I used to play baseball and basketball, too. I had geometry last year, and I like that a lot better... Mostly 'cuz I got an A.Yeah, my lowest grade was a 79 in Alg. II...that class sucked. Its funny cause I was taking Geometry at the same time and ended up with a 100 in that class. What other sports did you play?
I played Volleyball and was on the Track and Field team for a year. Long Jump...I wanted to play soccer, but I found that I was better at watching than playing.

Haha, yeah. Geometry just clicked in my head whereas Alg. 2 took more time...I think I did so bad because I don't like asking questions in math classes. I had a scarring moment in the fourth grade when I asked my math teacher a question. She called me dumb because I didn't understand division...we were doing it in a way that made no sense to me. Later my dad showed me the old way of doing it and it was so much faster/easier than the new ways. Since then I don't ask questions in math. It sounds dumb but it really affected me.
Oh man, I really hate math. It has no room to breathe. Exactly right, or totally wrong. You can wriggle out of more in the humanities.

Yeah...I just finished Trig/Pre-calc and my friend would always ask me how I got that answer...I told him, I dunno. Then he would say, well how did you do it...then I would say, I just did this and this....he would say, Basically you just made up your own rules.
I made up my own rules in math...haha, it worked! I ended up with an 83 in the class!
I just want to make sure this stays on the front page...
And was a name ever decided on for this?

Don't they still have partial credit? My college career was built on partial credit.
Do, or do not. There is no try. - Yoda
What do you mean by partial credit??
I guess in math, if you set the problem up correctly but do something stupid like forget that multiplying two negatives give you a postitive and then you end up with a negative number and it throws your whole answer off. The answer is wrong so you don't get the 5 points, but you used a method that would have led you to the correct answer had you not had a brain fart in the middle of the long long problem. Partial credit is my friend.

Oh, pssh...my teacher was satan incarnate. She led you to believe that she was in a good mood, then once you asked her a question! BAM!!!!! Your toast.
We never got partial credit. But most of her students were seniors so she let them off pretty easy...us too. Or at least with homework...but watch out!
well that is pretty harsh. I can see how partial credit might not be acceptable in grade school, but at some point the math gets so involved and there are so many steps to it and college kids have other classes and jobs and all this stuff going on. Most professors I know will give the partial credit. Do you think that's a bad way to teach, and I am being completely serious. Does it make the students lazy?Oh, pssh...my teacher was satan incarnate. She led you to believe that she was in a good mood, then once you asked her a question! BAM!!!!! Your toast.

No, because a lot of the time its just simple mistakes. Stuff that people KNOW how to do, but under the stresses of exams or whatever, just over look. My chem. teacher was pretty good about it. Excellent teacher he was.
My chem teacher bragged about how fast he could read Harry Potter, and that he had seen every Seinfeld episode.

sorry i havent been checking in on this thread, parkouring is where you move in straight line, no matter the obstacles, you go over, under adn possiblky through it, it looks pretty darn sweet.
i got a c in algebra 2 at the last half of the last semester, i stopped paying attention and got screwed on the exam
i never got extra credit even though the teachers said they gave it, i once ddi a problem through in physics, i ended up with the right answer, doing an equation that doesn't exist, but the answer wasn't the teachers answer, i went up to the teacher later on to figure out what i did wrong, he said the answer made sense, but wasn't actually correct, he did some crazy math equations that took up the entire boared and got exactly what i got, it was kinda funny, that was my only A test for that class
