Yoshi Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 Umm... maybe I'm just too sheltered, but how does one test drop you 20% (or 3 grade levels) ??? I can understand in college where its basically a midterm and a final, but what's up with that? I understand the parent thing perfectly (my parents are exactly the same) but trust me, they are doing you a big favor by making you pay attention to your grades and your work habits man.

Yu Yu Hakusho! Posted January 6, 2003 Author Share Posted January 6, 2003 [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by keyblade [/i] [B][QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Yu Yu Hakusho! [/i] [B]Ok....imagine your life is like mine.....my dad says that if I do not make straight A's at the end of this next report card (this semester) then he'll ground me from TV to friends(he means EVERYTHING). How does that sound???? Ok, we just took a test in Algebra and I basically flunked it (I was tired that morning though...) and now my average went from a B to an F. Math is my most important subject to my dad so he thinks I'm supposed to be some Genius when it comes to Math. I just got my progress report today for all of my classes and everything is OK except for MATH!!!! I feel like crying or just killing myself or something. Math is really hard for a bunch of people in my class now and we're all kind of having problems but I SHOULDN'T!!! I usually do make good grades but this crap we're learning now is really hard!![QUOTE] OMG!! I know exactly how you feel!! That is the same situation I am in!! My dad saw mai progress report and screamed his head of until I started crying and stormed off to mai room:bawl:. Don't get me wrong, I study, I just don't unserstand the concepts until we have already taken the tests!! It is soooo aggrivating!! The only thing that is really different is the choir/band thing...I am in orchestra, and our rehearsal are directly after school...u get the picture. Oh yeah, and like anime_gurl, my dad kills me if I get anything b low an A. YuYu Hakusho! I get what U mean, b/c if I weren't good @math, I wouldn't b in Algebra either!! Oh yeah, I like "YuYu Hakusho", "Inuyasha", and "Cowboy Beebop" too!! Do u watch them on Cartoon Networks Adult Swim?? [/B][/QUOTE] Yup, I love those Anime. My fav's. Yu Yu Hakusho is my favorite though. Anyway....I'm so glad I've gotten over this "crisis...." My grades are all A's (Except for Math which is a B, thank God I did well on my exam) . My band teacher and Choir teacher FINALLY understood that I can't make EVERY after school rehersal like a lot of other people (we DO have lives...and homework) so my grades are all 100's in there...it's not about talent, it's about ATTENDENCE. I sware. Anyway...I haven't even gotten my report card for this last semester in the mail, but my teacher showed me my final grades before I left for vacation. 0_o And school starts once more....*sigh* Man...this is an old topic. WAY before the holidays. I'm sure that everything will be alright for all of us "grade gripers" and all we need to do is stay away from Anime while we study and do homework.....^_^; But really, all I needed was a little vacation. Now I feel ready to beging school again (even though I don't want to) and refreshed. I'll make straight A's this time for sure. Anyway, my dad was trying to scare me.....

Tommy Vercetti Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 Im from England and that same kinda thing is happening to me at the same time i have to take these things called GCSES in like a years time. ( i know i have a kinda long time to study) I find maths very difficult and cant stand it when i get picked on to say an answer and my maths teacher was foreign and spoke very fast so i couldnt understand him and if i dont pass at least 5 of my GCSES in a years time i will be ****** and grounded from seeing friends and everything and will probably have to constantly study. I am probably younger than most of you ( im 14) but when it comes to maths i find if i get to learn the key terms and have strategies and quick methods of how to work things out then i can kind of understand and do the work so maybe you should try doing that and Tv and everything is very annoying as it likes to distract people which is very hard to overcome, but i suppose your parents are only trying to do the best for you as they dont want you to fail and get a rubbish job when you are older which is understandable. Also my maths teacher was very good even though i couldnt understand him very well and he has now left so i am stuck with a new teacher who basically knows nothing so im dunno what i am gonna do.
