I'm not a nerd but when people say "oh it's just an F"


are you fucking retarded?

Do you have down syndrome?


f = fucked up GPA

bad GPA = usually bad ACT


= BAD COLLEGE, BAD LIFE.

You can bring grades up.
So its not a big deal if you have like one F.

"I'm not a nerd"


By you saying that, You admit that you don't care.

You don't have to tell us that.

No F's for me. Not now, not ever.


-- Posted by anc8469 at 7:17 pm on Nov. 20, 2008

I agree if I ever made an F or when I make an F I would sit in my room and be depressed.

Conformists.

I get disappointed in myself for getting a C

All you have to do is go to a community college and than transfer, in that case grades really don't matter... nor does the ACT or SAT
And transferring to a four year university is much easier that way too.

i hated getting bad grades.. it hella sucks!


-- Posted by babecakes at 7:18 pm on Nov. 20, 2008

i care about school and what not.

Those equal signs aren't nearly as definite as you're making it out to be.

F is not a good thing, but it's only a fraction of what life consists of and other things can influence life in the right direction (like studying, or higher grades in other subjects, or pursuing other skills, or pursuing less demanding jobs)

One F won't kill your GPA. It will drop it, but it won't completely destroy you.


-- Posted by wallopwoop at 7:19 pm on Nov. 20, 2008

I've got guaranteed admission to the local uni provided my GPA's high enough to get in, which is like 2.5. So yeah, if I get a couple F's I don't really give a shit.


-- Posted by drifting at 7:19 pm on Nov. 20, 2008

An F does NOT mean a bad GPA.

Seriously, Ive gotten so many Fs....Just retake the class, it gets replaced, problem solved.

I just try not to stress. Im smart, Ill get into a good school. If I dont do as well as I want in a class, Ill just retake it, no big deal.

Bad college doesnt mean bad life either. Unless you are in a field and school that will start recruiting for jobs right out of college, it doesnt matter to much. And after so many years and you get enough experience, no one will really care what school you went to.


-- Posted by PrincesSita at 7:20 pm on Nov. 20, 2008

haha true, i do care, but not like all A+s.


-- Posted by purplefrenchfry at 7:20 pm on Nov. 20, 2008

I KNOW WTF.

I know a fuck ton of people that are all "LOL LOOK AT MY F, I'M SO HARDCORE"
"wat"

This.

Also, a lot of people don't much care anymore. They think "Oh, there's a lot of TECHNICAL jobs I can do." My school is a "target school" because of our drop-out rate, and so we're subject to mandatory tutoring if we have an F on a "progress report" which comes out every 2 weeks. If you don't go to tutoring, you have IN school detention. If you don't go there, you get after school. If you don't do that, you're suspended.

personally, I think if you were suspended for it, you'd be fucked over even worse because you can't make up any work.

But whatever.

ok

I'm not stupid, so I am capable of getting good grades.  I'm just sick of all of this shit. I don't study. I still get average grades.  They aren't terrible.  I do well in the subjects that I choose to do well in, and I still got an average score on my SATs.


-- Posted by MyXanadu at 7:28 pm on Nov. 20, 2008

Its their life but they should not get in the way of who wants to learn.
