Yea, contrary to what I thought, my 5th calculus course was hard. 
I'll have a W(withdrawal) on my transcript, but it doesn't affect my gpa at all so I figure it is worth not having the D or F. 
Now I am studying for Physics- Waves...woot.

I had my mid-term for my James Joyce class today. 30 question exam on Dubliners.
I think I did alright.

I have a 2.76 gpa as we speak. I am in 5th quarter of college. I will be here for a total of 12-15 quarters depending. Is it possible to raise my gpa to above a 3.0?
A 2.76 is absolute SHIT and I feel like such a peice of shit for having a 2.76. I can do so much better.

Oh. That is like the polar opposite of my degree: Biological Engineering.

No offense, but if you want to be an engineer you should be able to figure that out.
Midterms...
I had a physics test last week that I smoked! Way above average on that one. On tuesday I had two tests back to back, math (which I did ok) and then programming (which I did great on). The real hard one is on friday though, quantum physics. Those tests are like a mental curb stomp.
Nevertheless, just keep on truckin

Ah, but I am a lazy engineer so I would much rather have someone else figure it out for me.

Damn.. 3.47 here... philosophy is hard. Shoulda been a business major and netted a 4.0gpa with about 30 seconds of study time.
Plus partying every minute of every day of freshman and sophomore year resulted, as one can imagine, a pretty dismal GPA. Recovering that is not exactly a walk in the park.

I feel you on the tough majors. Taking Calculus, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics puts quite the burden on ones shoulders.

I tend to not study the hour or two before a test I start getting nervous and second guessing myself I find that if I study sufficiently the day before and just clear my mind the day of, I do better different for everyone though
