Hello all,

I just got the results of the last two DSST's I had to take. I got a 66 on Intro to Business and a 48 on Principals of Finance. This is a "skin of the teeth" pass as I needed a 46. Oh Well! It is a "C" at Excelsior so it will bring down my GPA slightly but.....at least its not another $1000.00 class and 3 more months! All I have to do is pass the three classes I am currently enrolled in and I will have my degree. This should be in August!
I am truly having a hard time with Algebra through BYU and have to pass 3 proctored exams to pass. At least I get one "take-over" try on each one if I fail. I need to think positively. The two classes I am taking through Excelsior are almost over....Thank Goodness. One of the professors is great (Business Strategy) and the other is a real DUD (Operations Management). He posted something incorrect last week, got everyone all stirred up looking for an exam that wasn't there...then acted like we were all stupid. When I called him on it....he was unpleasent (as usual) and then I magically got a 15 out of 30 on the last of my 6 assignments. I had been getting 21 to 26 but...either my work really declined or he was just getting back at me. I just keep thinking....I ONLY HAVE TO PASS! Just a word of advice...I would avoid this particular professor if I was going to take a class at Excelsior. I intend to complain...but considering the grade change with my last comment...I am waiting until he can't lower it anymore. Good luck to all and , PLEASE...Everyone send good thoughts so I can pass Algebra!
