I've been getting 35/30 on all the quizzes (lol, extra credit in college). I don't know what happened. I'd blame it on the midterm being right after a long weekend but I even reviewed the material. I looked through all the homework and notes and whatnot and there were certain cases of problems on the midterm we never learned about, so kind of pissed about that. I'll just have to try making up for it on the final I guess >_>
Got a 57%. First math test I've ever failed. It was embarrassingly easy, too.
He didn't test us on the tricky stuff, which is what I spent my time studying, and I guess I wasn't as acquainted with the methods for easy solutions as well as I thought I was. He did say quiz grades can help, and I can get extra points if I show him I've done all the homework (which I have).
He's going over the test now and the only question I got perfect was "the one most students got wrong" GG life
talked to him after class, he was as surprised as I was that I did so poorly. He also said if I keep up how I've been doing on quizzes, and do better on the final I'll have no problem getting an A in the class.
