Taking a harder major, but no one knows what it is or why its useful. They just know its hard.

And everyone finds it boring so no one wants to talk about it even the 10 other people in your own major.

Name the discipline.

Bio systems processing?
Some form of math degree?

Pretty much have a worthless degree because the faculty at my school didn't give a fuck about me.

there's a good chance i failed an exam i really shouldnt have. ahhhh
there's also a course where i got fucked out of 40%of 30% of my final grade. so that's 12% i just lost for a dumb mistake.

i just really, really don't want to fail any courses, but i might, alas. it would fuck with my graduation date, unless i get 1-2 courses this summer. but i have a full time job and somewhat specific course requirements. i just wanna be done this shit, but i let myself slip. idc about the mark but i care about the fail.

i'm just kinda scared idk why

this is what i'm afraid of
i'm going to keep emailing professors and going to office hours until something happens, even if the only opportunity I get is in the last semester of my senior year

Why are humans like this? I'm not even that autistic.

I think the favortism that goes on during college isn't talked about because the people who aren't the favorites end up in a shit position of no power because of it.

Econometrics!!

Original thot

Just got home from meeting with my adviser. Next semester I'll be taking Anatomy & Physiology I, Technical Writing, "Exploring Computer Technology," and Intermediate Algebra.

I'm taking intermediate algebra as a sophomore because I'm a mathlet and a returning student. After a decade out of the classroom I can't understand what the fuck they're talking about so I keep dropping the class. This semester I'm going to have to do it one way or another though because it's holding me back from taking other courses. I'll be happy with a C.

Decided to go with the simplified comp sci class because it's easier while still fulfilling my degree requirements. I'm not a comp sci or engineering major, I don't need a strong theoretical understanding. The only introduction to comp sci section is taught by an asshole professor anyway.

Community college is kind of awful, only half the professors remotely have their shit together and NONE of the staff does. The whole place is a mess and my grades suffer from it. Can't wait until I can transfer somewhere else.

Sometimes it can be helpful to think about math as a foreign language. Try to get in the habbit of figuring out what the math "says" instead of just memorising equations. I guarantee it will make it easier in the long run.

Any good strategies for learning linear algebra or math in general? I'm having a hard time tbqh

I honestly think most people might be borderline retarded. I'm not even smart, but I spend a few hours studying the night before and I generally get A's on exams. Like seriously, unless you're taking some advanced math or physics, I don't get how people can't grasp basic concepts. It pisses me off when I see students wasting their parents' money and not even fucking trying. We got geography exams back today and the girl next to me answered a question asking about a specific country with Africa. A FUCKING COLLEGE SOPHOMORE THOUGHT AFRICA WAS A FUCKING COUNTRY.

I am. I think most people in these threads do as well.
> A FUCKING COLLEGE SOPHOMORE THOUGHT AFRICA WAS A FUCKING COUNTRY.
People like that, I dont know how they get into college

go for tutoring, talk to the professor

I know that feeling. I took an Accounting class and micro-econ class as a part of my Actuarial Science major electives, and they were some of the easiest classes I've taken. I only required 2-3 hours of studying to get perfect scores on tests for those classes, and yet the average test scores in the accounting class were around the 70's.
I just don't understand how people can do so poorly in such easy classes, it was just basic memorization and simple concepts.

god someone help me, changed 7 page essay topic 5 hours before because i ran out of ideas, send help send help send help

Holy fucking SHIT. Was it college algebra?
I failed several times but finally got lucky with a Prof that would give you lots of credit if you just showed your work.

Every semester, we have a group project. Last semester I had a good group and made some friends, but this time I'm stuck with shit for brains who can't be bothered to do anything. Wouldn't be a problem if I could do all the work alone, but we're supposed to be building something and need several group members to be allowed into the workshop. At least I can pass just by doing well in the modelling test, the report and the class test.

Don't become a wagie the food service industry sucks hard

You're almost there user, don't give up yet, you are only a few months away from becoming a doctor

If youre worried about not getting partners, literally just ask people around you, even if they've already started a group. Its pretty much guaranteed they'll say you can join.
As far as group work and helping other students that sounds really gay, but you can do it.
Remember user, youve gotta get that retarded piece of paper, but once you get it, its yours
Yeah. Assuming you actually try to read it

I want to not have partners. I can't handle people face to face. They've scared me since I was little. I got my last job because my brother vouched for me being reliable even though I'm so quiet. I only took this prograk because I wanted a job that would let me not talk to people.

I understand user. I hate group work too. I don't like talking to people. When the professor says
>Tell me something about you
I begin to freak out. Presentations are even worse. I get really shaky and stutter a ton. Its really noticeable. I had someone say they felt sorry for me because of how bad it was
You can handle group work user. Just remember, no one else wants to do group work either, and if you get an ok group, meetings will go like this
>meet up if it is absolutely necessary to get something done
>do it
>leave
that's it. Groups tend to have tunnel vision on getting stuff done so its a plus. You can handle it, its gay AF, but you can do it. Ive done a couple projects without hardly speaking. I just did my part, sent it to them, and that was it

It's just tough for me. A lot of my fear comes from childhood abuse. The whole time I was recording my presentations I felt like I was yelling but they still said I was too quiet in the feedback.

As long as you don't make it too awkward and keep it simple and friendly.
Asking a girl out can be as simple as getting lunch with her or something, try to make it non-threatening and you should be ok champerino

I'll probably end up with two B/B+'s this semester, rest will be A's
How is everyone's grade outlook?

C/low B in one class (because I fell off hard after the midterm) and As in everything else. I haven't even handed anything in since the midterm in that one class but I ran the numbers and I'm guaranteed to pass, and could pull a C pretty easy.

Got a BBC for the term(semester).

Looking like 3 B's and 2 C's.
Might be able to get an A and 4 B's though depending on how rest of semester and finals play out

I took an intro to astronomy elective this semester. The teacher gave two options: Quiz every class or take two midterms. I fucked up in a few of quizzes and my note so far is a 3/5, which fucks my GPA a bit.
Should I take the midterm, lads?

Finals next week, everything is fine.
I don't need to study, it's all okay.
I can just sit here and play vidya all day. Yes yes.
