champu 1 #5 December 27, 2004 if you get a mix of As and Bs throughout college that's damn good, congratulations. Good job on the license as well. I took two courses this semester and got As in both of them back in undergrad I had taken similar courses and got Bs in both of them, so... yay! improvement!

You pretty much summed it up right there. We had labs in DiffEq which nobody understood, and If I'd busted my butt and done a few more Extra Credit Labs, I'd easily have gotten a B or even an A. What got me the C was that because he had so much Extra Credit Offered, he had to Curve the Class DOWN. So pretty much to get an A, you had to have over 100%, et cetera. I did really well on all my exams, but without the EC Bullcrap, I fell into a C-range.
