T & E I

A 4
A- 5
B+ 12
B 29
B- 10
C+ 6
C 9
D 3
F 2

If you're looking at those numbers thinking they look worse than the now 2Q's Contract I grades, you'd be thinking correctly. With 3 D's, 2 F's and a mean of 2.78, the T & E I curve comes as a painful reminder to some that five units count more than four.

And yet the first years get 3.0+ curves? I'm confused. I thought grades are supposed to get better after the first year.

Is that Featherston's curve?

Same professor, same teaching style, same course and same test it has always been.

Is this curve any different than years past?

Our curve last spring was a lot better, we didn't have Ds or Fs. But here's this to look forward to.

I don't remember my curve exactly, but I don't think we had any F's when I took T&E I...although I could be wrong.

But I do know that my PC curves were worse than that!

Why does everything have to be a misery contest 9:54? This school has the worst "woe is me" mentality I have ever seen.

No misery 10:48...just pointing out fact. By no means meant it to come out that way.

I'm actually quite happy that they're changing the grading curves for future classes - I think it improves the overall quality of the school and makes for better degrees for everyone.

This guy reminded us of you, for some reason - Baylor Pride, drunk and living the dream.
