My grades :(.

[CoFFeY[NiTrO]]

At least you guys have D's!

Anything below 70 here is failing

some people are naturally not good test takers. I suggest talking to your parents and/or your guidance councselor and seeing what they can do. They can get you to see a doctor to try and see if you have some sort of LD. Its not a bad thing, it just is A thing. It happens.

Well freshman your I was on Honor Roll. Now its just been going down hill (Junior now). My school's F's are 59% and below. The school I go to now is one of the hardest DODDS school, so if you do good here it looks good when you apply for college.

I have a test today in WH if I do good my grade will be a C so wish me luck. I studied a little bit last night. But I will study more for it before the class, because I basically have a free period before.

[Kevmaster]

hmmmm....maybe less AO posting updates and more studing WH? pppsshhh...naaaahhhh

I do not have the best grades either.

I'm a Senior with an overall weighted GPA of 1.67 (I know, thats REAL crappy)

Although I have yet to fail a class and not make it up, I still get by with low grades.

Now, my problem isn't I find the work difficult or anything, I just don't do homework, period. Thats my down fall. I get 90's on test, most of the material I take I easily understand (especially English) I just can't do homework. Theres something within me that prevents me from doing it. If I sit down and try to do some, my hands start to crap, I get insanely uncomfortable, and/or I just simply fall asleep.

Now, I know I really screwed up my upcoming education since I planned on getting a four year degree at least relating to Criminal Justice in some way or form. But now I get to go to a Community College and re-take pretty much of ALL of my high school classes just because I got low scores.

So, my word of advice is do your work, especially since your in your Sophmore year. (assumed that since you said you had World history, although kind of surprised your taking Chemistry...So I'm not sure what you are, class wise) But once you screw up junior year its too late. You have destined yourself to at least 2 more years of schooling just to fix what you screwed up.

If I could go back I would. But I can't, and now have to work harder just to get where I could have been sooner if I only did my homework.

I screwed up half my Junior year and everything before it and got away with it. Go Criminal Justice, thats what I think i'm doing too.

It has been proven you remember 25% from reading or listening, 78% from writing it down, 87% from teaching it to someone else, and the more you teach it the more you will remember of it...

In other words listen and read, write it down, than useing a study buddy teach it to them and let them teach it to you. Also dont stress out on test day.

The numbers may change slightly from person to person those numbers are the avg.

I'm a junior. Lol I'm in US history, not WH history srry.

Ok just found out that I got a 78% in Alegbra 2. I was really wanting a B, but o well. A in video pro, B in Drivers ED. Those are the only ones I know so far.

[xrancid_milkx]

Lol, sorry about the assumption. In my highschool, US history is Junior year as well, same with Chemistry.

As I stand right now, I have an "A" in PE, an "B" in Computer Apps, a "B" in Government, a "F" in Digital art (I hate that class, should just be called art, so far it has nothing to do with computers), a "A" for office TA, and finally a "D" in English (only because I yet to turn in one of twenty current events, eh homework thing again)

I'm doing better than my previous years, but I still need to do some work.

From your grades you seem to be doing alright, just keep it up.

[Fastkid]

in my school, its 90-100 A, 80-90 B, 70-80 C, 60-70 D, and below 60 is f

[GtB188]

Ugh, My highschool takes the prize for the worst failing grade. Anything below a 75 is failing. Freshman year was a breeze. Now in sophmore year, a brick wall hit me. I slacked off studying and homeworks and such, so i am at like an ~87 average (i usually do about 94) I am deciding to pick my arse up off the ground and work.

I find that direct reading is boring as hell. My greatest strength is my skimming skills. I can skim over a section in a book, retain most of it, then do the review questions. Anything I get wrong in the review questions, I read the paragraphs on that topic. If my mother is it a good mood, she will quiz me.

Good luck with the studying!

[Matt_mg]

worrying about grades is sad, go ahead, live the life...

What's the fing point in stressing the best years of our life while all you really need to know is how to kiss ***.

[GtB188]

Well, some of us would like to go to a good college. Why do crappy now, not get to go to a decent college? Why not do good now and go to a great college, then have some fun? Yes, kissing up is nice, but most people could see right through the kiss ups.
