HUH???

I went to my first college algebra class today. I don't remember a lot of what was "review" problems. It has been 17 years or more!!! So instead of struggling along or flunking out of this class, I decided to drop back one level in math to Intermediate Algebra. I am just not ready for college level algebra, I have forgotten too much! This means I won't get to take Calculus next semester, I will be taking College Algebra, then maybe taking Calculus over the summer. :(

Crazy!!!

I went to register for classes at Midlands Tech today. It was late registration day. I had previously tried to register on the last day of normal registration to be told that I couldn't get into MAT 130 Calculus because I didn't have the prerequisite. So I had to email the department head over the weekend to get into a different math class. So I got up to Midlands early today. It was a NIGHTMARE!! I was send out of the registration line 3 times because I didn't have something that I needed. So $1,000 and some change later, I am now registered for Fall semester that starts on August 24Th.

Change of Plans

I am going to Midlands Tech for 2 semesters instead of USC. I am going to take a Fiction class & College Algebra this semester and then Calculus next sememster. Then hopefully off to USC in the fall of next year. Not what I had antisipated but oh well.

Got Denied

I have been trying to apply to USC since the beginning of summer to finally finish my last two years of my bachelor's degree. Well after complications with my transcripts, I finally got my letter in the mail on Saturday. I was denied!!! WHAT??? According to USC, I don't have a 3.0 or higher and I have never taken a college level Calculus class. I can understand not admitting me to the School of Business because of the Calculus class but to deny me from the school all together. Not sure where they are getting I don't have a 3.o or higher, according to my transcripts I have a 3.59.

Of course when I went up there today to talk with someone, NO ONE from admission is there until Wednesday. :(
