      I go next week on monday/tuesday to get my schedual. I think school starts on the 29th over here, maybe a few days earlier.

      It sucks though, because I've barely done anything this summer. Didn't go on vacation (the trip I'm on right now doesn't really count), didn't go camping, just sat around most of the time.

                              Got my results:
                              History: C
                              Business: D
                              Chemistry: I'm reluctant to say. I'll just tell you that it was Unbelieveably bad. I'm dropping it anyway.
                              English Lit: B
                              Trivial Studies (AKA: General Studies): C
                              Overall I'm pretty pleased. My main subjects are History and English. I'd like to improve in Business, but not enough to retake the module.

                                I figured you were more of the straight A type. Still, that's a lot better than what I got overall last school year.

                                ....my lazy ass had a 1.8 GPA.

                                    1.8? I thought you were nerdy. k I'm gonna go ahead and assume that my lack of comprehension about the american schooling system means that I have no idea what that number means. Explain please.

                                    oh yeah I never told you guys my ib results. They were decent, math should've been a 7 but I didn't see the last page of the test until it was over. <.< whoops. Plus I hate vectors. With a fiery passion.

                                    math: 5 (boo)
                                    history: 5
                                    chem: 6
                                    bio: 6
                                    physics: 6
                                    english: 6
                                    french: 5 (le boo)

                                    er, so that makes sense, here's the equivalency table:

                                    IB Exam Grade=Equivalent Percentage
                                    7=96
                                    6=90
                                    5=86
                                    4=76
                                    3=70

                                    so I guess I didn't die. And I had all my affairs in order and everything.

                                              1.8? I thought you were nerdy. k I'm gonna go ahead and assume that my lack of comprehension about the american schooling system means that I have no idea what that number means. Explain please.



                                              4.0=A
                                              3=B
                                              2=C
                                              1=D
                                              0=Fail

                                              I'm smart, and most of the work isa a walk in the parkfor me, but it's all just so boring. D:

                                              Science would've been at least a B if my science teacher wasn't an asshat and threw me out of class for the smallest little things (like explaining SCIENCE RELATED things to students who didn't understand, while the teacher wasn't talking).

                                              Math (advanced algebra) would've been a B if I took more notes. The final was kinda worth a crapload of points, and I kinda did poorly on it (couldn't remember everthing). Intermidiate Algebra was a C, I believe. Just needed to do more homework. Luckily, we weren't required to take notes, and it was more of a refresher course with a few new tidbits thrown in.

                                              English wasn't even a class. We did NOTHING but read and spelling/vocab tests. The books were mind-numbingly boring, and we only ever wrote 3 out of the (supposed) 15 essays he said we were going to have. I'm not complaining about the last part, but that class was crap. I aced all the tests though, but I didn't even attempt any of the essays.

                                              I was consistently late to health because what it taught was only useful for people going into medical/psychiatrist practices, and I already knew the majority of what it taught. Plus, it was my first period, and I'm partial to staying up late and sleeping in. :rolleyes:

                                              Highschool 101 was kinda like a college/job preperation class. It was actually fairly useful, but I was always behind on the work. We had our own computers though. My friend and I would carry on convo's by using notepad and pasting the document to the school's file-server for the other to read. :D

                                              I got a B in weight training though. Funny, because I ended up spending a fair bit of time fixing the computer they had in there. XD But I still did the daily routine with everyone, and the monday mile.
                                              But guess what? I can lift 1,000 lbs. with my calves. ;D

                                              HS101 and Health were half-semester classes btw. Each only lasted two quarters instead of four.


                                              So there's your explanation. :P
