Got my first uni grades today

Sep 26, 2005 19:15

They ain't pretty. They aren't really unexpected, though, so I don't mind them much, and I'd already written off Physics-Electricity, because I hate it. How much do I hate it? I got the urge to write "hate it hate it hate it". That's a lot of hate.
In the morning came the algebra homework, where I got 71%. I wasn't too happy with it, but I pretty much expected it, because there was this one question worth 20 points that I did not understand at all. I shrugged it off, though, because it's only worth 10% of the grade, so I've really only lost 3% off my total grade. I can make it up.
So I got 69% in that test, which compared rather favourably with the class average of 55%. I was happy with that grade, since I had simply skipped one of the test's five question, worth 25 points. I don't get non-ponctual charges at all.
Seb was sitting next to me, though, and he nearly broke down. Obviously, Poly is mostly all geeks, so most of us aren't used to bad grades. Seb sure wasn't. He kept saying that it was the worst grade he'd ever had. For the entire hour of the lesson that was left, he looked very much depressed. It was kinda funny to watch.
He cheered himself up somehwat by drawing stuff. I drew him a crappy looking circus and clown with "il y a un éléphant dans ce cirque" written next to them.
