How Many A's Did You Get Last Quarter/Semester?

We just got our grades so I thought grades would make a good discussion topic. I can say that this time I did not think I would be able to get any A's despite working possibly harder than I've ever worked before for my classes. But somehow I managed to get A's in 2 out of 4 classes! I got an A in biotechnology and an A in molecular biology. I almost got an A in zoology, but ended up with an A- that I was still proud of. And then I was happy to get a C+ in the lab for zoology because that class is absolutely insane (if you've taken it, you know what I'm talking about... if not, good luck!). So how many A's did you get? Did you feel like you had to work pretty hard for them?

I took two classes last semester. I got an A- in one of them and an A in the other one. I feel like I should have had to work harder on them, but maybe I feel like that because I was only taking two classes and not a full course load like I used to take before I started working a full time job.

Wow nice! Not bad. Yeah, I used to work full time. Well, actually the craziest thing I ever did was work 60 hours a week (one 40 hour a week full time job plus a part time job) and then take 12 units. This time I'm working only 20 hours and taking 16 units. I'd like to work more but I can't get the hours anyway, so I figured now I should be able to finally finish school.

I got 3 A's the last semester I finished and 2 B's - of course, that was in the Spring of 1975

Wow congrats! I'm hoping this spring will be my last one with courses at this school. Then onto bigger and hopefully better things!

No As. I used to work really hard in school back in my elementary/high school days, but now as a university student I have work, my apartment... too many distractions to make myself unambitious I guess is what I am saying. ;) But I put some work in and do fairly well considering (a smathering of Bs and B+s)

This past semester i had 4 classes & got A's in all 4. I worked hard for them. But this semester i am getting into the hard stuff so hopefully i still do good this semester. Good luck everyone.
