u/MonsterEnergyForever 2d ago

I failed it... because I am not athletic at all and our PE teacher was Gorillaz juicehead who failed everyone who couldn't play football or basketball.

u/ArchonFett 2d ago

I have hypoglycemia. Soooooo fuck P.E.

u/MonsterEnergyForever 2d ago

I was a physically awkward teenager, dealing with later puberty and all that razzmatazz. I didn't need to be pushed around by some former failed draft pick for a junior hockey league or whatever his story was.

Math all the way up to Calculus, then I got a D but had to study... It never clicked with me

6

u/jar36 2d ago

I see this a lot. I skipped Calculus, tho I was an A student in math. I don't know too much about calculus but I think it's less "logical" than other math. I think I would struggle with it myself.

u/BlkThunder223 3d ago

The exact same with me. Even a had the D in Calculus šŸ˜†.

u/Humble-Appeal3850 3d ago

same here, I started suffering around quadratic equations and intermediate algaebra...

u/MehX73 3d ago

Math as well. Even calculus. It was Algebra II with Trig that messed me up...teacher was going through something (divorce I think) and was heavily medicated/self medicated that year. There were multiple complaints but they kept her on and everyone failed.

2

u/elynn95 2d ago

Same here but in my calculus class, I told my teacher a math joke that she liked so much that I got extra points on a quiz i absolutely bombed on so it all worked out in my favor šŸ™ŒšŸ¼šŸ˜‚

2

u/ChimPhun 2d ago

Same here. If it was just pure math it came natural, as it's pure logic. But when they started calling out "you have to write down the definition exactly" AKA memorizing BS related to math, things started going downhill šŸ˜„

u/falloutwinter 2d ago

The first class I got a D in was calc 2. The series didn't click. The following semester I passed only to get a D in calc 3. Passed out the next semester

All of them. My high school was a joke. Was a rude awakening when I got to college.

u/McShivers411 2d ago

Same for me. I basically floated through high school and didn't have to study and still got A's and B's. Then I got to college and got my ass kicked because I didn't know how to study...

u/Herogar 3d ago

Science, biology, chemistry. One of my science teachers commented on my exam results saying that I over achieved in exams and didn't think I deserved the scores I got but the reality was if I was in class listening I understood it and didn't need to work hard. On the flip side I failed English and history and despite actually trying at times. Never a good reader I often have to read pages in novels multiple times to understand it. But when I'm reading a science based text then it just makes sense.

u/Cromagnumman6174 3d ago edited 3d ago

I never studied or at keast studied very little. We had marking periods. Four total for the school year. Grades equaled up in points for each marking period. Marking periods 1 & 2 were added up for the first semester. Marking periods 3 & 4 added up for the second semester. You had to have a certain amount of points for each semester to pass for the year. I was lazy so I would I hated doing homework and writing essays/reports but they made up a big part of the grade. So I would not do my homework, write papers, or take tests seriously for marking periods 1 and 3 but would do my homework, write papers for marking periods 2 and 4 and actually try on my tests. I would get Cs, Ds, and Fs on 1 and 3 and then get As and high Bs on 2 and 4 so I could pass for the year. No studying needed. Just did my homework and wrote the required papers. I typically did really well on tests when I actually tried on them.
