I don't know. Is there a foreign object in any of your orifices that has a human attached to it?

OK TOPIC CLOSE.
This was supposed about getting help and maybe for others too. Not too many people are posting stupid shit , including myself. So how about we stop eating each other out, and show others respect and love. Mostly the latter.

I really hate it when someone uses the word "rape" in the casual way that the OP has used it. It's pretty ignorant.
And to the OP: No, you're absolutely NOT being "raped." You need to get off your ass and work hard, rather than ask inane questions on the internet.

So according to you, if you're on your ass you're being raped?

And Hey Shakespeare, why can't I use the word"rape". One of it's meanings is "to be carried off by force". And I am being carried off by force from success after almost failing a test.

Now considering, I get my ass back on track and do all the reading, problems, CAPA, etc... Can I still make it in 70-80% range?

Assumptions:
- You average 75% on the labs and tutorials.
- You do 80% of the CAPA.
- Full iClicker marks.
- Grade distribution hasn't changed since my year, meaning:
- Tests: 10% x2
- CAPA: 2.5%
- Labs: 15%
- Tutorials: 7.5%
- iClicker: 5%
- Exam: 50%
Labs and tutorials: .75(22.5) = 16.875/22.5
Test 1: 0.5(10) = 5/10
CAPA: 2.5/2.5
iClicker: 5/5
Total: 29.375/40
75% on the labs and tutorials isn't too hard, nor is 80% of the CAPA and full iClicker marks.
If you get perfect on test 2 and the exam, you'll finish with a 89.375. A high 11 that'll probably get pushed to 12.
Speaking more realistically, if you apply yourself and get 80% on test 2 and 70% on the exam, you'll finish with 72.375, which is a 7. Not unreasonable at all, but leaves a lot of room to improve.
Hopefully this paints you a picture of what to aim for. But that doesn't matter since you're going to try your best regardless, right?
