Hey guys I need some serious advice.

I didn't get into business this semester because my gpa for the 9 courses was 3.1 whereas the requirement was 3.15. I plan on retaking on of the courses that i got a B- (lowest mark) in. Say I retake this course and get a B (or higher) then my gpa for the 9 courses would be 3.15 (or above). An advisor told me it's not worth it and just keep applying but I really don't want to waste my time. I feel like i need to decide now before it's too late!! But then on the other hand people are saying that next semester the minimum required gpa will drop but I honestly can't expect that. But what if it increases and i my gpa is still not good enough!! FUUUU i hate sfu. why did they have to change admission standards!!? my gpa for all my courses right now is above 3.00. I am getting raped in the ass seriouslyyy.

My back up plan is econ. But i honestly don't know what I would do with an econ degree. It's so much harder too. :( I feel so depressed/confused right now.

It doesn't hurt to retake a course or two if you think you'll do better the 2nd time around. If you still can't get in but your GPA is fairly close to the cutoff point, then just keep applying but take upper division econ courses during the process. If you get in, then those econ courses can just count as upper div electives. If not, then you can move to econ without being behind.

At first I was like wtfisthisshit, but now it's all coming back quickly.... pythag and transformations and stuff is super simple for me, but I'm still dreading that test on Tuesday :(

Did you do the homework due today? I didn't see anything on webct saying it had to be done :(

Do you remember your stuff from grade 12 math?

logs, trig (know the ASTC chart) , factoring, completing the square etc

Dont feel bad if you dont pass. If I had gone back, I would have failed and attend those workshops tuts.

mc. 09-09-2010 11:52 PM

i got the email about hw being due, freaked out and did everything. Turns out it was just lon capa, and i handed in my written assignment early, hope i didn't make any mistakes, as i did it all from memory.

I hope that diagnostic test is easy, all i can remember right now is the easy shit.

Are you that guy that kept questioning the teacher? Sitting in the front lololol

mc. 09-10-2010 12:07 AM

lol, no but that guy was super annoying, dont make this lecture longer than it already is asking some dumb ass questions, its fucking review. But i think he's one of those guys that ask a thousand questions and gets an A.

I was sitting alone, behind him sorta on the left hand side, near the bottom. But there was this hot ass white chick sitting near at least. :)
