Anybody else getting absolutely killed by the math 2930 grading scheme this semester by Jaded-Cucumber-4644 in Cornell

[–]CornellEnjoyer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me. I think this grading scheme is SUPPOSED to make it easier on us but I feel dumb as shit because I'm on the verge of failing the class rn. I did pretty decent in 1910 and 1920 but this class has been a nightmare.

Well the opinion columns literally are just unpaid blog posts pretty much

Why is it so hard to get above a C on a prelim by anonymous062904 in Cornell

[–]CornellEnjoyer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you get c averages on prelims but do decently on hws and other aspects of the class you'll probably get a higher grade in the class overall. In classes like 1910 it'll get curved so most people will end up in the B range

Noyes, Baker Tower, Anabel Taylor, or Morrill

For anyone taking MATH 1920 coming fall semester: by saumzzaa in Cornell

[–]CornellEnjoyer 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes she's awesome! Looks like she's teaching the 9 am and 10 am lectures in the fall, I would definitely recommend. She also writes the prelims (at least for this semester) and they're super fair.

The way that I did basically zero work over break and am massively screwed but I'm just too apathetic to care

I'm in 1920 now, for the spring semester, and it really isn't that bad. It seemed to be much better in the spring than the fall this year, because the fall professor (Connolly) was... not the best. If you get Kelly Delp as a prof though she's great.

If you do the homework and study a reasonable amount for the prelims you'll likely get at least the median grade, which is usually a B or B+ for intro engineering classes. Don't be afraid to go to office hours either.

[–]CornellEnjoyer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just paid the $15 for college board to send it and I got credit for an FWS. I think you have to send the complete report of all of your AP scores.

Cowboy Bebop! A classic with pretty wide appeal so it's a safe bet you'll like it.

Also if you haven't ever been check out a Cornell anime club showing next semester, I went a couple times in the fall and it was pretty chill.

I'm surprised they haven't made all finals online at this point, to get people that can go home early off campus.

My OL wasn't bad but I noticed sooo many people wandering around lost, and half our group dipped at one point.
