Favorite/Least Favorite Classes

[sage] · 10-28-2004, 10:14 PM

Well, it's fairly far into the year (we passed the quarter mark a couple weeks ago), so now that you've been in them awhile, what classes do you like and what don't you like. And how are you doing so far?

I really like Western Civ and psychology. West Civ is an easy class where we goof off a lot. The teacher, who've i've been in one of his classes 2 other years, kicks ass. Psychology, despite being my lowset grade first marking period, is an interesting course.

Economics is alright, SAT math is easy, but kinda boring, and english is decent for once.

My least favorite class is probably Marine Biology and study hall. Study hall, im forced to sit in a class for 45 minutes, I have one friend in it, who's allowed to leave cause he's high rank, so its pretty boring most of the time. Marine biology sucks. The only reason im still in it is the fact we should be getting community service later in the year.

Anyway my grades from the first marking period.

West Civ: 91 (A)
SAT Math: 99 (A)
Psychology: 71 (C)
Economics: 95 (A)
English IV: 85 (B)
Marine Bio: 74 (C)

My favorite subject will always and forever be English. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

But for this year, I'd have to say it's a tie between Mod. Education and Astronomy.

***CaptHayfever*** · 10-28-2004, 11:49 PM

Favorite - Intro to Theater Arts (THEA 275)
Least - American Lit: Chronology (ENG 265)

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

ZIPPYDIPPY19 · 10-29-2004, 06:17 AM

Favorite: Visual Communication and Creative Writing

Least Favorite: Biology (my teacher has a reeeally monotonous voice, makes you wanna...*yawn*...ya know...zzzz)

But French III is a close tie with bio., just because it's my only freakin B

Beam Yosho the Drunkard · 10-29-2004, 01:43 PM

Least: English, Algebra and Chemistry. Basically, my first three classes.

Favorite: US History(Teacher kicks ass),PE and Art. Basically, my last three classes.

Can't say I have great love for any of my classes. But I guess it goes like this....

1. Teacher Education 250
2. Spanish 310
3. ISS 330A - Social Science Perspectives of Africa
4. IAH 203 - Latin American Studies

Swordmaster Link · 10-29-2004, 05:56 PM

Favorite - Latin (Cause it's ridiculously easy and the way my teacher talks is hillarious and he doesn't make sense half of the time.

Least Favorite - AP Physics (Dear God, I'm doing horrible in that class...I think it's the first time I've ever been really challenged in school. I have no clue what's going on half of the time.)

Heh, here we go.

I like just about ALL my teachers, but only like about 3 of my classes.

English, my teacher is okay, she can just be annoying sometimes, she's fairly young, and can relate to some of the people some of the time.

Chemistry, my only black male teacher I've ever had (EVARR!) He's a cool guy, and funny too. He's not but in his 30's, I just hate science to begin with, yet this is the best I've done my whole High School Career.

Theater (intro to)- The teacher is funny as hell, his name is Keith Salter, he was in "21 Grams" (The fat guy on the birthday scene). Anyway, he's funny and can put on quite a show, it's a theater class so we do A LOT in there, it's VERY fun.

Algebra II- I hate Math. My teacher is OKAy, but he really doesn't teach honestly, well doesn't teach well, algebra is my lowest class (it's still good though)

Spanish II Honors- Sra. Lea is the BEST teacher I've had. She is an actual teacher, and IMO, has the best skills to teach a class (not to mention patience and kindness with a bunch of teenagers). Today, we celebrated "El dia de los muertos" or Day Of The Dead, a Central American holiday honoring the dead of the passing year and time. Spanish has my highest grade, though it's not as fun as it was last year, with the people in the class I mean.

Art I- Lady's nice, and I have a couple of friends in the class, and the continuous projects keep me busy, not too much on this class.

Report Card:
Class-Grade (Letter Grade in TN) [Letter Grade in GA]

English II- 90 (b) [a]
Chemistry I- 90 (b) [a]
Theater, Intro To- 95 (a) [a]
Algebra II- 84 (c) [b]
Spanish II H- 103 (a) [a]
Art I- 90 (b) [a]

GPA (TN)= 3.2
GPA (GA)= 3.8

SEE PEOPLE 3.8 IS WHAT I WOULDA HAD IF THIS TENNESEE GRADING SCALE WASNT SO DAMN CHEAP!

Does anyone else ever go through this weird "you love the class but you're getting bad grades" kind of thing? Just wondering. Since I know I'm probably not doing so well in astronomy, but I love it. =/

Meanwhile, my least favorite class is college algebra.

Dear God, WHY?!

***CaptHayfever*** · 10-29-2004, 10:35 PM

Actually, as of midterm reports, I had a C in Calc 2, which is really weird for me.
But since those grades were put in, we've had 2 big tests that I did awesome on.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Yea, psychology is my second favorite class and i got my lowest grade in it.

Brandon2390 · 10-31-2004, 12:39 PM

Favorite: Civics. I'm in a lower level than I'm supposed to be since I was screwed over last year, and it's so incredibly easy.

Least Favorite: I dont know whether to pick Science cause the class is impossible but I like the teacher, or Algebra, the class is pretty easy but I cant stand the teacher.

Princess Zelda of Hyrule · 11-01-2004, 04:36 PM

I'm liking AP British Literature so far.

Whan that April with his showres soote
The droughte of March hath perced to the roote,
And bathed every veine in swich licour,
Of which vertu engendred is the flowr...

Favorite: Newspaper, I'm an editor this year and hopefully will be Editor in Chief next year. Plus I just like writing articles.

Least Favorite: Chem Com. Boring, should've taken regular chemistry. I'm good at math, so I'd probably be donig better in it.
