Today was the last day of the semester and its been a crazy day!

I was right on the edge in both of my classes, Organic Chemistry 2 and Calculus 2. I figured I needed between an 88-90 on my ochem exam and a 90 on my calc 2 final. These two classes were a nightmare to take together. After my Ochem test yesterday I felt confident that I did well but I told myself, I got a B in that class. Then I came home and started studying hard for calc2. I had studied some on Sunday and Monday for this test too but it was SO much info. So many formulas and techniques to remember. At one point yesterday I threw my hands up and told John..."I am getting a B in this class...I just have to be happy with that".

But today I took that test and felt REAL good about it. I was in a great mood all day. Then at 530 I got an email from my calc2 teacher, saying I got got an 87% on my final. When I did the math and realized that I had fallen just 4 points shy of an A in the course I was pretty upset. I went from feeling so happy to so frustrated thinking if I had studied a little harder or maybe asked for help on things that gave me trouble. I was so bummed. I had worked so hard to get a B in both classes.

Well I logged on to the system...it had been down for maintenance and I decided to check if it was up...it was and look what I found...



I almost peed myself. I danced around the room and had a smile on my face for a while. I am calmed down a bit now but wow I am so happy. I love my calc teacher, she was also my teacher for pre calc...and she is so great. She is strict about her policies so I did not expect this. As for the Ochem I still don't know what my grade was on my final but it must have been good. Wow. Can't believe I pulled that off. It makes it So worth all the hard work.

Now its SUMMER> No class until late August...when I begin a year of calculus based physics. It never ends!

CONGRATULATIONS

Congrats on your hard work and efforts and resulting grade!

Congratulations!!

Great job, congratulations!

What are you majoring in that requires all that math and physics? It sounds like what I took for my Computer Science degree except we didn't have to do organic chemistry.

Congratulations, Jen! That is some accomplishment because both courses are challenging. You just never know how successful you are in those courses. You could feel fairly confident and then be disappointed. You, obviously, do not fit into that category. Organic is a tough course, a new way of seeing chemistry what with mechanisms and the importance of stereochemistry and possibly the introduction of analyzing spectra. Brava!

As for Physics, not my favourite. Good luck on that.

Congratulations Jen!!!!
Enjoy your summer!!!

Well done

This is so awesome, Jen! I know how hard you study and I'm very happy for you!!!!
