I got an A in anth 001!!! [I don't know how I did it, but I did it. I'll ask Michael how I did on the exam...]
I also got an A [numerical +] in Ben's class. I will continue to say the numerical plus. Because I did earn an A+. Unless of course he did give those extra points on my paper to E-hobbit, like I said he should if he wasn't going to give me an A+, since she's in his other class. And I still did all that work for him. I totally got an A+, even if it won't look shiny on my transcript. I'll draw it in.
I got a B+ in primates. That might have to do with the 77 I got on the paper. Even a 100 on the final would only give me a 90. So the B+ means I did pretty well on the final, even though I had no clue what I was talking about for parts. Like we had to predict kin selection for altruism and name species, and I knew about different behaviors, but I totally guessed on the species.
No grade for Hellerstein, obviously, because I haven't written the paper. Her e-mail has been evil for the past day and bounces everything back, so I can't ask her about my thesis stuff and I can't show her what I'm doing for the paper. Bad webmail. Very bad. You should be ashamed of yourself.
So my major GPA is now a 3.86, which is less shiny than my 4.0. But still pretty darn shiny. My regular GPA went up from a 3.54 to a 3.57. I'm not sure what the Hellerstein grade will do to it. I'll probably get an A- or B+.
