I don't even know if this is possible. But I studied harder than I ever have for any test before... I made sure I could work the problems and knew the material, and I am about 99.99% sure I failed my Project Management exam.
The profs exams are not multiple choice.. essay only (with a couple of problems to work out).. they are timed (2 hours). Basically broken down to 2 small essay questions, 2 problems to work out, and one big essay question worth double the points of the other questions.
I did pretty good on the first one.. I scored an 80. And I figured I would do OK since I had one of those tests under my belt and I studied so hard.
I failed.
I drew a complete blank when I got the test and I went into panic mode.
I answered the essays with the little information that I could remember, and I finished one of the two problems (although I'm not sure if I did it right). And needless to say I walked home crying yesterday.
After one of the girls made me feel better, I called my mom.. and surprise, I cried again.
I don't know what went wrong. I prepared for it during spring break and I KNEW my stuff
Now I'm really scared. It's too late to drop the course, and even if I could, I'm supposed to graduate next semester, and I don't think I could handle another class on my already full schedule if I have to retake it.
I've heard horror stories about this happening, but up until now it had never happened before (to me at least) and now I don't know what to do.
I think maybe part of it is because I have 5 tests in a span of 1.5 weeks.. and even though I am not taking part in sorority stuff this week and next, I still feel so overwhelmed
I'm not sure what to do (if anything) to salvage my project management grade. I hate to feel like I am settling, but I just really want a C in this class so I don't have to retake it. I'm not so sure that is going to happen though.
My mom & my friends say I should talk to the prof about it, but I don't think he will do much to help me? He figures it's a senior level class and extra credit was something we did when we were freshmen.
I'm really scared and don't know what to do
I completely bombed a very important test
