Re: My first A

My best semester in undergrad was in last year; 4 A+s and 1 A, which is 4.24/4.3 on the scale we use, or 3.98/4.0. I graduated with a cumulative of 3.82/4.3 (~3.72/4.0)

fff you beat me 3 A+s and 2 As /suicide but we ended up with the same GPA phi beta kappa wutwut

edit: Weird... I also did crap my first year. Had something to do with deathmatch and DoD...

Re: My first A

I think I have a quite interesting range of marks:

Outdoor Activities: 100
Functions: 99
Biology: 97
Piano: 97
English: 92
Gym: 88
Physics: 82
Chemistry: 71

We didn't have a teacher for over a month. During that time, we had a stupid supply who taught us absolutely nothing! After about 40 days, we got a new permanent teacher who decided to make us take a test the week after on 2 chapters we never studied/got taught.

Re: My first A

When I read that an 82% was an A, the only thing I could think of was that it was possible to get an "S" too.

My mom has held numerous chemistry-related jobs in both industry and academia, and as her first child, I can't not know some of this shit. Hit me up.

Something doesn't feel right when HS sophomore year is much easier than hs freshmen year.

Re: My first A

i started majorly slacking when i got into high school. still managed to make the honor roll once or twice, but i had actually never gotten any end-semester average below an A before high school (granted i was homeschooled all years except 6th grade and kindergarten, and i stopped homeschooling freshman year because i wanted friends)

sophomore now, i have As, Bs, and Cs.

Re: My first A

anyone have any advice on any of these classes (any any any)

I am convinced that AP English, History, and Foreign Language courses are a complete waste of time.
English: You will read books. You will be asked to analyze the author's meaning. You will come to realize that you do not care how the author used rhetorical devices, and you will resent having to write an essay on your favorite book. This will take what you find fun and make it into work, instead.
History: Take the totally sufficient regular History course at your school, add the top 10% of your class, add a bunch of finely-detailed bullshit that WILL show up on the test but WILL NOT be important information about the world. Also subtract a point from your overall GPA.
Foreign Languages: If simply MASTERING (and I mean MASTERING BECAUSE IF YOU ARE NOT 100% FLUENT YOU WILL NOT PASS THE VERBAL TEST) a foreign language isn't enough, then being able to analyze literature and figures of speech is!

The only AP classes I can get behind are sciences and mathematics.
tl;dr drop AP English and APUSH, add AP Physics.
