I decided to clean my room today and in doing so came to calculating all my grades. It ends up I'm really not that stupid. I suggest you do the same it may make you feel a lot better or at the least tell you how bad it really is. lol
I was gonna give you the statistical breakdown here, but then I thought that would make me an ass. Needless to say I'm not failing anything or at least wasn't failing until this week. I'm actually doing much better in Propulsion than I thought, the mean on the first exam was 43% I got a 60.5%. I also thought I failed my finite element (grad class) exam but I've actually got a 92% average in the class right now. I also discovered that the reason I thought I was doing so poorly in lab was because it was out of 90pts instead of a 100. I did manage to f'up my Controls exam, but my homework should help smooth that one out. It ends up I might have a pretty happy report card in 3-4 weeks.

god...exams....I seem to remember those days...Now all I'm worrying about is making sure a process I create is implemented very well and that Micorosuck will actually bring something to the table in the next 2 weeks at our meeting that'll be good...if all that goes well....I should be doing pretty good with life and set on my way to retirement

Then again maybe I am, apparently there wasn't much partial credit to be had in that 345 exam so now I probably have 20 of 40 points possible for "quizes." I probably need a B or better on the final another 40% chunk to avoid failing the class. I'm fucked.

OK so I've recomputed my grade and worst case scenario I'm looking at a 61.3% and potentially straight scaled. 40% is yet to be determined by the final.... So as long as I get at least 75% on that I think I should be safe. At least I hope so.... What bothers me most about this is that given my notes on the exams I'd be like 80-100% area. It's not that hard a class, I just don't seem to be getting any partial credit for simple mistakes and when there are 4 questions per tests that hurts.
