MMMiii!

:D I’m only going to put this up for a day. XD

Tops wrote in his comment that I was brave to put up my grades here. I replied back that it just shows that even if you were a total failure at first, you can still succeed.

For those who don’t know, 1.00 is the highest, 3.00 is the lowest passing, 4.00 is conditional, 5.00 is fail. Inc is incomplete.

My first course or major was BS ECE (Electronics and Communications Engineering) at UP Diliman, College of Engineering. Out of the number of subjects I failed (did you count?) only 3 were not related to Engineering. I failed in PE because in the first one, my teacher disappeared for a while and when he came back, I got lazy to complete the requirements. In the second PE (FYI it was Walking for Fitness), I failed because I tripped and I kind of lost all will to attend the class which was at 8am, right before my Math 114 (Linear Algebra blah blah) which I had to take a Removal Exam for, and I got lazy as well, so my grade stayed conditional but I assume it has been registered as 5.00 by now.

A series of failures finally ended up with me getting dismissed from the College. There’s this rule that we have to pass 24 units each year. I could have easily shifted to Geodetic Engineering, but I knew that I didn’t want to deal with numbers anymore.
