I took my A&P final exam last night and I didn't know a single answer. :cry: I need at least 21% to earn a "C" in the class and I'm freaking out. I have no confidence right now and I worry that I did worse than 21%. It was a 100 question test and I was uncertain even on the things that I studied. The questions were confusing and could have been written in a foreign language. I should have my grade sometime today or tomorrow but I don't think I can wait that long. Please send some encouragement my way. I had a "B" average going into this final and I don't want to retake this class. I'll be happy with a "C" at this point.

I think you'll get a 21 no problem... especially if it's out of 100 questions. I've had my fair share of tests where I didn't know anything and just guessed on the majority, and I did much better than that on them. (: Good luck!

Good luck! Do you have any finals left? If so, just relax and focus. I'm sure you managed 21!

I gatta agree with Heather, two weeks ago I took my last quiz in A&P and didn't understand the chapter. So, I guessed on most because I had no clue to what the answers were.

I did better on that quiz than the others. I got my final tonight...good luck to both of us on the final grade! I had a low B before the final. Will I be able to keep it?

No, I don't have anymore finals. Thank goodness! I took my ethics last Wednesday and should have a solid "A" in that class. Thanks everyone for your encouragement. I feel better once I receive my grade. :stone Tomorrow can't come soon enough!

If you want to figure out what grade you need on your next test in order to keep your grade, use this online grade calculator:

http://www.conquercollege.com/gradecalc/

It not only shows what you need to make on your next test in order to keep your grade, it shows what you need to make a higher letter grade as well as what letter grade you get if you get a low grade on the test. It pretty much does everything.

I got a "B"!!! My profressor posted our grades this evening. I'm in shock, I was honestly thinking a "C" or worse. Of course, now I'm questioning whether my professor wrote down the correct grade. :specs:

:ancong!:

I'm glad you did well. :) My final is in the morning... if I get a 74 I'll keep my A (if she curves, which I don't know if she realizes or not but she just throws in an extra 100 to our tests) or an 88 if she doesn't curve, but I seriously don't know about this endocrine stuff. Argh.... wish me luck. lol I really need it.

Heather - What are you having issues with the endocrine? I really liked that part! Anything that I can help you with?

Congrats on your B!
