I know i usually dont like people that rant, but i seriously got to see if anyone else has experienced anything else like this in there high school years. Alright i am a Junior in high school and am in chemistry, and right now we are doing Molar masses, and a couple days ago we had a quiz over some of it, and my teacher makes us write out all these steps to do em, and i knew going into the quiz i wasnt going to do very well since i really didnt understand it, so anyways, we get the quiz and its 4 questions worth 10 points each because of all the steps we do there like a point each, so i write out all the steps and everything assuming i am doing it right and i get my quiz back today and i got a 0/40!!!! i mean holy ****!!!!!, i have hated my chemistry teacher all year, i have told him to his face that i hated his class and he told me to maybe dropping his class and take and easier one( think it was just to try to scare me to make me work harder) so i went up to him one day and was like what can i take if i drop? so he gave me the options i could do and i think i sort of surprised him because he had a stunned look on his face and was like i suggest you dont drop, so i stayed with it since, but we are almost done with the school year, and he keeps pushing on, and we have like 3 quizzes every week from now on. Has anyone had a teacher like this? EDIT: I almost forgot to tell you about how earlier in the year he had us take these things called A or F quizzes, dont know if any of you have had these before(if you have i would be surprised) and usually the quizzes were like 10 questions, and if you could only get one wrong, since that would a 90% but if u missed more than that u had to come in early in the mornings and retake it until you passed it, which really pisses me off, we had one the other day, luckily i passed it. What i am really trying to say is i HATE MY CHEMISTRY TEACHER WITH A PASSION!!!!!!!
Wait until you get a challenging job, lol. You will long for the days of High School and your measly 3 quizzes a week.
Actually i am think i might wanna be a teacher , but a latin teacher so i wont ever be near chemistry. Thats if thats what i do, thats just what i have in the air for now.
On the first day of health class, my new health teacher was reading her role call. She got to the guy that was always called before me, said his name, then stopped . Looked around room, saw me, growled, and then asked me if i was Vincent's brother. Which I was. Now that I think about it....she was just like Snape except evil.
High School chemistry was the biggest rip off ever. I went in there expecting to make deadly poisons and blow sh*t up...damn teacher starts talking about moles, Avagadro's number, and covalent bonds... I was like, Screw this! Gimme a bottle of f*ck*ing sulfuric acid and get the hell out of my way, you boring toad!! At least in biology I got to slice up dead frogs...
Actually my lips do get really chapped during the winter cuz i play bball and i lick my lips a lot while playing, but i dont cry... but thats a diff story, and almost doesnt count.
Worst Exam ever: Phyisics in highschool. I took the honors class and on our first circuit test I got a 10. I should have got a zero because he gave me 10 points for putting my name on the exam. Lowest score in the class. I never heard the end of it from my friends. Good times. Worst teacher ever: Mrs. Rudd -English, 8th grade. Gave EVERYONE C's and D's just to **** with us. Closely followed by Calculus I in college. The teacher literally went from positive and negative numbers to launching the space shuttle in less than one class. Scored a 33 on the first exam. 7 people finished the class. The rest of us said **** u. Hardest teacher ever: Microbiology (junior year). This guy gave fill in the blank tests and mutiple choice tests from a 400 page micro book. Nobody can remember that much **** especially when they have never seen it before. My worst exam answer: Pheromones, Biology 101, I stated that humans give them off. Teacher ripped me for it... Telling me I was a moron in big red letters on the exam paper. Huge letters I will never forget. And I was. I totally did not study. But in the ultimate irony of my entire college life, some research now suggests they may exist. Ha ha you **** for a teacher! I was ahead of my time. Or so I claim.
Ohhhh your a funny one, i dont know maybe its just the teacher i have, btw are you in high school also?
Sonics, If the worst thing that ever happens to you in your life is failing some rinky dink high school Chemistry quiz, then consider yourself lucky. You could have to put up with people playing politics, asskissers, not having summers off, never having the time to take vacation, etc.....in other words, a REAL JOB!
Easy jr., I'm just having a little fun breakin' your balls. I live in the real world far removed from teachers who "hate" me and "ruin my life"... As I work for a University here in town, it is now my responsibility to be the "bad guy" and ruin people's lives. Think your life is tough in High School? Try finding out that you are getting kicked out of school for the second time and that you are not allowed to come back to your chosen major, EVER. That's what I get to tell people, now. Sounds fun, huh?
Math? I was in Statistics my Senior year. Science? Biology Senior year that some freshman were taking. The left side of my brain just doesn't function. Cuz meanwhile I was in AP English my Senior year. AP. And finished the course with an 88. I fvcking killed that class. Relax, dude. There will be courses and teachers you feel like dropping and/or shooting. But as long as you pass, all is well.
This probably won't make you feel any better, FlyerFanatic, but a cousin of mine was kicked out of his High School for telling his science teacher he knew more about science than his teacher did. The teacher called him out on it, so my cousin started to rattle off some science, asked the teacher to explain it, and when the teacher said, "That's ridiculous. You can't expect me to know about that stuff! And you don't either." My cousin then proceeded to explain everything the teacher couldn't. And he was right. This was more than the science teacher could take (my cousin was brilliant... 150 IQ... but very confrontational) and he marched him down to the office. After my cousin blew his top with the Principal, it was off to another school for him. It was the only time we had a class together, so I saw the whole thing. My signature is a quote from a novel that he loved. I miss the guy.
