ok guys, i failed last semester of math, therefore need a C to pass this semester, however my grade as of now is a D, i wont have enough time or brains to bring it up to a C, should i just go to summerschool, or retake it next year, i dont want to jump into more math next year and not know the crap i need to from tihs class, so what do u think, cause if i go i have to register for summerschool by june 2, so im in a bit of a pickle here, and ive never been bad at math, always an honors student, easily pulling off Bs and the occasional C, so i dunno, i just feel stupid now, and it dont feel to good either :(

Can you pull off a c? have you asked your teacher? how much time you got left? Because if not it seems you have no choice, summerschool isn't too bad and you'll always get a better grade in it.

another think you could do would be to get NICO to block you, then you would have more time to study ;)

yea well, a lot of people are failing math this year, and most are taking it again next year, as technically we are a 'year ahead', so im going to go to summerschool and get it out of hte way, i figure ill have no life tho, because i wnat to get shcool from 7-9 and then work from 9-6 and then head toward the shop if i can

now that i thin of it its is quite contradicting, huh.. but yeah if you were from my area you could just date the teacher and run away to Vegas as this has happend in my school with my friend, this has happend more than once in my school but i digress.. yeah Sumer school blows our classes are like 4hrs long 4 days a week.. so if your's isnt as bad seeing as how i think your in college, i say summer school..

yea, this is the first time ive ever even had to consider summerschool, my lowest grade till now was a C, even with my F, i still have a 3.533 gpa, so im not doing that badly, i just dont wanna go to summerschool, but dont wanna take it next year, im going to go to my grandfather (genuis!!) to help study for finals, hopefully he can help me out, i will cry tears of joy if i dont have to go to summerschool

noooo, New orleans pub school system is garbage, i'm sure all around LA is much better

If you have a 3.5 you shouldn't be failing math, unless you're just bad at it.. find a tutor?

yea our system isnt great, i go to riverdale highschool, its not a bad school actually, and until now ive made great grades, but my gpa is a 3.533 on my last transcript, and i made an F last 9weeks and im probably going to pull off a D this time, but we're on a block schedule (4lcasses a day) so our teachers have to cram so much crap into so lil time, individually i know ALL of it, but when we have a test that covers everytihng from the last 2 weeks (and we'learn' new stuff EVERYDAY) i just cant remember how to do ALL of it RITE THEN

our system plain out sucks2. my teacher gave me a 70 on a test that i didn't get finsih before exams started so i passed mtah with a 72!!!! ihavve to take 2 englishes and 2maths plus an history and i am still gonna be three creidts short of graduating. but see there is a school that offers make up courses for 45 dollars so i might do that. that way plans fo me moving to alabama or kentucky won't get screwed up.and i can get the hell outta here. i will most likely move back but thats when i go to get married and have kids i want them raised here cuz everyone knows me where i live because my dad is a well know person. but right now i juts need to get away.
