This week has been a disaster, mostly because of Orgo. First off, the lab coordinator just released the curve for the first half of the course (this is two weeks before the final), and, according to that curve, yours truly, a self-proclaimed Chem genius, has a C. Wel that's fucked. Second off, I got a B minus on the English group paper. Not really ( Read more... )

Have you ever thought that maybe orgo is HARD? i mean maybe it can only be A or B-ed by those who have no social life. Organic chemistry, at least at pitt, is fucking hard. its hard to get an A or B in it and still have a social life. A C wont kill you, seriously. I think your wonderful overachiever image will survive 1 or 2 Cs. Dont sweat it.

Haha maybe, its just that I got an A in both classes last semester, so did I get dumber? As far as me not suffering from one or two C's ... in case you didn't know, I commute to campus (a dumb decision I've made as a freshman, which consequences rein still), and the car I drive is my parents'. If I get a C on my transcript, they will take it away. Now, I could get campus housing, you'd say, but the thing is, there is a waitlist of a 400 people waiting to get UMD campus housing, and I'm number 173 (that's after two semesters of being on it). Without a car, I couldn't get to my job (or not as efficiently as I could with a car), and since I pay most of my own bills (most of which have to do with the car, like gas, insurance, repairs, along with my phone bill, books for school and incidential spending), cutting back on hours would really hurt me. Also, if I do get a C on my transcript, the insurance company will raise my premium. So that's that.

=( I'm sorry this semester has been so bad for you.

I still believe that you are a very smart and insightful person, and if all of this happened to you, it's not at all a reflection of your abilities.

It's just an inexplicably stupid semester.

Sorry this doesn't help anything. I wish I could do something to make it better. At least the semester is almost over.
