Grade A (Minus)
I got a 95% on the final. *squee*
by my calculations, I think that means I got an A- in the class. It's the GPA equivalent of a 3.67, so it'll still fuck up my 4.0 dreams, but I think it's good enough for PT school. Who knew about this whole A- thing? I don't know, I'm still not as happy as I was about the midterm. Somehow that minus is making me feel like a failure, even though an A- in this class is a sign that I am a fucking genius. I know people who took that class three or four times and only eked out a B the fourth time through.
We already knew I was brilliant, the question was: could I give it my all? My answer is: I don't think I did. Unless you count procrastination and whining about studying instead of actually studying as real hurdles to success. There are people who spent countless hours more than I did on this class and got lower grades. Getting an A- without as much effort is an ego boost, but it's reinforcement for lax study habits.
I should be really grateful that I can learn without effort. And stop whining about an A-.
Now I just get to wait for the rest of my grades to come in. Then perhaps there shall be a drink.
