I just barely missed an A. I got a B in my calc I class :-p , thanks in large part to the people who answered my questions in this forum this semester, and those who answered other people's questions which I also found useful.

The first time I took Calc I, I got a C, but I feel I deserved an F. I understood nothing, and I wasn't ready for Calc II. This time I got a B and understood almost everything. It wasn't a lack of understanding. Only dumb mistakes on the final exam kept me from an A. So next semester, it's Calc II. Get ready for more questions :smile: .

Thanks again to everyone here who helped me with the tough homework problems this semester:wink:
