don't know. i remember being surprised that it took them over a week to get our grades back last semester. maybe closer to two. i think there may be more external pressure on curves / bureaucracy here...
B+ for general chemistry last semester.
waiting on animal biology, physics, law.Need a B average to get to transfer into Health Science for next year.
I am a bit worried, yeah. I didn't know I had an average requirement with having my Masters Degree... I wouldn't have done law 'for fun' if I'd have known that. Not after that chemistry grade. Not with physics (the hardest parts of chemistry).
If my GPA is a little lower I might be able to get a place if I change my application to applying for targeted admission on grounds of disability. I'd really rather not do that, but I will if I need to, I suppose.
It is hurting the ego a bit to feel like I'm concerned about being a B student when I was most definitely an A student before. Partly, I'm worried that I'm just not as good at science as I am at other things. Partly, I'm worried that I'm just not as good at anything when I'm at a better university that attracts smarter and harder working students. I don't know which it is. Probably a combination of both. I remember though that my worst grades were earliest on. Perhaps that always is the way. If my B+ for chemistry can be an A- next year that may be enough. If my B+ or A- for animal biology (fingers crossed for something like that) can be an A next year then that may be enough.
Anyway... Chin up...
Baldur's Gate II... Is good.
