I did pretty badly. The first semester I got 4 As and 2Bs but this semester I got 4Bs and 2 As. It dropped my GPA like a stone! I'm taking a summer course to try and get it back up. Last semester I took

Microbiology (and lab)
Gen Chem II (and lab)
Pre-Calculus
Psychology
Technical Writing

Next semester I'm taking
Genetics (and lab)
Organic Chem (and lab)
Calculus (which for some reason has a lab?)
And Linguistics 101

I hope I can get my GPA back up to an at least average level for pre-med...

It looks to me like you're still doing very well! But I hear that you are dissappointed and have set very high standards for yourself! I hope you do well this summer. I always did better in summer school. The classes were smaller and the time was too short for my enthusiasm to wane. Sending you hugs and good wishes!

I did better than I had the previous two semesters (I think because there wasn't any math involved). They were mostly legal admin classes. Got three A's and one B.

Just finished my first week of summer classes - customer service and career planning. They're both taught by the same instructor, and I might end up giving her grey hair and/or a drinking problem by the end of July.

How did you do, Gracie?

If YOU should need some TLC, I will be happy to lend an ear and offer encouragement and support! Everyone needs some TLC!!

Well I'm on the other end now. I feel pretty good about my school year, I'm just ready for it to be over!

I was so happy when I was done with all my math courses. I actually went to college twice. The first time right after high school, but I didn't graduate. Then nearly 20 yrs and a lot of life later I went back after my children were in school. I had to take almost all my math over because of the way graphing calculators are used or something else stupid I never quite understood. But luckily for me they seemed much easier the second time around. It was slow going, but I eventually finished!

I'm glad you're feeling good about your semester. What did you do to celebrate? How much longer do you have?

I'm still finishing up my last rotation, so my semester is not over yet. I have 5 weeks left and I don't know if I'm going to make it. I feel like I'm just barely holding myself together. I hope I don't have a nervous breakdown so close to the end. It has not been a good year for me so far. I'm hoping things will look up for me once I am finally graduated.

My grades have been okay, but I'm afraid I've lost my sanity in the process.

All A's...though I really, *REALLY* hated my color theory class. And now I'm finally out of school!

YOU WILL MAKE IT!!! My mantra for myself lately has been "finish strong!" So you're a little crazy for now? Sanity and balance will return and you will be so happy and proud when it's over! I don't really know you but I feel confident you can do it! No one gets this close to being done without tons of hard work and discipline! You can do it!!! Sending hugs! Are you in med school?

Haha. I graduated a long time ago on account of my being there so damn long. I just wanted to finish out my art classes.
