<p>i think im going to fail the second term of my ap physics c course and i was wondering if i would be rescinded if i did fail the course. its not a grad requirement, but i AM going into SEAS (even though i want to take the course again anyway). any thoughts?</p>
<p>fail as in get an F? probably yes? or at least CU will look into it, i would say.</p>
<p>worst case, you will have to take the course over the summer
physics c is hard and im sure they know that</p>
<p>every year…</p>
<p>Here we go again Epa. This is exactly the kind of passive-aggressive (maybe because you don’t have the balls to be overtly aggressive) disrespect for people that makes it hard for you to make any real friends.</p>
<p>Maybe it’s called subtlety. Intelligent people realize that overly aggressive remarks aren’t really funny on the hearer or fun on the sayer, that’s why they invented something called wit. It’s more like a secret language, a special code if you will, that they use to communicate amongst themselves.</p>
<p>Disrespecting people is the same in substance and intent whether you do it subtly or not. The only difference is that someone who does it subtly has the option of back-pedaling and pretending that they weren’t being malicious, when really it’s just that they’re afraid of instigating a real confrontation. More than anything else, this fear of being direct with your language symbolizes an aversion to conflict. It’s a way for people who would lose in a fight to express their disdain without taking the risk of being on the receiving end of retaliation. </p>
<p>Also, since when has intelligence been synonymous with passive-aggressiveness? Typically, passive-aggressive has just been a sign of cowardice and/or weakness.</p>
<p>it’s ok guys i didnt fail!</p>
<p>^That’s great to hear. 
However, just out of curiosity, is there any protocol students who fail courses during senior year must follow in order to explain their grade (and therefore avoid getting their acceptance rescinded)?</p>
