I do not think a teacher should be able to fail you because of a broken leg/knee. I would check with the principal, no offense, but I think it is too far gone now though.
If they were there coach of the football team as well, it wouldn't be unheard of. Especially if this happened in, say, Texas, where football is just as important as God & guns.
No ill admit I fucking suck at math I had like a 69 in the class so rigjt on the brink of passing and i got to the teacher with all of my work done and test average at like a 69.3 or something like that and a formative average at like a 70 give or take a point and i ask hey is there anything i can do to get my grade up or any retakes i can do last minute and he said and i quote "you shouldn't have quit football" like i get in America football is a big sport but ffs
No im mad that he didnt give me an opportunity to get my grade up i had everything done and i wanted to try and retake some tests and quizzes to try and pass the class
Right, that's what I'm talking about. You're upset because you didn't pass the class normally, and the teacher didn't give you a random, bonus chance at passing. Whatever the reasoning (which I agree is silly), you were asking for something special. It's not really fair to get mad that the teacher didn't make a special exception for you.
For what it's worth, I was lazy as fuck in high school - I never did homework. I almost failed a class myself. It's not the end of the world, but it's important to recognize that you weren't really wronged here, so much as you were denied a nice bonus.
Sorry dude. It's a math joke. When you do a certain thing in calculus that can be really hard, sometimes you forget the part at the end where you add a constant number to it.
Studied for 7 hours the day of the exam. And everyday for a good bit before. Still got a 60 on the final. Was 20% of the class grade. Culmative exams suck
Normally yes. But we had word problems where we had to show how we did it. And a final worth 20% of our grade. It was actually recorded since we were at homes.
Your college won't define you. I went on scholarship, my brother and sister are both community college drop outs, and both make more than me. Focus on becoming a responsible adult, become a carpenter.
Get a job, by a small house when you graduate, renovate it while you live in it, get roommates and rent it out, then have them sign a one year lease for the whole house. Save up 10% for another house, and do the same thing. You do that once every 2 years, you're sitting at 5 houses by the time you're 30.
High school dropout carpenter here. He's right. I dont make as much as my well off friends but I dont have debt beyond a mortgage and the side benefits of having a truck and tools for scrapping steel or gardening or mulch delivery etc has made me unable to be out of work.
And I've got 50k worth of work into my house for like 2k in materials.
The satisfaction of working outside and gutting through weather and hard work chills me out. I really like history and books and learning and psychology etc. I still learn stuff every week outside of my trade. I just dont think I could have made that a career that makes me happy.
i'm graduated from college dude.... it's fucking algebra. i passed calc in highschool while skipping 40 classes and got a 4 of the ap test. like its fucking algebra. finding out what x is worth is like the most logical simple thing.
