Final Grades

Looks like I should graduate… I think.

I was actually surprised with the first three grades to tell you the truth. Medieval Civilization I figured I’ll be getting a C unless I aced the final considering my midterm was a C/C+ and my paper was a C. I either must have done a lot better than I thought on the final or the professor had a very good grading curve! Old Testament was also a nice surprise since I knew I was guaranteed at least an B even if I did horrible on the final (got an A on the midterm). I thought I did pretty well on the final and apparently, well enough to still maintain my A average as the final grade. Linear Optimization… that I kind of figured I would have gotten after getting raped on the final. I knew there was no chance for anything better than a B+ if I aced the final but after taking the exam, had to pray to just pass instead! Kind of sucked since I had an A on the midterm but my homeworks dropped me to barely an B before the final… figured I had a shot at doing decently… but… well, I guess not. ^_^;;

So I barely mantained above a 3.0 overall GPA with a 2.8 GPA for my final semester at Rutgers. I’m still on the fence on how “good” or “bad” this all was… but at least now, I think I’ve done everything I need to do to graduate with a BA in Computer Science and an minor in Psychology. I’ll know for sure when Waisoon double checks for me to see if I’m on the graduation list or if I get a express letter from Rutgers saying I can’t graduate… three to four days from now I’ll definitely know my final outcome…

Looking at my transcripts of grades of my four years at Rutgers, interesting how I initially started with a 3.786 GPA after my first semester and then from there, just went all down hill to a final GPA of 3.078. Started Spring 2004 that I never saw an semester GPA above 3.0… haha… before that, I would do great in the fall semesters and not-so-good in the spring ones. How the time changed my work ethnics and motivation for the worse.
