icarusThe grades just came in today.
I nailed the Geology class. Which was expected -- hooray, extra credit.
Unbelievably I got 3.8 for Logic. I must have aced the final. Given that the score was based on only two exams and three assignments - one of which I only got 50% (the evil dreaded conditional proofs) - I must have had a perfect or near perfect score on the final.
Now time for the sigh of disappointment: 3.6 in the Religions class. Ouch, that's a shock. I'd nailed all most of the weekly assignments and the two exams, so I must have really blown the final exam.
Okay, yeah, it was a really tough class, but I think I've just learned a lesson in "balance" and "overkill."
Guess I worried about the wrong test.
Hunh.
Fourteen years as a monastic and my lowest score for the quarter is in Religions. There's a certain irony in that.

Date: 2005-06-24 07:46 am (UTC)This is just my usual butt-kicking. Trust me, my father is worse. His every (manifold) talent is held up to the light, measured against the most ruthless standard, and gauged "not bad... for an amateur [insert other slightly derrogatory term]." In reality he's just tickled -- at the same time he's driving himself to keep from becoming complacent.

Actually, I have a Daddy story to post next....
