Did you ever take History 231?
Yeah. Last semester.
Who was the professor?
It was Professor Johnson.
I have him this semester. What do you think about him?
He's a terrible instructor and demands a lot, but fortunately, he's an easy grader.
What did you end up getting?
I got an A -. Sounds good, but none of my test scores were that high, so I don't know how I got a decent grade.
That's probably because he grades on a curve.
Are you enjoying the class so far?
I hate it and I was about to withdrawal. But after hearing your experience, I think I will tough it out.
Yes. Definitely stay in the class. You will get a better grade than your test scores. He does that deliberately to make all the students study a lot.
