so yeah the 1st quarter i was in regular math and i got 100% so i moved up

then barely avoided a D+ or something.

Now I'm failing 2/3 of the tests in advanced math. why not just switch back?

nonononono. either staying or leaving both make me sick. I have my friends, more fun, and a better impression in advanced math. and worse grades. I thought I could change but i got another bad score on the test this friday...time is running out to pour out all the redos i owe. i can't go back to that black hole sun they call "regular math"

advice?

Ouch. I suggest talking to your math teacher to get help on whatever you need to get help on. Studying your subject can help too... getting help from friends or classmates will help out a bit too...

And of course, hand in all those redoes as soon as you can...

I'm in advanced math, I'ts WAY more fun than regular. The best way to catch up is to invest a little time in studying, maybe 15-25 min. Try testing yourself on the subject you're currently on. Oh yeah, and don't drop out. Being in advanced math means something very important. wink

I have the exact same problem with Language Arts and Social Studies.

Hey, I'm not in advanced!

All be it, my school doesn't offer advanced math, or advanced anythin for the matter.

Well your school doesn't offer it so you can't be.

Unless they just don't tell you. That worked so well in elementary that we all knew which ones were anyway.

No, I have a habit of spying on teachers, and I do it almost as often as my" Accidentally reading important government documents that I'm most likely not supposed to read".

Anyway, I believe there is a serious error in the title. You seem to have replaced the "is" in "Failing is Fun" With the word "or". Hmm, interesting.

Joking. Exept for the bit about my habits.

Also, I'm in what would be American Middle School, and Canadian too, up until last year. sad

littletonkslover, maybe you could try to get a tutor? That way, you could stay in class with your friends and improve your grade. Also, the advanced math class might prepare you for future classes better, if you understand the material. If you don't think a tutor will help, maybe you should switch back.

That's not very nice... Besides, it's illogical. Purely by the definition of "average," not everyone can be above average. Also, just because a person isn't great at math doesn't mean he or she is dumb. We can't all be great at everything. Some of my smartest friends are in regular math classes.

Um. It was there... And bananaman114 quoted it too. Oh well. I can delete that part of my post if you want me to.

Yeah, I realized that was just my school.
