Summer School

By on June 7, 2010 9 Comments

When I was a kid I barely squeaked by, but never had to do summer school. I finished my 2nd semester of college in Early may and completely failed my online algebra class.  I figured since I got a 3.5 in the pre algebra class that I would be okay to take the next one online. BIG MISTAKE. And because of that I have to spend 8 weeks doing math in the summer. I hate math with a passion. I am a science geek. Medicine especially. I know there people that hate science and biology as much as I hate math. I wish I could swap brains with a math whiz just for a short time. Perhaps it would make me love it? I am supposed to go to orientation by tomorrow or I get dropped. I would go but the pell grant is sitting somewhere at the college not being applied as I type this. I have to have my refund to be able to get the gas to drive there so I have to call them this afternoon. I should have been paid last Friday. This is driving me nuts because last 2 semesters they had my tuition and fees paid for the day before classes started. This would have been this past Friday.

Anyway I am kinda bummed to have to go to school this summer but if I work hard then the next level math class won’t be so hard. Maybe.

    I’m not a big math person either although I actually did wanna take a math course online just to see how much I remember. :) I’ve been taking a few online courses for a couple semesters now just to prevent my brain from turning to mush :) Can’t do it this summer cause the stupid college doesn’t accept this particular grant in the summer? So what ru taking in school? Something related to science I take it :)

      I am going to go into the Radiology program. I believe it was a math level six and I started at 3 in the fall last year. I think I am 5 now, or I would have been if I passed the last one. I wish I could take a baking class along with it to make it more fun to be there!

    One of the classes that I hate when I was a student was math. Definitely, I’m not a fan of it.

    I always did pretty well in class but I would hate to go to summer school. Hopefully you can get through the summer math and next semester won’t be so difficult!!! Good luck!!!

    Well I got off summer school! Not really by choice but I found out I didn’t get the financial aid or refunds because I had to be enrolled in at least 6 credits worth of courses and because its too late to enroll in anything, along with the fact I can’t afford to fork over 300 more for another class, I am staying HOME this summer. I am ok with it actually! I get to blog more! :D

    Math was NEVER my strong subject. I am so bad at math, and I can imagine how hard it is! I am glad that you are taking the summer off now though!
