Was A common final for all the classes, but my teacher is terrible, and has a grader who hasent taken the class grade the tests. First test I got a 60% on, handed back to teacher to regrade because it was bullshit, got 100% with curve. Can't do that with the final. I'm going to email the teacher, my advisor, and the head of the department.
The final had 3 questions, 2 of them had major sections we never even mentioned in class. Was some grade a bullshit. Have a 71% in class now, hopefully I can get it better...
I once took linear algebra and differential equations as a freshman. To this day, I have no idea what either is. Just that there were lots of matrices.
@SoupRKnowva I hope so. My one friend who I'm pretty sure had the highest grade in the class has a 82. Pretty sure a lot of people are failing it right now.
I still have nightmares about exam disasters and missing major assignment deadlines, and that was 20 years ago! I commiserate with your plight, especially if you're putting in the work.
Many many moons ago I filed a complaint, on those exact grounds. I had proof the teacher didn't teach most of the material on the exam (he refused to assign a text book). It got my grade "adjusted"...
Been there. Next time prepare better. Preparation, more preparation and extra preparation. If you have to become the student that always asks the annoying questions but has the notes everybody wants to have. They will respect you for that later...
This indicates your teacher had to correct his scoring formula based on evidence that he or she fucked up in teaching you the right material. If this happens too often, your school will want to ditch this person as bad teaching can have a nasty effect on the school's reputation.
Not necessarily. It could also mean due to generic time constraints, questions asked, or general incompetence of student and/or teacher the entirety of assigned reading material could not have been discussed in class.
Now if the material tested was not even in the assigned reading, then sure.
There was no assigned reading at all. It was just a terrible teacher. He was bad at teaching what we did go over, and then didn't even cover everything. I just stopped paying attention because it was easier to learn on my own.
As to your last comment: that's exactly what college is supposed to teach you…to learn how to learn on your own. It's essentially "you have all the background you need, now go learn it for yourself".
However, I wouldn't expect such an abrupt cut-off toward that direction for freshmen. Certainly by junior year though.
Not defending this teacher, but in a way he's hurrying you along to where you need to get to.
