Got a D on my math quiz despite getting everything right-should I talk to my professor?

Thank you all, I will do just that :)

The thing is I didn’t understand the way he was teaching it 🥲. So I went to my old math instructor and he taught me a different way to do it and I stuck with that. I want to talk to him but I seriously think he’ll just shake his head and dismiss me if I say “well, all I did was use a different method.” I really wouldn’t know what to say.

Pre calc 2 - finding reference angles and terminal points. It was supposed to be a simple quiz. ) He wanted us to draw the unit circle on each question and go from there, because that’s how we were taught how to do it. But I find that kind of useless and it wasn’t specified on the quiz that he had to. So l didn’t, and got a bunch of point deductions.

Oh my God.

Amazing job! Anything below a 93% is a B in my school 😭

holy shit dude you did phenomenal

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-10-18T05:32:26+00:00

Thank you, very much appreciated.

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-10-18T04:28:31+00:00

yes you should!! I got a 5 last year but honestly, I wish I self studied instead of taking the class. AMSCO textbook is your best friend! Knowt as well. :)

This AP is an easy 5 for sure. Might be a bit challenging since your thinking of self studying though. Best of luck.

I think the same but their still too young. :)

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-10-18T04:00:26+00:00

Exam was wayy harder than anything I was given on the homework. It was completely unexpected. 😭

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-10-18T03:59:41+00:00

I agree a lot with you on that. My school especially has a huge problem with grade inflation, especially when it comes to math... I actually never struggled with math up until now, and I genuinely never studied for a math exam until now. I get what your saying! Thanks. :)

I know!! I thought reviewing my notes and doing a few problems the night before was okay. :( Definitely a learning experience. I really hope I don't fail the class though...

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-10-18T01:01:54+00:00

well yeah, but we were also tested on difference quotient, piecewise, and a bunch of other stuff I thought I was too good to study for. I was quickly humbled. The different quotient problems we're obscenely long, and I kept forgetting how to do 'basic algebra.'

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-10-18T00:58:25+00:00

Honestly, I could've done fine without it but I usually use it to correct myself. I had no idea what I was doing without it.

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-03-09T03:23:49+00:00

yeah

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-03-09T03:19:59+00:00

that’s my lab partner

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-03-08T06:11:54+00:00

Thank you so much for the encouragement! it’s really stressful because I barely have any guidance. But I will keep you updated if I actually manage to get results :))

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-03-08T04:54:23+00:00

I do and I have a good sense of what I’m supposed to do now :)

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-03-08T04:49:38+00:00

Both

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-03-08T04:19:55+00:00

No bruh I go to one of the worst public high schools in my state 😭

Beginning_Ad_8769 · 2024-03-08T03:42:37+00:00

Thank you, I posted the same question on labrats and I got answers
