If you miss one thing in physics, older stuff keeps piling on you so you're screwed. Harsh lesson I learnt last semester. Stuff we're learning right now is even more difficult but I'm managing it somehow.

Ugh I'm probably going to have to take Physics next year. Since my worst subject is math I probably won't do well i nit. Hopefully that's not the case. Right now I'm taking AP Bio and AP Chem and I'm doing well in those.
 
Protip: Take College Algebra and AP Calculus your Junior and Senior year - you'll never have to take mathematics in college.
 
I'm taking AP Physics and AP World History my freshman [this] year, as well as Mechanical Engineering. Which are all annoyingly tough courses and I shouldn't be in Mechanical Engineering to begin with, but oh well.

Physics isn't that hard, just a lot of memorizing and plugging in and formula manipulation. Actually, no, that's a lie. AP Physics is hell and I don't wanna be there. I really wish I had the choice to take Chem.

Except I had to take Linear Algebra.

Are you learning mechanical physics or EM?

When I begin my AA in Computer science this spring, I'll be starting my mathematics courses in College Algebra, so hopefully that goes all well.

Currently, mechanical. Eventually, both. Mechanical isn't that hard though, it's mostly the theory that gets me.

...take a math class this winter.

There's a lot of people taking classes during the winter, from what I can tell.

Trust me, the math classes may stop, but you'll be doing math your whole life. How much of it and at what level depends on what you do.
 
Where I live, that is failing, bro (<65%). My math skills are B to A- worthy, so I've never really hit a grade like that.

But then math is also boring, so there's that.
 
I wish that 50% was the case, but I'm pretty sure not...

Unless you count the AP curve, which can be huge. On one test, I had a raw score of sixty. Due to the curve, it was an eighty-one.
 
When I was in middle school, I, honestly used to get a lot of fifties. d: Didn't study much, and always kept myself distracted with video games and internet. I've improved myself quite a bit since then, though!
 
Passing in high school was more than 60%. Hence my 60.68% grade still counting as a pass.

In college, it's 70% here. I only have one class (which is three classes in one), but my grade always hovers around 73%. I'm trying my best, but no matter how much work I put in, my grade just stays there.
 
At my school, 59.5% is the lowest possible D. 69.5% is a low C, 79.5% is a low B, and so on. Basically, it's .5% lower than the standard 10% marks that everyone generalizes.
