Grammar most likely average as fukk if that compared to someone who truly knows grammar.
I feel like I have to be at least decent in grammar if I am on forums all day.
Obviously since all of my classes will be writing from now on. I will improve.

As for creative I think I'm good. Most likely we are all amazing with our imaginations and its a beautiful gift because even when you get old you can still create it doesn't take physical requirements. Like how old is Stephen King and hes still writing decades later. It just happens to be not everyone explores their creativity. And for some people its just not in them to sit and write out a story as I found out its not in me to look at some codes.
It may sound patronizing or kind of mean but it's not meant to come off that way - look into getting a college level book on English. I read a little over half of Teach Yourself Correct English by B.A. Phythian and it helped me to relearn some concepts I lost over time.

Just finished my first semester of Grad School. Taking two classes, while working full time, and being a relationship. Felt like I aged about 3 years in 5 months, and this was only the first semester. :wow:

I got an A in one of my courses though :blessed:

The other course is curved, but based on the syllabus I got a C, however my final grade is showing a B:patrice:.



Pray to god that's the grade that shows up on my transcript. :troll:

Same here, just finished my 1st semester of G-School

3.25 GPA
4 Classes
40 Hrs at Work

Gonna take a winter class and stick with 3 classes for the spring

:mindblown:

How TF you do 4 classes working 40 hrs

Classes at night and one of them was an easy quantitative course but it was rough. Spent a bunch of saturdays at the library trying to understand econ and I worked on 2 assignments this semester at work. I legit did my policy memo at work and submitted on Friday.

I wont be able to get away with that next semester

anxiety sucks man. I owe a certain amount of money before my next semester.
One of my classes got canceled so they Unbilled some of the money back on to my account. It says its been effective since the day of my class was canceled. But I never got a new billing statement and I'm only going to pay the certain amount calculated that's left over.

I know my class is canceled for all of that money that was going towards that class should be back into my account.

But anxiety is like: But what if its not? What if they still going to charge for the class regardless?

I'm like if I just pay the new amount calculated a new billing statement should me issued

anxiety: yeah a new billing statement with the rest of the money you still owe

I'm like all I gotta do is pay the certain amount on the school site

anxiety: that's not how you pay for this youre paying for something else you are gonna do it all wrong and still owe money

:damn:

International Affairs

Depends on the Program, Aside from Econ my coursework was light compared to other schools.

The word count on the papers might be longer thats all.
