Need Encouragement

[blynn9173]

I got my results from my exam yesterday. I got a 83% which is a C. I studied really hard for this exam, and some of the ones I missed I knew. I have a 85% B average now in the class. We have one test and the final left. The only bad thing is it is fluids and electrolytes for the next test, and the final is renal. I am just terrified. It takes a 78% to pass, and I am afraid that I will get down to the end and not have enough points. I have been so depressed since I got my grade. This stress is getting to me I think. I just pray I make it through this summer. I just ask for you all to pray for me that I make it through. Thanks.

The prof is a cellular biologist, so that should explain a bit!

Sounds like I'd love his class, but then I've been accused of being a geek before

To be honest, I've really enjoyed the class. Just haven't really enjoyed the level of detail on the tests. Those chapters are LONG and DETAILED, as you well know, and there has been a test over at least five chapters every week. Twice this week since it's the final. And did I mention that we skipped the first 13 chapters??? I didn't think that was that big of a deal at first, but as I've gotten into it, I realize we missed a lot of material in those chapters that would've probably made the latter chapters easier to understand.

It's kind of disheartening when you've put so much of your time into a class and end up with a B or a C.

Still praying (and studying!) for that B...

I got a 78 on the fluid and electrolytes. I wanted a higher score but I am happy for what I got. I could have failed it. A 78 is a C in my program. If I could do it all over again, I wouldn't . It was too darn stressful studying for that test :chuckle . One week to learn that section is a nightmare. You really need more time. Some people can get A's but it is a tough section. Kudos to those who scored high. I have my final left and I need an 80 to get a B in the class. I will hope for the best. I didn't study all the time so I will be very greatful for a B but happy for a C. To those that wanted a higher score and didn't get one. Don't beat yourself up. For those who have not taken this test yet, Best of luck to you.
