I've been getting around a 75-80% for my final grades and I'm sure that those marks won't get me into university (I live in Canada btw) I'm doing my homework and stuff, but the stuff just never sticks in my head.

Do you guys ever worry about this? =/ What do you do when you're in this kind of position?

75-80% and you can't get into uni??? are you sure? Is your grades upon 100?

If it was I didn't know standards in Canada are that high.

Rest assured, Those grades can definitely bring you somewhere. Unless you're pinning for courses like Medicine or something coz that requires like a 95-100.

Well, work harder i guess if you wanna hit the 80's and above range. lol. Do lots of past year papers, group study etc etc. Don't compare yourself to other people coz it only demotivates you.

You sure 75-80% won't get you into Uni? Have you checked the requirements for the particular course you are interested in? I would do that before getting worked up about it. smile.gif

Yep unless you are aiming for Dent/Med/Pharmacy/Engineering, only then I would be concerned.

Well I had no idea what I'm planning to go into. Either business and/or optometry....? lol. Business here is really competitive ):
