Hi!
heya
How's your day going so far?
good, I  haven't quite gotten ready yet haha. What about you?
It's going okay, I just took a calculus exam, so at least that's over with.
Oh for sure. That sounds awful. I had AP calc in high school. It was the worst
Right!? The only thing that's carrying me through is that when I was talking with some other people after, it sounds like I got the alternate version But oh my goodness that class gives me depression
After the test? You got an alternate version of the test that seemed to be better?
Yes, haha, after we all walked out I was talking with some people, but my version seemed to be way harder. But when I took the biology exam yesterday, I also got the alternate version and it was way easier, so I guess my luck balances out. :)
Oh. Sometimes I don't think it's fair that they give alternate versions. Because even though concepts of questions might be the same, you still might get a different score from one to another
Exactly! The thing that made my calculus one so difficult was that the way that the questions/information was presented was completely foreign to me, even though I studied But on the bright side, it's over. I'll send a strongly worded letter to college board someday and attach screenshots of this chat as proof. :)
Yeah for sure. In my high school class I still somehow made an A though. I honestly have no idea how. I guess in high school my teacher let us redo problems to get points back from what I can remember
My chemistry teacher did something like that for tests as well, which is nice because then your grades/gpa become the result of accumulating work, not just one test So what year in college are you?
Chemistry teacher in high school? Was that a tougher subject? I've finished my second year So I guess I'm a junior What about you?
I'm a senior in high school (and that chemistry class was just sophomore year, so it wasn't AP, I would die immediately in an AP chem class!)
Ah very nice. So you're still in school for a couple more weeks is that right? Or are you pretty much done at this point?
Well this is the second week of AP exams, then we have one last week of actual school before finals, so we get out on June 1. But because I'm in mostly AP courses, I get exempt from the spring finals so my classes have parties planned for the exam periods
Oh that's a nice perk. So where do you live? I guess you're in one of those areas that has school that goes until June. I think here the high schools get out like may 22 ish
I'm from Dallas, but this is the first school year in a long time that summer starts before the first week of June. My younger siblings are bitter because summer gets cut since the school year starts in the first half of august now How about you?
Oh dang. Yeah we've always had summer start in the first half of August as well. It's kinda nice now college starts a few weeks later. And if you don't do spring/summer you also get out earlier But we don't get as many breaks at BYU I'm from St. George, southern utah
That's such a pretty area! Some of my cousins live around there and also in American Fork.
I wonder if I might know any of your cousins haha It definitely is. When I'm up north can't help but miss the red rocks
Maybe! I have a lot of relatives up there.
My only real complaint is it is too hot
