    Spring '12 Grades!

    How did this semester treat you, BG?

    My semester was rather light, but only because it was my last and I only needed 10 credits:


    Evolutionary Biology, 3 credits: A
    General Physics II, 4 credits: A
    Biology Internship, 3 credits: S (pass)

    B.S. Biology & Chemistry minor done, Cumulative GPA: 3.90.

    I did really fucking shitty.

    B- Organic
    B+ Genetics (this seriously should have been an A, I have no idea how I didn't get an A, All tests about 90, 88 on lab final etc. I just don't know.... unless I did that bad on the final/lab notebook)
    B in Biological Basis for Human Behavior (fuck memorizing neural pathways, seriously dumb bitch)
    A in Bio internship (3 credits)

    B- lowest grade I've ever gotten in a core science class, well science class period (psych don't count).

    who mine? a class that let us interact and visit a medium and maximum security prison in new york state, a class that went into theoretical social psychology, hiking and backpacking that taught me cool boyscout stuff that i never learned as a kid, health psych is kind of bullshit ill give you that one, and uh us government was informative, apparently money talks and everything else walks...go figure. and race, crime, and justice taught me our justice system is inherently racist and set up to perpetuate inequality.

    was a pretty fun semester, just about done with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. GPA: 3.6

    Ohio State's still on quarters (last quarter before it switches to semesters) so I've still got 3 or 4 weeks before classes end and I get my grades >_>

    Depends on a lot of shit (test scores, recommendations, competition, the school itself)

    But that's still surprising.

    I don't even care about my grades this semester. I just care that I made it. I passed every class and I'm FINALLY done with my masters in mathematics and I've already started my masters in physics (or at least I've started on research with the professor who's going to be my advisor. No actual classes until fall though).

    C# Programming (ASP.NET): A-
    Into to Java: A
    Intro to Databases: A
    Image Animation Application: A
    Electronic Commerce: A
    General Psychology: B

    Pretty good, considering I'm still foggy on working with classes in all languages and working with states in ASP.NET.

    so im home

    the simplest explanation is that i am older and only applied to local graduate progams, as moving somewhere is not optimal for me (im 32 and somewhat content where i am). my plan was to only apply to top-notch english graduate programs nearby where i would not have to move. one of which being an ivy league school, who told me my writing sample was not appropriate (it was on the italian renaissance, where my field of study was english renaissance, whoop dee doo), the school i graduated from, which is a death sentence, and another prestigious school in NY, who also said no.

    im very independant, so my boss wrote me a letter of recommendation, which my english advisor literally yelled at me for (i attended random on campus stuff through local honor societies like nscs and dei, but the bare minimum as i also work)

    basically i knew i wouldnt get accepted this year because of self-limiting my choices for grad schools, but the idea of moving horrifies me

    my GRE scores while not great were decent, i basically screwed myself. if i had applied to grad schools in like wyoming im sure i would have been accepted, but again, i dont want to move too far. so basically i chose not to get accepted anywhere because im retarded

    im drunk and this probably didnt make sense but whatever

    Might want to avoid seeing a PhD as a golden ticket: http://chronicle.com/article/From-Gr...ool-to/131795/

    How valuable is going to grad school for humanities really?
