Grade troubles!!!


Question Posted Friday October 1 2004, 6:02 pm

Hey. I have a big dilema. On my progress report I recieved an A in PE, and science, a B in social studies, and an E in math (algebra). I was just recently told that I might be getting a C or a high B in language arts. I am really worried about my grades because I'm striving for all A's-4.0. I will be talking with my algebra teacher about my math grade since I think she made an error and that I think I am getting higher than and E. Is there any way I can get all A's-4.0 by the end of this quarter knowing that it ends in almost 2 weeks. If so, please answer my question...I would really appreciate it. Thanx!

I'm sorry, this is off topic, but you have an "E" as a grade..? Wow, we just have A,B,C,D,F! Sorry--just never heard of that before.

Okay, well I would say, just try your hardest, concentrate hard, and maybe you could ask your teacher for extra credit you can do. Good luck!!

I take it this is your first year in high school or possibly the last of middle school?

in the case that it's your first of high school, everyone goes through a transition period where they do poorly, just because of stresses like, "where is my class?" and "holy crap, I'm younger than everyone!" I did and my grades dropped. The same happened to me in middle school. It's natural and you shouldn't worry, because that makes it worse.

if it's your last year in middle school then you're probably just slacking off for that reason. Work on your most challenging classes for 10-15 minutes a day (studying extra and the like) and your grades should pull up.

If you don't fit into the above two situations and you're just really bad at math, don't be afraid to ask "stupid" questions or stay after school for tutoring if it helps you. Heck, I took algebra twice and now I'm very good with math and I've tested into college math courses for high school credit. Algebra is really really important, if you don't get it, you may be better at geometry.

It's good that you have high goals for yourself.
