To the girl who texetd all through the math final I'm sooooo glad that you never came to class and still aced every test but some of us need to concentrate. And I'm also soooo glad that you applied to the same semester of nurisng that I did because you are SUCH a delight to be around with your catty comments and gossiping.
To the girls in speech class who actually went around asking all the other pre-nursing students how many points they had, and then telling them they'll never get in to the program with those points, and then telling them how to improve their score...just shut up. I hope I never have another class with you. You try to make yourself feel more secure by making others feel bad! Karma is a *****!!!
To the pregnant girl in math who was the sweetest person I ever met, and had her baby 9 weeks early and had to drop all her classes a month before the semester was over... Hang in there. I know this sets you back another semester, but you are going to be a terrific nurse! I pray for you and your son everyday!
Well, I've seen these kinds of threads on all the other forums and haven't seen one here so I thought it would be fun to start one.
I also hate people that tend to make a big deal because you got an A. I had a finite mathematics class last year and I got over a 95 on every test. Mind you I never showed my test to anyone, asked what they got or anything. People would be like "oh look I bet she got a 100 again". I came to every class and I took notes. Not to mention that I made it to the pre-calc class in my high school so that was nothing but a refresher for me. It's not my fault, it's the class I was placed in and I can't help that I already knew the stuff. This professor was the NICEST woman in the world, even if you accidentally used different numbers (cause sometimes your eyes can play tricks on you) if you did the problem right, she still gave you credit. She went over homework problems at the beginning of every class and gave you the answers.
Same thing happened again last semester with my chem class. Got over 88 on every test. This class I didn't know, I just understood the information, took notes and actually did the end of the chapter questions which were similar or almost identical on the exams we had like our professor told us. We had an hour recitation class where you could ask her to do the problems from the book that you didn't understand. Don't blame the fact that she had a slight accent and talked low be the reason why you failed when you were SUPPOSE to bring the book with you to class so you could follow everything she was doing since she was teaching straight from the book 95% of the time.
to the student who has called my husband at home every week for the past six semesters to ask either, "did you grade my test/paper/whatever yet? i just couldn't wait." or my personal favorite... "how many hours should i study for a 'c'?":banghead:, i finally have an answer for when he's not home. "just a moment, please. i'll go get the chart for that class." to think i used to be so patient.
