| At least I'll be done with my accounting class. The big quiz is on Friday, so I could use some prayers/positive thoughts.
I will then know my letter grade about two weeks after that. Weaser has been really good with helping me with some of the accounting questions I have.
I've been through hell and back with this course, and I deserve a new guitar! Online accounting classes may work for some people, but not for me.
After I submit the quiz on Friday, I'll probably go out for some sangria.

Location: Marlton, NJ | Best of luck Michelle! Remain calm... if you don't know the answer right away - skip it and come back to it. (My daughter just took the SATs, so I'm brimming with advice ;) )
You'll do great!

Mike Thanks Mike! When I sat down and read some of the quiz questions yesterday, I realized that I've probably fogotten most of what I have learned.
Also, I just don't understand some of the questions! Arrgh!

Every so often, like several times a day, put down the books (or the computer), go to the mirror, look yourself dead in the eye and say, "I'm gonna ace this quiz," and mean it. Then go back to studying. It works like a charm. |

Then go back to studying. It works like a charm. Thank you, willblee! I just met on the phone with my tutor. I read to her some of my professor's critiques of my homework, and even she was a little confused by what the professor said. I'm so glad to know I wasn't the only one who was confused.
I just found out that I may have to wait a month for my final grade. I'm still praying that I get a C!

The good news is that I found a really good teacher about a week ago on YouTube named Susan Crosson. Now if I were in her class, I would have probably better than I have done with my current class. I'll have to watch some of her vids tonight.

Location: Boise, Idaho | I didn't want to be too blunt, but I figured that as long as you were praying, you may as well pray for a miracle. I'm pragmatic. I figure you should spend your time studying and save prayer for things you can't control.
A little diversion and brag. Our first daughter set the bar very high. She had straight As her whole life, except for one B in a basic art class. The second daughter called me to soften the possible blow that she might get a B her first year in college. The only way she could get an A was if she aced the final. I told her she knew what she had to do. She graduates with straight As Sunday. Top student in both her majors and will be giving a speech as valedictorian of the graduating class. My only part in this is convincing them there were no limits. You'll get it eventually if you keep working at it. |

| Hmm...that is tempting!
Well, I just finished the quiz this morning. I got an 84 on the first half, and a 56 on the other half. Well, now my average is 78.55, so I'm pleased. The teacher has to grade several homework assignments and discussion questions.
I've done well on the homework so far, so I guess I'm not really worried. I'm just so glad it is over!
