Hi all,

Been lurking on here for quite a while. Decided to make an account.
I was wondering if anyone knows the difference between the letter grade D and F? Like if I performed poorly in a class like 30-40% do I get a D or F? And when do I get a F?

Thanks in advance!

I saw a gang of tow trucks lookin like they were on a mission heading up the mountain at about 11:15

No seriously they all lane changed at the same time in unison, like that shit looked like they were on an actual mission

This usually depends on the average of the class and your professor. If you do poorly in the class and everyone is getting around the same grade as you, then it would most likely get scale up.

Thanks for the reply.

It's a class that requires you to pass the final in order to pass the class. A couple of my acquaintances have also failed and are retaking it this semester. I have also heard people failing the class twice, and retaking it the 3rd time through the permission of the advisor...

The class is also notorious for failing 25 people out of 100 students every semester. Well that's what the prof said. A couple of my acquaintances have also failed and are retaking it this semester.

MACM101 correct me if I'm wrong, but I doubt it. I took that class first year and went into the final with 75%, failed the final and it was GG. If it is MACM101 and you're having this much trouble, you might want to look at getting a tutor for the next time you take it, don't forget you still need to take MACM201 which is significantly harder.

ogc called me and i booked it to my car after my class to move it, they were still towing a hour later



went down univercity only to find that there wasn't a single spot, so i went to the wmc parking lot (exhaust + enclosed area ) then realized i had no money, so i went back to univercity and ended up at the very end

If it's a core course, you get have to retake course whether it's an D or F
If it's not a core course, you get credit for D, but no for an F.

I know what course you're talking about. Don't worry, study hard.

^ Thanks... But it is really depressing, I'm mad at myself, a few people tell me to study hard for it, I want to and give my best try, but I don't think I'm gonna pass regardless. I'm having a mental breakdown, everytime I try to study for it, my mind is saying no, you can't do it. I have been going at it since tuesday, but everytime I look at the notes, it's just not working. A course has never done something like this to me before.

and yea I know I have to retake it but a D is worth 1.00 GPA, F is 0.

Good luck to you on the final.

Everyone i've talked to is scared chitless for the final. No matter how well you do on the 2 midterms, if you fail the final you fail the course which is stupid.

I have a final the day before the course and all I'm studying right now is that course

lol.. that sounds like me in first year.

Here's what's helped me:

1) Make a clean study area -- when you're stuck you will look for anything distracting
2) light a candle -- aroma therapy helps, and if you feel stuck the flame can be a nice little escape
3) Put yourself in the professor's shoes -- it is impossible for him to ask you everything. The whole time you're studying trying to ask yourself what good questions would be.
4) vitamin string quartet -- it's classical music covers of popular songs without the lyrics to distract you. Or, listen to Rainy Mood -- you need some ambient noise or you'll go insane.


good luck .. feeling hopeless is terrible but try to overcome
