Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 14, 2014 10:32 AM Too much memorization. IP: Logged
Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 15, 2014 12:42 PM I prefer application. IP: Logged
Cancer/Scorpio729 Moderator Posts: 2282 From: 6,000 feet above sea level Registered: Feb 2010	posted August 16, 2014 04:58 AM That's good news for me, memorization is my specialty! Application, not so much. Probably why I found general chemistry so hard. IP: Logged

Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 18, 2014 02:45 PM Law school allows the bringing of notes (outlines) for exams. So, it isn't memorization. Students have to apply those cases to scenarios. IP: Logged
Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 19, 2014 01:41 PM And grading is on a hard curve. IP: Logged
Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 20, 2014 03:07 PM Meaning that if the highest score is a 80, that's an A. But if most people make a 95, it's an A, and I could make a 96 and it be a B. IP: Logged
Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 21, 2014 12:18 PM You could theoretically make a score in the 90s and still get a C. Some will have to get Cs. IP: Logged
Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 22, 2014 02:19 PM Plus, there's no feedback through the semester. One test at the end for each class. IP: Logged

Ellynlvx Knowflake Posts: 10490 From: the Point of Light within the Mind of God Registered: Aug 2013	posted August 23, 2014 04:23 PM No, I'm reading it. Just didn't want to interrupt. Was thinking about it last night and hoping things went Well. IP: Logged
Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 24, 2014 12:33 PM There is a lot of reading, which I'm not fond of. Every day for hours. IP: Logged
Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 25, 2014 03:04 PM Around 200 pages a day. IP: Logged

Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 26, 2014 01:31 PM No into it yet. IP: Logged
Ellynlvx Knowflake Posts: 10490 From: the Point of Light within the Mind of God Registered: Aug 2013	posted August 26, 2014 08:26 PM It is So difficult for me to read something I am Not interested in. One of the requirements for a Horticulture class was to take the test for a silver card. So you can legally use bug spray? I passed, but the rules and regs Sucked, to say the least. (I always thought of it as the "what Not to do card.") IP: Logged
Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 27, 2014 09:58 AM I'll be interested in law, but still that's a lot of legal cases to read every day. IP: Logged

I never understood the purpose of a hard curve, sounds like the hardest grading system available. If I mnot interested in the reading I don't even bother to read it. Worked so far but I'll have to change my ways soon. IP: Logged
Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 28, 2014 01:13 PM The hard curve makes students compete with one another for the grades. It's a very tough system. IP: Logged
Randall Webmaster Posts: 109491 From: From a galaxy, far, far away... Registered: Apr 2009	posted August 29, 2014 12:32 PM There will be many overachievers and some slackers. My hope is to stay in the middle of the curve. IP: Logged
