I know an arts student who failed the majority of her arts subject last semester.

Yeah, but she was aboriginal

 

[stazi]

No she was white (and really pretty as well).

well her brain was obviously aboriginal.

she obviously also didnt try.

or was mentally handicapped.

thus aboriginal.

seriously, this semester for gender studies I'm doing no work. I haven't done any prereq subjects either despite there being a few. i don't do the readings. hell, even for my preso, I didn't read the reading I was meant to present on, apart from the intro and conclusion.

I'm still sure I'll get a D for the subject. At worst a C.

In conclusions, only Aboriginals fail Arts.

and post pics of her plz.

 

[AsyLum]

She said she was doing a major in ancient history or something. That sounds pretty hard (not that I've attempted it though so I can't say). Also I don't have any pics of her and even if I did I wouldn't post her pic. I don't think she would have even liked me telling her story on the internet.

If she's failing easy arts, majoring in AHST isn't the place for her rofl.

No that sounds easy. Particularly compared to mechatronic engiqueering.

If she's abo, she'd stab you

i agree with the OP. its so hard to stay optimistic when there are assessments. like now, i'm so bloody depressed. but once they are over, its all good again.

i can't fucking wait for this semester to be over. someone plz rig public law results.

I was feeling pretty depressed before midsems. But I feel SOOOOOOOOO much better now after midsem break. It was really needed, although it was for just 1 week.

i have an exam in 6 hours and all my brain wants to do is tell me how much i suck and will fail . not useful when attempting to study. i've pretty much given up on doing well in this one.

[stazi]

it could be worse. you could've been born lebanese. or sudanese. or nese.

 

[ambermorn]

just before big assignments are due and big exams are coming up - I get a surge of a low feeling.

I'm not sure how to describe it - but it's a low where you feel like you're trying to climb a ----ing huge mountain with weights tying you down...

This is the truth and is very common in school. :angry: The reason is because there is like a huge mountain with weights tying you down of work to do, and it is too much...

Some say it is because tests are dumb.... as if the teachers need to know how smart you are instead of just you be able to do stuff that is learned because you wanted to learn it on your OWN and so you know it now, and will never forget.

Other people say it is because school gets bad grades now, isnt that dumb? How can school get bad grades if it GIVES grades????? But they say that it does, so maybe school needs to go to school and learn that you should not have so many tests to make people stressed, stress is the first sign that you are not learning anything that you actually want to know, it is a sign that you are being slaved to know something stupid that you will forget after the test....

See, I am smart. Schools should ask ME to give them their dumb tests so I can tell them they are dumb.

Because passing/failing uni does not determine your future?

Just had a Mid-sem exam the other day;
90min Midsem exam - worth 20%
120min Final Exam - worth 60%
