Semi-Happy Semi-Nervous

So I am HORRID at Geometry... Bleh.<br>Well I studied my head off for a test I took yesterday in that class. I think I aced it!!<br>Buuut... I did the same with the last test... And failed... The teacher loves trick questions...<br>Gah.. I hope I don't get my hopes up to see a great grade and end up getting a horrid one again..<br>I'm not a fan of my teacher's teaching ways. But whatever. I'll just teach myself I guess. With the book that is XD<br><br>So far I have a C in the class. I really don't think I should be in an Honors Geometry class.. But I can't change it because of my German class. A C is the lowest grade I've ever had. Ever.<br><br>At the end of the test there were random blanks that he left and he said they were just random so there weren't answers for them. I filled them out anyways. All the other answers were like "Definition of congruence" with an example next to them. So I drew a sheep and a cow and wrote "Definition of a farm animal" on the random blank XD

  • Have you considered a tutor to help you learn the math is a different way? <br>As you mentioned, it could be the way the teacher is teaching that is holding you back. I've met lots of kids that couldn't learn math from one person, but when they sat down with another they suddenly got it. <br><br>I really hope you did good on your test. It's always devastating to think you aced it, and get back a bad mark.
    I'm done with VP. I'll just be around until I get all my dogs and lines placed in good hands. If you want to contact me, please do so through deviantART.

    <br><br>If I don't do great on this test, then I will for sure get help for sure. Another problem with the teacher is that he is never available after school to talk to him, and he doesn't allow re-takes of tests, or extra time on tests. I'm not his biggest fan XD

  • I had the exact same problem with geometry!<br>I used flash cards. I know they sound childish, but TRUST me, they work wonders. <br>Especially when you have to do angle pair relationships and all that gross stuff lol<br>I also got my first C in geometry, it's not the end of the world ;) <br>Go to tutoring if you can or ask a friend to help you. A lot of times, I found I understand better if my friends explain it rather than a teacher.<br>Good luck and keep working at it ;)
