Finally got all my grades in.

Hist 100 Citizens and Slaves: A
Hist 110 History of Sexuality in Multicultural America: A
Math 457 Intro to Real Analysis I: B+

I know those A's in those 100-level history courses don't mean too much in the grand scheme of things, but my GPA was looking , so I got to take these A's where I can get em.

I'm really disappointed by my grade in real analysis. I was consistently higher than both the undergraduate and graduate student averages on both tests and all homework assignments, I was in his office hours at least once a week, I know I aced the final, AND this professor's known for giving huge curves at the end, and that motherfukker still didn't give me an A.

It may sound like I'm making excuses, but I don't give a fukk. I'm mad as shyt right now. I could have had a 4.0 this semester. I've never had a 4.0 EVER.

I was in his office hours at least once a week,

 

[AquaCityBoy]

what? I had good questions.

I know better than to go to a professor's office hours with questions unless you've already worked out most of the problem, and are just stuck on one part. Me and another dude did that last year for a class. We damn near got cursed out.

 

[Seven1986]

Bio A-
Comm 305 (interviewing) A
RPTA 110 A
Comm 410 (Interpersonal Communication) B
Comm 413 (Organizational Communication) B

I email my Comm 413 and ask him if he could bump my grade up if I was borderline and he did since I had a 79%.

 

[Grams]

Tell me why I got good grades and I still wanna drop out

 

[Slystallion]

Only got 2 grades up

Financial accounting A
Basic Italian 2 C+(took italian 1 5 years ago was my hardest class)

Management marketing and business law should be A's once they are up...damn language requirement just glad its over

Accounting isn't about the math. The math is the easy part.

The CPA exam doesn't test mathematics. It tests one's ability to apply the 1000's of GAAP, AICPA, PCOAB, SEC and IRS regulations to different business transactions or even individuals.

A computer wouldn't be able to pick up Enron fraud or World com's fraud. A computer wouldn't be able to tell if a Parent company has significant influence over a subsidiary even if it doesn't have the right stock ownership. A computer can't tell if a company is recognizing transactions that it's not supposed to.

Computers are tools. They can't make judgments. They can't apply experience and knowledge to transactions. A computer can't game a system to save a corporation or individual from paying too much in taxes.

Maybe that computer that won jeopardy could be an accountant maybe, that's basically what accounting is... Memorizing rules...like a trivia contestant.

why are you even answering those trolls?
anyways. I'm doing an internship so I didnt have classes this semester or next. But i finally paid off last years tuition using the internship money and can see my marks.

Financial Accounting III (Liabilities & Equity) - A+
Management Skills (a joke) - A+
Social Psychology - A-
Positive Psychology - A-
Productions/Operations Managemet - A+

So much resilience in the Psych classes
