Thought I would start a new thread on my next class coming up. I know Delta...you have already taken this class, and have commented elsewhere about some of the requirements.

Any words of wisdom you and others can share whould be appreciated.

Yes...I already psychologically resigned myself to a B for this class.

Are the quizzes still 20 questions? If so, when I took it, after quiz #1, the quizzes were curved. And yeah, getting an A in this class can be a royal pain, but you can do it!!!

The quizzes are only 10 questions - that's what makes it tough. Getting even one wrong hurts but getting 2 wrong gives you a grade of B minus. With quizzes representing over 36% of the grade, you need to be perfect with both the discussion board (easy to do) and the assignments (harder to do) to even have a chance, especially since you need 95% for an A (every other class has been 94%).

Oh…If I remember correctly, or quiz value was the same, but we had 20 not 10 questions.

10 questions 20 minutes. I know the quiz last week (at least mine) came straight out of the chapters. No trick questions. But, it would be impossible to memorize all the stuff in the chapters to retain for the quizz.

I have found that each of the classes with OU have its quirks and dislikes. This one...is tough on the grading for sure!

Okay...good, bad or ugly...my windshield survey has been uploaded and submitted.

Yeah...weekend for me!

I thought this week's quiz was KILLER compared to last week. Don't feel so good about. Especially with how heavy they are weighing in with our grades...

Yeeeeeaahhh...I think I just bombed that quiz.... :( It's never a good sign when you read a question and think, "Did I even READ about that?!"

I also have that sick feeling :( I tried to review the questions afterwards with the book and couldn't come to a conclusion for some of them!

Yep, same here. Pray for a curve...:confused:

I have to say I dislike this class more than the statistics class.
