I finished finals last week with a few comfortable A’s and one “by the skin of my teeth” A.
Pharmacology, for those of you that have not had this blessed experience, is a tough class. Basically, pure memorization. For someone like me who prefers to see how things work, this type of class is much harder than, say, A&P where you can visualize muscles moving like levers, food being broken down through the digestive tract and so on.
I went into my final test with a 91.15 (a 92% is an A and they do not round). I studied my butt off, got a 96% which brought my overall up to 91.89. My first B+ since I started back to school? Lucky for me, if less than 30% of the class gets a question right, we get the points back. So, thank you to all of you that missed the same 2 questions, giving me 4 points for a 100% on the test and an overall grade of 92.33%!!! It may not be the best way to end up with an A but all things considered, I’ll take it and be happy with it.
