hey guys,
im a Junior in undergrad going for a bs in professional physics.
I have always loved physics and always wanted to do something in that field.
I am a pretty good student, i get b's and a's and this semester was my first in upper division courses so my grades are suffering as a result. (pretty big step up)
But mainly in my Partial differential eq class. I am scared i am going to fail or get a d.
How much will that affect me in the long run? the teacher only has office hours the days i work and i live 30 minutes from where i go to school so office hours are slightly hard to ever make, not to mention those are the same days as test reviews.
The teacher is horrible and the tests are way different than anything we do. he tests us to understand the theory and its particulars but yet in class i feel like we do nothing. i know i sound like I am putting the blame all on him, but really i know it comes down to me ultimately.
THe average test scores are like a 60% along with the homework scores which are 50%.
so i know I am not the only one.
Any input? I am stressing hardcore over it. thanks a lot guys
