A few minutes ago i deicided to check my Finance class website to check where the final exam is tommorow night. Upon doing so i notice he has posted the curves for the class as of yet. He was very vague on how the actual curve would work and how much each exam was worth. After a few minutes of pluggin around some numbers of the grades i had previously gotten (thought i had at least a B earlier), i thought i failed the class, miserably.... My heart DROPPED.... you know that feeling... My biggest concern wasnt the class itself, but the fact that i would loose my scholorship with a grade like that... Frantically i grabbed the syllabus and started digging for any info to prove myself wrong about my grade. THANK GOD!!!!! It was a typo on his webpage!!! Every exam was worth 100 instead of the listed 200 points on the website (84/100 instead of the 84/200 as i was reading it)...

Anyone else ever had a mishap like this? my heart is still racing...

Always know how much you can slack off within the first week of classes.

It's why they hand out syllabi.

I know how ya feel!

I took all of my classes on the basis of "How much can I fvck off in here and still pass?"
