Tell us your hardest classes and why they are hard. I have included a multiple choice poll to help in your responses.

The Class I voted on was Symbolic Logic, which I took in college and it was the worst nightmare of my life. You had to translate sentences into symbolic arguments and do these absurd things called proofs and truth tables.....AWEFUL!

If I really care about a class or if it's a requirement for my major, I tend to do well in it. If not, I don't really do as well.

Ditto- I already have my 28 credits I need to graduate, but I still have to drag my butt to school for 4 classes that I really don't need credits for. I'm passing the 3 out of 4, but the Humanities class is pretty boring. When I'm bored then I don't do well.

my english class-cuz my teacher is a pain. she grades us on the standards she sets for herself....but she's nicer this semester, since we have a research paper and all....but i think she hates me. cuz i never study for tests and everything and she's probably wondering what the hell i'm doing in honors anyway. well, whatever, she can go do....whatever she wants.

dawsongirl · 04-02-2002, 12:18 AM

All of the above! Oh...

Classes I don't care about is the worst. I have one class I still like- Rock 'n Roll History.

Class too early is another.

Bad subject is yet another.

Don't do homework. I guess that should have been my number one. I HATE READING ANYTHING!!

dawsongirl · 04-02-2002, 12:21 AM

Oh, my being sick and no attendance taken are also reasons I don't go to class. Naughty, naughty...

Wel, I have this really bad math teacher who doesn't know how to teach. He lectures the whole 90 minutes about Clinton and the national debt and about politics and all that, and I transfered into that class at semester, so I have no clue what goes on in that class. I am so lost! And I don't do the homework, beacause what is the point when you don't even know how to do it? It's Algebra II and I'm glad I'm doing bad in only 1 class.

God this really sounds like one of the teachers I have. I honestly don't think one of my teacher's can teach. He starts talking about religion and then starts talking about cell phones. It definitely classifies in one of those wtf moments. The teacher does other things that seems to point to the fact that he can't teach, but I won't go into all that here.

I'm not in college but honors earth science is hard for me because I dont understand the material and my teacher is boring.

Angel4ever · 04-02-2002, 03:47 PM

My least favorite class would be Symbolic Logic.... English and math.

Math is my least because it starts at 6:45 am

*Marilyn Monroe* · 04-02-2002, 08:47 PM

Im in jr high, but im taking a high school course. (Geometry) I hate the teacher cuz she is...well....a not so nice word! I don't ever understand anything that she teaches and she just gives you the answers when you come in after school for help, which isn't all bad either!!

Also, my science teacher is a MAJOR bitch! If you don't understand something, she tells you to stay after, but when you do, she yells at you and acts like it's all your fault that she cant get off her lazy butt and teach instead of handing out the papers and telling us to get to work! OK can anyone tell that I had a bad day in Science today?? lol

I'm having trouble in only one class, Pre-Calculus. Even though I just started taking it, it is the most confusing thing I've ever done.

I understand your pain. I flunked Calc.

Brian · 04-02-2002, 10:30 PM

Chemistry is the toughest. I am autistic (high-functioning) and the material is hard. The class is really disruptive, too. The second hardest for me is Algebra 2.
