We got to tally up all our points today in history.

300-275=A
275-250=B
so on and so forth.

I have 272 points total. SHIT!!

I can retake the final, which I did good on, or read 8 chapters in some book and turn in *good* reading notes for 5 points.

SHIT!! If I retake the final and stroke it it is mathematically possible to get a C. I didn't miss a damn single class period either. I asked if that was worth a couple points. He laughed.

Damn, my weekend is ruined ...

So far:
Sociology an A
Calculus B
History B

Shit, with these grades i'm gonna have to attend a damn CSU or JewCLA and not my first choice, Cal Poly Pomona.

Would you retake the final and chance it?

Read the book! A little extra history never hurt anyone.

Read the book!!! Your grades might improve if you stop looking at the chicks and pay attention!!!!  I know its hard to pay attention when there are many fine pieces of PIE to drool over!

Another vote for "read the book".  You'll learn something and get the A!

I would be happy with the B but I have no to very low goals anyways, so dont listen to a damn thing I say.

Second choice : the book report

Just do what everyone else does: pay some high school kid to hack the school computer and change your grades.

Never retake a final was my rule of thumb version two is always an ass kicker!   Profs don't like doing makeups so make you pay!

Get both (exam retake AND book report)!

If I were to actually get a B in something I'd just take the B and call the year over. There'll be plenty of other tests and in the grand scheme it will matter little.
Just kidding. Of course I got a B!

edited to add: It's Miller time!

Eight chapters...that's all?  Read the book.  It will do you GOOD!

Then go find a copy of Webster's, look up GOOD and then look up WELL...and do a bit of reading on the difference between a GOOD verb and a GOOD adjective.

It really is important to know the difference.

I really like being a pedantic old fool!
