Just failed my math midterm?

Question

And I'm really upset about it. I thought I knew the material well enough, but during the exam, I just couldn't remember anything. I guess I deserve the grade I got and will try to do better on my next midterms. But just wondering if a D on my first midterm, and there are two midterms in the class worth 20% to my total grade, with the final worth 40% and the homework worth 20%, it is possible to get at least a B in the class? Will I have to do really well on my next midterm and final and homework in order to get above a C in this class? I can't afford to fail this class as it is one of my major requirements.

Answer 1

Yea just try to study a little more and do a little above average on your next tests and I'm sure you'll get a b. lol my final is in 2 weeks.

i've got had the comparable element take place before. enable your mothers and fathers sign the midterm. Then supply the signed reproduction decrease back on your instructor. in case you communicate on your preparation counselor they could set up so you might have a instruct. I failed a math midterm and had to get it signed. I later had a instruct. worked with the instruct for a pair of months and then did ok on the main suitable.

"I just couldn't remember anything"



In order to be successful in math you need to ensure that the previously learned definitions/formulas/etc. are *ACTUALLY* in your long-term memory. The only way to prove that they are in memory is to use active recall. You can use a spaced repetition system to monitor the forgetting curve(memory intervals) of the material. A SRS will give you a window(interval) for a memory trace to ensure that the material you are learning is in memory for an interval(time).

Well, it depends on the workload that the teacher assigns. If he or she assigns a lot of homework and test then you are fine and can get an A. However, if he or she hardly gives any assignments then you will have to do very well or your screwed.
