italian, which the teacher said would be late due to his medical problems......the supense is killin me! I got an A+ in Syntax which is quite relieving and since thats the hardest linguistics class I ever took in my life, it feels good to have done so well. I hope to get an A in Literary Italian, and if that is the case, it will be my first semester of all As....i guess it makes up for the W I got in another course.</p>
<p>a lot of classes at penn state have upwards of 200 people in one class. </p>
<p>i never had a class with more than about 30 people in it.. most classes hovered around 10-20.</p>
<p>I did pretty well besides one class. This just supports my hate for integrals.</p>
<p>MacroEcon - A+
English - A
Anthropology - A-
Math (Calc) - C+</p>
<p>Darn this. At least I did well in Econ, being that its my major and all.</p>
<p>Two classes are confirmed so far:</p>
<p>Computers: A
Public Speaking: A</p>
<p>I should have an A in Psych and Math. English could be an A or A- depending on how that final paper went.</p>
<p>Wow, is everyone already done with the semester and home? My exams don't start until tomorrow (and why I'm on this infernal website now, I don't know) and I don't get home until next Saturday.</p>
<p>I received 3 A+ grades, 1 A, 1 B+, and 1 B. I was expecting worst, so I am pretty content right now.</p>
<p>I hate you overachieving geniuses. I will accept my 3.0 with pride. Freshman year doesn't <em>really</em> count does it? lol.</p>
<p>You have plenty of time to raise your GPA but what I got from my counselors is that it is NOT LIKE high school.</p>
<p>Your freshman grades are just as important as your junior ones since they average them into your QPA and nobody looks at individual semesters.</p>
<p>but they will look at grades in your major vs. not in your major. And I'm pretty sure grad schools understand the transition period, especially first semester.</p>
<p>I am considering law school, but I don't really care about how prestigious it is. And I do have time to raise my GPA. As long as I get into law school <em>somewhere</em> lol.</p>
<p>Intro Anthropology- B+
Intro Microcomp- C
Intro Sociology- B-
Music Appreciation-A</p>
<p>Semester GPA- 3.0</p>
<p>I could have done better in microcomp and sociology but stupid me figured I knew it all and never studied.</p>
<p>Bio II- B+
Calc II- B+
Biomedical Engineering- A
Chem II- B-
Stupid B- ruins my GPA for the whole year avg. for sem was a 3.28. Boo.</p>
<p>Wow, I looked at that grade inflation site, and the small public that I'm going to be attending jumped up pretty high.</p>
<p>came out alive, what a tough semester...</p>
<p>Organic Chem II - C+
Genetics/Cell Biology - B+
Intermediate Calculus - A-
Constitutional Law - B
Chem Research/Independent Study - A
Weight Training - Pass</p>
<p>I survived also. . .with a 2.10.</p>
<p>Got a 3.5 at Brown, what a joke my life is.</p>
<p>ehhh, extremely bad. Won't get official final grades til next week, but these are my best guesses.</p>
<p>Sociology: hopefully B...I felt really confident on the final this morning.
Calculus II: C... Final is in an hour and you can tell that I'm too tired of studying since I'm on CC...lol
Writing: C+...already got this grade last week...I'm an engineering major, so screw writing!
Physics I: C...if I'm lucky! Really bombed the 2nd midterm
Engineering Freshman Academy: Pass...such a pointless class...I'm amazed I went to every class!</p>
<p>Expected GPA: 2.45ish....:(</p>
<p>
Here at USC, the business math classes are about 100 each, while the engineering math classes are capped at 60-75.</p>
<p>Poetry: A
Intermedeate micro econ: A/A- (not entirley sure how I did on my last test... if I aced it I'll have an A and if I did mildly well I'll have an A-)
Stats I: A/A- (depends on how I do on the final which is on thursday)
Astronomy: A/A- (I took the final today and I know I have at least an A-... if I did better than a 90 on the final I'll have an A, but I'm really not sure)</p>
<p>overall I'm okay with that. I had 3 A's and one A- last semester, so I'd be a bit bumed to drop down but w/e. I'm aiming for stanford law school so everytime I see an A- that could've been an A I cringe just a little. . .</p>

But then again i go to a public school so im not buying good grades,.

</p>
<p>I think that's quite a sweeping statement.... there are a lot of private schools that cost less than public alternatives, there are also a lot of private schools that deflate grades and have large amounts of students like publics, so they are hampered when it comes to education quality.</p>
<p>Anyways, I think I did ok for Spring... predicting: A's in my business classes and A-/B+ in Psychology</p>
