Title: Back to School
Post by: SirMystiq on August 03, 2004, 10:49:52 PM: It\'s back to school for me in about 2 weeks.

Kind of sad. This summer went by way to fast but it was fun...HA...not really I worked my ass off.

Damn Circuit City

Anyways I\'m going to be a senior!!

YAY!!

05!!!

I could of graduated last year but I decided not to. I\'ll just get some more college credits. Which by the way I\'m proud to announce that I have a total of 5 AP CREDITS!!!

That means that I save money in college!!!

I passed the English, Calculus, Computer Science(C++), World History and Physics!!!!

But my rank isn\'t very good. It was pretty good but those smart white girls are one tough crowd to beat.

Anyways this year I\'m taking Calc BC, English 4, US History and some other classes. I\'m not slacking off (that much) unlike my other people.

I just thought I would share!!

GPA is on a scale from 1-4

Mine isn\'t so good. I had alot of success passing tests but classes...not very good. Mine is up in the high twos.

Title: Back to School
Post by: SirMystiq on August 04, 2004, 06:10:16 AM: I\'ve always thought that the scale was 0-4 everywhere.

I worked at Burger King for like 2 weeks before getting a job at Circuit City. It\'s harder than you think, you don\'t have to be "smart" but you have to be quick and you sure as hell have to be good at multi-tasking. I worked drive-thru and since I was the only one (packing, taking orders and taking the money) It was too damn much multi-tasking.

And before you can say that I\'m a janitor at CC, I work at the Computer and Camcorder section!!

Post by: square_marker on August 04, 2004, 11:13:49 AM: GPA\'s are highly overrated. I gained a 3.73 on the 4.0 scale and a 28 on my ACTs. I didn\'t take much sports classes except football conditioning.

The ACTs are also kind of misleading. I scored low in English and Reading with 24 and 26 but I had a 33 in Natural Science and 29 in Math. I suppose it\'s a balance but I hate seeing a composite of 28 when I got a 33 on the part which means something to me and my major in college.

I miss high school football so much. There was so much pride and tradition which went into those Friday nights. I literally split blood on that field! lol

Post by: PSX_J on August 04, 2004, 01:09:34 PM: Yea I must admit...theres nothing like Friday nights. Especially at the small schooled I played at where the whole entire town showed up to root you on. There is no feeling like it...but every since graduating the only thing I\'ve had my heart set on is becoming a Marine. I cant wait for bootcamp.
Title: School :(
Post by: Everhart07 on August 04, 2004, 08:22:44 PM: School starts back up on August 16th for me. I ended last year with a 3.97 GPA and being ranked 14th out of 397. I took a break from football this year but am still playing baseball and basketball.

Damn School..... Summer seems to short nowadays.

Post by: MPTheory on August 05, 2004, 05:22:52 AM: I just applied for graduation at my college on Monday. I have one more simple class, plus my internship (which is going to be where I work currently anyway). Good God I can\'t wait to be completely finished with school.
