College Grades Dropping - What's Going on?

[micromass]

Or did I come here asking for an objective explanation as to what might be going wrong

In my opinion, you got exactly that. We have no reason to not be subjective about you, we can only be objective (assuming your posts are accurate). So you got an objective assessment of your situation.

The problem here is that you don't like the objective explanation.

Also, if we say "the problem is you", then that is miles better than saying "the problem is the school". Why? Because if the problem is you then you can actually fix it! If the problem is the school, then you can't do anything about it. So it is better for you to say that the problem is you and to try to make yourself better. You will benefit way more from this than by blaming it on the school and doing nothing about it (even if the problem really is the school).

If I could prove it, I could complain to an authority. I could also change schools. It gives me several options that go beyond those I currently have...

OK, so why don't you take these options right now?? It seems like your mind is pretty much made up anyway.

What shocks me is that you can't be objective about this. Why is that so hard for you?

No, what you are looking for is for someone to reassure you that your school made a glaring error and everything will be alright. This is subjective in and of itself and I highly doubt you will find such a response here.

You could also change schools without "proof".

Why don't you upload some of the exam questions of your Integral Calculus course?? We can judge whether they are fair or not. I think this would be rather objective, no?

Maybe first he should clarify what it would even mean for grading to be unfair?

I don't get why you keep switching departments, this only shows that you're the only common factor for why you're getting low grades. Yes, it's great you had 50-60 A's, but the fact of the matter is- you ain't in CS no mo'.

I wouldn't expect to get A's in a subject other than physics and math if I were to study like I do in those classes, because the techniques are different.

To actually see if your questions were, indeed, unfair follow the advice of micromass, upload a few of the questions!

I earned an A.
I got a B.
It was a C.
He gave me a D.
He flunked me.
