WHEW - passed my math class today!
 

I PASSED! :yay_jump:

I know it's just one SMALL step... but math has been my biggest hurdle in college and the reason I'm still so behind, because I was always terrified to take it, knowing how bad I am at it.

So I actually have to take two total non-credit classes first before getting into regular College Algebra (because I got a bad grade on my entrance exam - didn't take SATs).

Buuuttttt, I worked my BUTT off and studied so hard and did so much crap when over half the class just stopped showing up or dropped out. This week was down to crunch-time because we're on this program called MyMathLab and I was behind from the beginning - there's 12 tests total and each test you have to take at school (everything else you can do at home technically, but our classes were Tues & Thurs) and my professor was sooo willing to help me every step of the way. There was so much in between work between tests and my problem was that I would cram each section into one night or two nights and then have to be ready to take a test each class, and even came in on days when I didn't have class, etc.

So I think my professor saw how much work I was putting in and I was SO happy to hear today that I was technically in the "top 4" of the class - there was still some people behind ME and I was only one of three who completed the final today. I'll be in her summer course for my last non-credit class, and she gave me the code so I can get a head start (it begins in a little over a month) so I can get AHEAD for once in my life.

I know I'm babbling, but I'm not gonna lie, I'm proud of myself. It's probably such a small thing for most people but there were many times during this class where I felt like I had to drop out of college altogether because I thought I'd NEVER get it.

You needed a 70% to be considered passing - I ended up with a 70.93% - WHEW! :eek:

Congratulations! Now you can breathe a sigh of relief....for now. ;). Just keep doing what you are doing and I'm sure you will be fine. :)

Congrats Brittney so glad that your hard work payed off for you :)

Congrats

CONGRATULATIONS ARE IN ORDER!!!! You should be very proud of yourself....you worked your tail off and you achieved something worthy of being proud of!!! YOU CAN DO THIS!! DONT EVER DOUBT IT FOR ONE MINUTE! You may have to work a lot harder to get across the finish line, but in the end, YOU did whatever it took to get you there...nothing handed to you...nothing slipped by under the table....you started at the back of the pack, and you came out in the front of the pack! You should be VERY, VERY proud! YOU DESERVE THIS "PROUD WORTHY" MOMENT!!! AND NO ONE CAN EVER TAKE THIS MOMENT AND THIS ACCOMPLISHMENT AWAY FROM YOU!

Congratulations Brit! I struggled with Math as well growing up, so I know the feeling.

Girl, CONGRATS! What a relief to check that box. YOU DID IT!! Which doesn't surprise me one bit :).

Congratulations, Brit! That is awesome! :)

Congrats, Brit! I'm so proud of your work ethic--there are not many that I know of that are willing to bust butt like you did.:D

Attagirl! I never really like math so I always had to work so hard to get good grades in it & I understand where you are coming from. It makes you feel so good when you don't give up on yourself, work hard & get that great reward in the end. Now go celebrate this one a little bit! Indulge in something - let's see, for instance, ice cream, chocolate, make-up - or another collar for Jackson. :)

Or even a Mrs. Jackson? ;) :D

Congratulations...you certainly deserved it - well done you! :D Sally x
