December 11, 200817 yr Not studying for her exam would be like AN AVERAGE(key word average) AMERICAN not training for a marathon and then expecting to finish it with ease. It just doesn't happen. This thing is going to be so big and horrible, that she told us to e-mail her if we're expecting to take it, because otherwise she's not going to print out alot of copies. Then no final for me.. :walk:
December 11, 200817 yr Essentially I'm one of those people that is "never satisfied", but sometimes I need to be coached still unfortunately. You decided to challenge yourself, see it through to the end.
December 11, 200817 yr Author You decided to challenge yourself, see it through to the end. I think I have to. Not gonna lie I would be pretty stoked if I got a B.
December 11, 200817 yr Dont take the test. Your future employer wont care if you got a B or a C in this class. Use the time to study for your other classes.
December 11, 200817 yr I think I have to. Not gonna lie I would be pretty stoked if I got a B. And you'll be bummed if you don't... No test...
December 11, 200817 yr C's get degrees... But if you plan on keeping your GPA up really high, go ahead and try to get the B. I got a couple of C's my freshman year and I haven't gotten any since. I really regret not working harder in those classes.

I really regret not working harder in those classes. Getting a B vs a C would represent 0.025 points on your final GPA. So, is a 3.325 much different than a 3.30? Doubt it.

I don't think this is about a future employer, it's about you. Studying for this exam will further your education and ability to overcome obstacles. You stated you wanted to challenge yourself by taking this class - see it through to the finish.
December 11, 200817 yr Dont be a quitter and don't ever ever settle for average if you think that you can accomplish more . Take it !!!
December 11, 200817 yr Getting a B vs a C would represent 0.025 points on your final GPA. So, is a 3.325 much different than a 3.30? Doubt it. I barely got my GPA up to 3.5 before my final semester. I wanted to do it because I wanted to graduate with honors, but had to make straight A's last semester in order to do so. Going into my final semester I had a 3.5 exactly...just good enough for cum laude. If I were him, I'd try to get the B because IMO every point counts.

If he's in the same situation or thinks he might and he thinks that studying for this long-shot doesn't hurt his other grades, fine. Otherwise, pass on it. If this is his last final and he's got time, take it.

If this is his last final and he's got time, take it. I still have another year, but I doubt I'll be graduating with honors(dropping out my freshmen year to join the army, and not doing it the right way, really wasn't my best move). I didn't take school seriously until about a year ago. I just got by with some hard core umm stuff(too many warnings by the mods to say what I usually would here:D). But within the past year or two I've actually started to apply myself so to speak, it's a work in progress.
