Well it's that wonderful time of year again, known as finals and I have two classes were the final really won't make that much of a difference.

Psychology of women: I have a 75 percent in that class and if I don't take the final that will be my grade(she drops the lowest exam). I need an 87% on the final to bump up my grade to a B so I don't know if I should take it or not. Thats actually on Thursday, the day I was supposed to be leaving to go home and see my parents but the final is at 3 so that doesn't get me home until about 8. I am still going home its just I had some things to do when I got there that I can't do if I take the final.

Complex Variables: There is like a 1/1000000 shot of me passing this at all and that is depending souly on the final exam but with such narrow odds of passing anyway I don't know if I am going to take this. Its on Monday at 3-5 so there isn't any real reason not to take it except it will more than likely not make a difference.

So should I take these finals or not?

Of course you should take them. 78% is not a great grade, and what do you have to lose (except time, which is the only thing students can trade in) if you take it?

Over the river and through the woods...
75% in Psychology of Women? Oh, I pity the girls you date! (LOL, I'm just joking...we really are pretty complex
Come on, you left yourself open to that one! )

Seriously though, I would study hard and take the test. I know that math is your strong point, but every class counts towards your GPA whether it seems important or not. So you get home a little later, if you can bump your grade up to a B it will be worth it. Good luck!
