So basically im in 11th grade and I'm failing my math class. Its a college level class so Its not like I'm failing algebra 1 but it still sucks. In the beginning of the quarter I had the stomach flu and a broken arm which made me miss two weeks of school. Those were the fundamentals for the unit and when ever I tried to make it up I could not understand it. So now here's the tricky thing im gonna be at mt. hood for probably 2 months. If anyone could give me any tips or ideas on what to do because I can't go to summer school. Last semester I had a B but this semester i just need to pass..I have a 44% in the class cus the teacher made me take the two tests I missed right away and I got a 40% on one and a 15% on the other.......tests are 80% of our grade. If anyone has any good study habits,tips, or insults lay them on me. Thanks!
fucking study and learn it instead of bitching about how you're going to be spending 2 months at mount fucking hood this summer. what are we supposed to feel sorry for you or something? first year university calculus has all the resources in the world available to it on the internet, your lazy overpaid underworked high school teacher can't teach you the material half as well as khanacademy or patrickjmt on youtube. you can probably learn the whole class from scratch in under a week if you stop being such a pussy and just do it

Thanks dad
How many math credits do you need to graduate? In NY it's 3 and anyone who was in an AP(college) class had already completed the required amount and added the AP class on.
In which case, you would not need to take it in summer school because you don't technically need the class. You also would have time to retake it(next year) if you really wanted to.

I like this guy
This is just a stupid ass claim thread about how Ebola is going to mt hood for 2 months. The douche bag is all about attention, remember how many threads we had to read about his broken back from getting bent over too hard by his boyfriend. Shut the fuck up Ebola, take summer school. Sounds like you fucking need it. 15% on an exam, jesus man. My dog could pull off a fucking 50%.

Why are you always mad lol
Im usually in this situation every 2nd semester of every year. It's been that way since middle school for me. I let my grades suffer during the first semester (cause of ski season). Then ski season ends and it's the fourth quarter and I'm failing or close to failing several classes. I'm kind of in that position right now but I'm not sweating it too much.
I don't have any excuses for my bad grades. It's cause I'm a lazy dumbass. I am not a scholarly person at all. But when the 4th quarter rolls around, I write down what I need to do to pass all my classes and I put it in action. I highly recommend that you have a meeting with your teacher to know what you need to do to pass. It helps a lot.
How much is the final worth? Usually it's a pretty large chunk of your grade so all hope is not lost if you do well on it. What class is it? Look into Khan Academy (just google it). He does a way better job than most professors I've ever had and they have review/practice problems for every lesson.
How do you get a 15% lolol? You probably shouldn't have bombed your first two exams, but that shit has sailed. You can ace the final if you put the time in.
I've had to retake classes, and ended up getting kicked out of college because I failed to improve my grades. During your illness/injury you should have been in discussion with your school. I had a TBI my junior year, and had to take summer classes to graduate. My school knew about my condition, you have no excuse.
Don't go to hood. It sucks, yeah, but you do not deserve a reward for failing. You need to pull your head out of your ass and realize the implications of your choices. Have you paid for Hood, do your parents know about your grades? Honestly, take summer school & do things around your town so you can not BE HELD BACK IN SCHOOL kill your GPA, and ruin potential college scholarships/opportunities.
You need to talk to your teachers NOW and explain your situation. Talk to a school dean if need be.

Teacher wouldnt let me wait a week to get caught up she said I had to take the tests before the end of the day.
EbolaAlso I'm going to hood to work at a camp.....I don't get payed or anything just food, board, and lift tickets
you're putting a summer job over your education? I'm serious dude- you are risking your future. It's an amazing opportunity, but PLEASE think about the implications!!!! It's just a summer job, sure it seems cool, but you really need to remedy your grades and the current school situation before focusing on your summer vacation.
safarisamYou should have went to the administrators to get an extension due to medical reasons.

Speaking the truth.
Life lesson from this situation-If you ever have medical emergencies, be in constant contact with your workplace/school. Almost all places will be willing to work with you so long as you actively update them with the situations.
You will have many other summers to go out to Mt. Hood to work there.

casualDude.....like yeah....fuck school or whatever, but going to mt hood in lieu of passing a class in HIGH SCHOOL is the dumbest shit ever.You're in 11th grade, it's way too premature to be fucking your life up to ski a slushy park. I can't believe this is even a question.
I likely won't fail I have another quarter and finals.... I posted on what to do to improve it....I can only take 3 years of math also....I'm just asking for tips to pass cus I'm not going to summer school if I fail cus I can just re take it again next year but I would prefer to pass lol.

if you weren't such a sensitive little bitch you'd see that i mentioned khanacademy and patrickjmt. both are on youtube and will teach you everything you need to know to get an A and more. the math you're doing isn't hard if you actually try
or you can just keep complaining and searching for sympathy on newschoolers where unfortunately you'll actually find it these days. in that case go into your garage and grab some rope because luckily for you, they all lead to an end.

Yeah I only need 3 years to but Im taking 4, idk why lol.
Seriously though, just get a tutor, sit next to the nerd or ask your friends for help. I use to have a similar mindset but I realized if I get this shit over with now and just pass I wont have to do it again. If you fail this year because you were lazy youre gonna hate yourself next year when youre in a class of strangers and youre doing the same shitty math again.
OP it is simple. All you need to do is smoke some methamphetamine.
It will allow you stay awake for a full 24 hours and give you an insane amount of motivation to study. I'm sure after a little meth binge you'll be completely fine and ace the last test.
Either that or you'll end up masturbating for 10 hours straight.
Abu-BaghdadiYou only have yourself to blame. It's not like you're learning about fourth year medicine. It's a first year college course, you have to study maybe a few hours every week. It's not that fucking hard. Life isn't going to be all roses and fall into place, you have to work for things.
We argue a lot. But can't argue this point. Spot fucking on
If its a first year math course at the college level it still isn't that hard, just grind out all the homework questions in your textbook, do all the worksheets that your teacher probably gave you, ask your teacher for help, like basic stuff dude. It takes like 30 seconds of thinking to realize this..
If it comes down to it, school > working at Mt. Hood over summer. Its not like you'll never go skiing there again if you miss one summer.

Just drop and add the class for next year. You clearly didn't care enough to do good enough the first time anyway. If it's AP just scrape for a C and do good on the AP test.
OP, you've got to be kidding me. The simple answer is that you won't be going to Hood and will instead be home in summer school. Should have thought about that before letting yourself slip to a 15. That's impressively bad.
Chubz.Youre an idiot
YOU'R ****
JGWI15%? Come on, it takes effort to fail that hard.
+1
brotodid you make your username ebola because you're a fuckin disease to society
Sick burn
I'm assuming it's A.P. Calc, and you have to try to get a 15%. If it's in the A.P. Format you get at least 3 points in a long answer just for rewriting the problem. I skipped all of fst and pre calc and went right into A.P. Calc. Almost failed my first tri, so I studied my ass off and got b's and a's the rest of the year
Sounds like your just lazy
There is really no excuse for not passing a high school math class. Likely you're not putting in the meager 2 hours of work every day after school so you should get off newschoolers, stop watching edits and start learning. As said before use your resources like khan academy. You know how you pass classes in high school?
Show up. Pay attention. Do your homework. Ask questions when you don't understand. You said your teacher is being unreasonable. Either go talk to them or seek help from other teachers. My mom is a high school math teacher who constantly helps out kids from other classes.
You could've been studying while you were injured. You could've talked to your schools administration about missing that many days of class. But that's in the past. Stop bitching and go study. You don't have to be Einstein to make it through high school you just have to actually put some effort into what you're doing. Unless you really don't give a shit about going to college or using your brain later in life in which case go party and ski.
It sounds like you still have a little bit of time to make up at least the 6 points you need to make it to 50% - have you tried speaking to your teacher and quite literally asking THEM what you can do to make it up? If you're struggling to understand the material, ask if there is a way that you can sit with them or another tutor to get you where you need to be to do well on the finals.
Try taking some initiative, admit that you fucked up to the person who can actually do something to help you rather than coming to NS where you're likely to find nothing helpful at all.

if you don't pass ---> summer school. school>skiing
You are now officially the dumbest kid on NS. Holy fuck the choice is obvious. Skip out on Hood because you're a dumbass and didn't talk to your teacher(s) while you were sick or whatever. If you would have asked for your homework while you were at home you could have used Khan Academy.
Your only option if you want to go to Hood is do an online course.
