Japanese final

All my grades have been screwed.

I got my Japanese final chapter test back. My worst fears are confirmed. An 87. The mistakes I made were primarily easy, mostly stress/panic.

I did my oral presentation today. Fucked it up because I just didn't have enough time to work on it and my confidence level was just not there. I had two other finals, plus I had to work this week. That's 15% of my grade.

The fact that it was embarrassing and humiliating was just the cherry on top. (I normally love oral presentations and am great at them.)

My Philosophy final last night, I think I did fine on the first half of the test. The final essay question... *shakes head.* Because Philosophy was backed right up to my work schedule I often had to turn in assignments late. So I got dinged on four out of fourteen written assignments. Maybe a B+. Maybe.

My Law class... should have been an easy A. But earlier in the quarter I had to miss classes to get the Philosophy homework done because there was no room in my schedule for it elsewhere. I intended to make up for it with the extra credit assignment, but never had time to do it. So that screwed up that grade. Maybe I have a B. The teacher said I did participate a lot, so that helps.

[livejournal.com profile] wildernessguru who's been here, watching how I use my time said, "This was the best you could have done. You've been run ragged honey, and you haven't had any time."

Compare this to last year, when I didn't have to work during school: straight A's.

All you guys who have your school paid for by your parents, or live in countries that provide free college... don't talk to me right now.
