Oh, that's good. A friend was telling me a C in college was like an A because you hardly ever get them in college. I also heard that in order to get As you have to do more than your assigned. Like if you're assigned a 5 page research paper, you should have 7 pages and include extra information.
Thanks for the info.
stop listening to that friend! hahah.
if a teacher says FIVE pages, do FIVE. thats what they want. they're not playing games or trying to trick you. and you'll second guess yourself a lot, because a lot of people think the professors want lots of pages of fluff, which typically really isn't true. really, just go by what they say, and you'll do fine.
i was assigned a paper to be 1.5-2 pages, and i wrote 1.5 pages and got an A+. so, really just do whats assigned. lots and lots of people in my class turned in 4-5-6 page papers, just because they didn't believe the professor and tried to add lots and lots of fluff.
and a C is definitely not a A, but getting a C doesn't mean you can't get an A, know what i mean?
the only difference is that a C is more. um. okay? in college than in high school. when youg et a c in high school its kindof a bad grade, but a C in college doesn't feel like a bad grade, you just know you can pull it up.
doing more than assigned can backfire on you pretty badly. just do whats assigned, but do it really well.
