Retalitation
So.....I had the chance to retake the Calculus test I didn't do so hot on. Before I tell you the out come I must inform you that there is this rule that says if you retake a Calculus test the highest score you can get is 70%. Anything below 70% stays at that score, but anything above 70% goes down to a 70%.
So, I'm taking the test with a nervous mindset, but I studied a little bit before hand and I was making sure to have an answer that made some kind of sense before filling in a bubble. If I do the problem and don't get an answer that was a choice (this test was all multiple choice as opposed to 1/2 multiple choice, 1/2 free response on the original test) I then work backward with all the given answers. One of the problems wasn't working out forward or backward so I chose the answer that looked the most similar to an answer I got. ANYWAY! After all this doing forward and backward then redoing and undoing I turned in the 20 question multiple choice retake of the Calculus test. And....
I got an 80%!!!!! I was pretty happy. I've never been so happy to see an 80% as my score. I talked to Morgan about it and said that I can keep back tears for bad grades because sucking it up and moving forward is about the only option. No point for tears. But with a good score it's completely different! It's overwhelming to know I passed with a semi-good grade so there's nothing to suck up and move past.....I don't know what to do with that situation! As that was the situation I was in, I teared up! Although, I quickly made myself stop before it went any further. But I got an 80%!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll only get credit for a 70% though. But that's okay. I got 55% on the first test. I'll take 70% over 55% any day.
Glory!!
And now I've got another Calculus test next week and I have a feeling this one will go a little better. I understand the material for this next test better. :)
