just to throw another buzzkill stick on the fire, but "I go to class for the first time in like a month" might be part of the problem to begin with.

Just sayin'.

Yeah, I was going to mention that. :lol:

EVERY class will be hard if you go once a month!

My professor is foreign and I literally cannot communicate with her in person. I have to do it through email because I can't understand what she's saying. This is not a hyperbole -- this is a fact. And during lecture she talks into this microphone that further distorts her voice (because she's as quiet as a mouse). Coupled with the fact that I think that learning via lecture is far from optimal for me personally (I've said that numerous times), I have no problem skipping that god-forsaken class.

The class average on our first test was a 56%. I think that speaks for itself.

I understand, I just thought it was funny that you said weren't doing good in the class and that you haven't been there in a month.

I have a similar story, I had an accounting class that I hadn't been to in quite sometime and decided that it would be a good idea if I went. Just so happens the day I show up they are having a test which I had absolutely no knowledge of and didn't study at all for. Add to the fact that I was hungover as hell I think I managed about a 30% on that sucker, coincidentally I also failed the course.

LOL!


Oh, and for what it's worth I probably wouldn't go to this class anyway... but at least it can be justified by the [expletive] professor. [/delusion]
