I offer the challenge to anyone to go back and count the number of times this guy has boasted about his fucking GPA. Just because you say "not trying to brag" doesnt mean you arent bragging. NO ONE CARES. fuck find something else to boast about would ya, im sick of seeing you throw this in peoples faces all the time when it really adds nothing to the discussion.

To the OP, I failed the midterm for that course pretty badly also, but was still able to pass the course with a respectable grade. If you factor in all the other easy marks you have in that class as stated previously, you will see that it is very possible to still pass the class. There is no point in dropping it now. Just work hard and you will be able to pull through for the final. Dont let one bad midterm demoralize you

But seriously blankfein, enough with your stupid GPA already

Lol I checked and L_Blankfein actually does indeed mention their grades constantly. What do you do with people like that though? What can be done?

Thank you so much for checking!!! He actually went so far the one time as to try chirping me that his GPA was probably higher than mine... well i have one thing to say to him,,, if your so smart and the only meaningful thing you ever talk about is your grades.... wheres the other .3? 11.7 is cute and all... but its no 12
haha glad to see some people agree with me too. i wont keep this one going tho, just dont drop the course OP, you can still pass the class

"I have an 11.7 average, I am in Health Sci,' btw." - Blankfein.

everything makes sense now.

Also, a lot of their posts don't even stop at mentioning their 12s, they have to add they didn't even buy the textbook for the class.

All I can tell you is this: if you don't practice any sort of math....it doesn't get easier. If you have to take the course, get it done now. If you try to take any math or physics course after a break from doing math, you're screwed.
