| I see them just as questions to see how are we doing with this part of the program. Like, if you get 80 % usually, and in maths, in ''calcul differentiel'' (dunno how it's said in english, sorry :/) you get 65 %, it just mean, to me : ''Oops, I'll have to study that part harder than I though. Thinking like this helps me a lot and I'm less stressed before an exam. | |||

| Calcul differentiel= Differential equations (dy/dx)? If I do bad on a test/exam, I typically take it that I didn't pay attention enough in class or to the outside work... Not too much to say outside of that. They typically don't worry me that much, either. I either know the stuff or I don't... No use worrying about it directly beforehand. |

I... don't do bad on exams.  My lowest score was 69, but that was a presentation in front of the class. I lost 20 for being nervous, I'd bet, throwing together all the things I screwed up on because of that, and we were even being graded on what we wore! I don't have nice clothes. Everything else, even a Spanish exam (which is a class I got kicked out of four times a week), I got at least 80 on, and I've gotten 4 perfect scores on exams - Algebra 1 pt 1, Biology 1, PE 9 (teacher gave us the answers while we took the test.  ), and World HIstory 2.So really, I just look at exams as "Hey, it's the end of the school year/semester!"  |

| Back in high school, I usually went ape-shit if I got D or lower (in that school that's go for a 76% or lower) because then I'd have to worry about the repercussions later if it turned out I actually got lower than an A or B in the class overall. Course, towards the end, especially after my father left, I really didn't care, and I was already well capable of pushing myself. So now in college if I do poorly, I kick myself, but not as badly as I used to. Just a mental note that I better start getting my act together if I want a halfway decent grade in the class. |

| Bell curve? I've never been screwed over with a bell curve knocking my grade down. And if that ever happens, at least I can rest easy knowing that everyone went down with me.  |

| I've never ever gotten below a C on an exam, it just doesn't happen. The lowest grade I ever recieved was a C minus on my Trigonometry Midterm, but other than that, I managed to get good grades all around. I actually do better on exams than I do normal tests and quizzes, for some reason. Though usually when I take tests in classes like my calculus class last year, I kinda abuse the ability to ask my teacher questions during exams. For example, my last test I asked a new record of questions, getting up 23 separate times in order to ask him questions about problems I didn't understand. My questions ranged from "So here I would use the formula for finding out the fluid force on a submerged vertical surface?" to "Is this the right answer?" The best part is that he actually answers me truthfully. I still got a 76 on it though.  |

I don't mind them. On the minus side, they're usually hard, but on the plus side, they're only an hour and a half long (though you can stay as long as you need), then you get to go home, plus they always come before big holidays.  |

| No it's legal, he encourages it. They're not state exams, just normal tests. | |||

| Huh... See, usually I figure that test and asking questions of any kind don't go together. Now outside of that, yea, I'll definitely ask if I dunno. (edited by Hiryuu on 10-16-04 11:20 PM) |

Originally posted by HiryuuOriginally posted by Grey Mwhaha, maybe I should try. Sometimes my spanish teacher walks around and points at the wrong answers or if we need to fix something..but he doesn't tell us the answer. I think he made a mistake like that once. Usually I don' ask teachers questions during a test. It's like a test..man. |

| I like exams. I rarely get under 80% (or B, for most of you). I mean, exams are just there to be easy. |
