Tests and Teachers

[Guest Matt]

[color=red][b]Do any of your teachers give really hard tests? My math teacher is a Math Nazi. Her tests are only 10 questions long, but they take an average of 1 1/2 hours to take. The only reprieve is if your on her "homework club". If you do all your homework up to the day of the test, you get to skip any question you want on it because your on the "homework club". But the first homework you miss or she thinks that "you didn't put enough effort into", your off it. It's horrible. Then I have a history teacher who seems to think that homework is extra credit. lol. I love that class. Any of you have teachers like this?[/b][/color]

Math teachers....don't say that around me. they made me a freak. The other day..i tried to factor my IP address....that is scary...:nervous:

[Sui Generis]

My algebra teacher is a Math Guru and is sitting there trying to teach us Algebra two when half the kids don't get beggining algebra, and then she gives us those 10 question 1 hour long tests that are a pain in the ***...an miss 3 and your screwed...

[Washu]

Yes...Math teacher too :drunk:

He [I]never[/I] explains anything, then when he teaches the next lesson all he says is "Basically, its the same thing as the last lesson, but its not that hard...GET TO IT!" But he never [B]explained[/B] the last lesson so...How and I supposed to know? X_x

[Guest Morph]

[size=1] Well yes, I have teachers like that, Geography, my teacher is nuts. I'm in 7th grade, he gives us 8 essays to do on a test, plus like 50 fill in the blank, and he grades the fill in the blank and essays very detailed, I hate it, but I have a good grade in his class... [/size]

[Chrono Magus]

I hate my math teacher. Im in the "extra help" math group when im smarter then the kids in the "smart" group. And she gives us retartedly easy work and it pisses me off. :flaming:

[Washu]

Your complaining about it being to easy? x_X

[Chrono Magus]

Yeah...because they treat me like im some kind of an idiot and that i don't know crap.

[Washu]

lol, oh...I want easier work X_x But actually, it's not that hard n.n;

[color=deeppink]And you also double posted, which I ask you to please not repeat :)

I had a chemistry teacher my junior year who made tests impossible. Usually a 70% would be the highest grade and would set the curve. I believe I got a 17% on the final...and failed it miserably. I know not how I pulled off a B- in that class!

Basically, I think that many teachers appear smart because they have been teaching one subject for many years. I think there are very few who actually are THAT smart about other subjects...though of course I could be wrong...

Back to my old chemistry teacher, we all agreed that his tests were just a big conspiracy so that he could stay convinced that he was still smarter than us...:shifty:[/color]

I've had a mix of it... pretty much I've liked all of my teachers... tests don't bother me... as far as I see it, if you did your work, you should be able to pass the test, even if it's not what you expected... you know the material, you should know the answers.... But, some teachers, who don't make up their own tests and use a book test or one provided by the makers or the book, are usually alot harder, because what they teach you in class may not be worded the same as whats on the test.... I had that for my Economics teacher in College... I think everyone failed her tests at least once... and not because you didn't study or knwo the material, but because it was worded in a different way and no one quite understood it... it should be a duty for a teacher to make their own tests... and they should get paid more too....

I'm glad I already know Japanese (well... not fluently) or my class would be hard. The teacher is awful, she explains the easy things too thoroughly and skims over anything they don't understand.

She also has a habit of making Japan seem like a wonderland where everyone writes slow and nicely, talks politely, and enjoys the company of Americans.

In fact, come to think of it, she hasn't even told them they're speaking polite Japanese yet. [i]gasp[/i] Oh the horrors of speaking the way most Japanese people normally talk!

[color=red][b]Well, it's not that I don't know the material. It's just that the problems take a long time and are complicated. So, that makes them hard. She once took 2 points off (i would have had an 80 but she game me a 78) because when I had circled my answer of -2, the - of the -2 was just outside the circle. but all my work showed it to be -2. that got me mad.[/b][/color]

[color=deeppink]That's nothin' :p

Mr. Bright (the chemistry teacher) used to take points off for not dotting 'I's or crossing 'T's...or even for spelling words wrong. I got screwed on the spelling part V_V;[/color]

[Guest Matt]

[color=red][b]Ouch. That sucks BabyGirl. Well, atleast the year is almost over and I will never have that teacher again because if i'm ever put in her class, i'll just transfer out. :D[/b][/color]

[conpiracymonki]

[b]My geography teacher's real safe, and he always lets us out about a minute early, giving us time to get out before the stampede. He looks like Hercule/Sataan too, with his funny head-mark, afro-ey, and sideburns...[/b]

I have this one teacher who teaches Tech Ed and treats it like an art... the first half of the class (One Quarter) you do not even touch a piece of wood you just do mathmatics and write essays about how a ballon or something like that works. She would give you like 8 assignments to do in each class and no one ever does all of them you ere lucky if you completed 5. I did nothing in her class except like 1/3 of the assignments cause she got on my nerves and somehow pulled an A!!! I think she must have gotten my grades confused with another persons. My math teacher... well she is another story she loves math she even goes to math websites to challenge herself and watches math videos

[Boba Fett]

Most of my teachers are nice but not my math/lit teacher. She drives me crazy.

Our final was so hard that five out of seventeen people in our class failed. I passed, but barely. She goes out of her way to make my life difficult.

I've never had evil teachers, just really wacky ones.

I had this one coping teacher once, and we were watching a movie. Some of the kids were talking during the moive, and before it started he had said "no talking". Well, after the movie, he STARTED to give us a test on it, to see if we were paying attention to the movie, and explained that he was giving it to us because those kids had been talking(I wasn't one of them who were talking). We never got past teh first question. The first question was: what was the kid who fell and got hurt's jacket color?"
First of all, WHAT THE HELL KIND OF FREAKING QUESTION IS THAT? And secondly, I was just enraged that he was giving us this stupid test. I was about to scream and strangle him. Then he went off on some stupid lecture about how you're supposed to behave or else he'd give us all this work. (whatever:rolleyes: )
He never finished giving us the test. It was all just to make a point on how we're supposed to behave. Nevertheless, it got me really angry when he started giving that idiotic test. It's supposed to be COPING CLASS. riiiiiiiiiiight.:rolleyes: I have that teacher, not just because of that, but because he's weird. THANK GOD he's not my guidance counselor.

oh, one nasty teacher that comes to mind is my Spanish teacher. She's a TOTAL (use you imagination). We are so far behind all the other classes. She spends too much tiem on one thing. We spent THREE MONTHS on conjegating verbs(i am not kidding).
One time, when I didn't have my homework, and I said I'd write it down in my agenda so i'd remeber to bring it in the next day, she thought I was giving her an attitude, which I wasn't. SO, she snap mails(it's like e-mail in a network) my mom(she works in my school district), telling her that I was being fresh. When my mom came home that day, she started yelling at me, until I told her what had hapened. The next day I had to apologize to her for nothing. She's such a Bi***. If I get her next year, I am TRANSFERRING OUT OF HER CLASS.

my math teacher is really nice. He makes algebra interesting, and he tells funny jokes, not idiotic ones. We make fun of his baldness, too. :smirk:
His test usually only consist of 10-15 questions and occasionally a bonus, but they aren't trick questions. Sometimes, if you get an answer wrong, he'll only take off half the amount of points that question was worth, if you show your work or something. The only reason he gives 10 question tests is because we'll run out of time otherwise, and he doesn't like having a test run into the next day. However, if you do get like.... 4 questions wrong, you have a C or D. He's one of the cool teachers, but his tests are short.

ok...... there's a brief description of some of the teachers at my school. :p

[*-- RagnaroK--*]

I feel sorry for all of you, i really, really do. I got it easy, in my IT class i just log on the net, do what i want, (thats how im posting this actually), and when ever we get a test to do, the whole class tell him that theyre not ready yet, so he postpones it to next week. The poor teacher cant even speak english for gods sake, lol

[Tien]

I don't get that many tests and if I do, they are usually made up from the teacher, which is good. I usually suck at Exams/Tests. Though most of my work is fairly good.

[Sveven Dvorking]

I have a tough teacher who occasionally gives tests. The worst part about it is: He denies the fact that it's a test! It is formatted like a test and the teacher refuses to help. He is always willing to help with other assignments. As for other subjects, this year and the previous year were easier than the two that came before I don't know why.

Yeah, we have this real annoying english teacher. He treatys us like we're third form (or the beginning of high school). Even though were mature and sensible. Now however the class IS acting like third formers, and this only furthers the eng. teachers argument that we're spoiled brats lol! it is actually quite funny when youre nothing to do with it, trying to do your work, but getting a little light entertainment as well, no offense to anyone in my english class :p
