I just took my last exam and I feel that I will fail and have to retake it

assistant

true!
user

have you felt this way with prior exams? if so, did you really fail or did you do okay?
assistant
Question
No, this was the first time I really did not study for this exam Because I had 5 class this semester
user

wow 5 classes is a lot! So you didn't have time to study? Did you go to class and do the work throughout the semester?
assistant
Restatement or Paraphrasing
Yea it was a lot of classes. I tried to attend the lectures, but I was falling behind
user

I wonder if you can contact the professor and go over your exam with him/her to set your anxiety at ease?
assistant
Providing Suggestions
Unfortunately I cannot since he does not teach during the winter semester
user
null
how do you get your exam grade and test papers back?
assistant
Question
I took it last week, he will not release until the end of this week. I will await my remediation papers
user
null
have you spoken to people in the class with you?
assistant
Question
Yea we had a big cheating group since it wasn't on examsoft but we all struggled hard
user
null
maybe he'll curve the grade then if a lot of people didn't do well
assistant
Providing Suggestions
Nah it's a professional class. No curves since our class size is only 25 people
user
null
oh wow. hopefully you can re-take it then if you really didn't do well. I bet if you go through your notes and your book and compare to test questions you did better than you thought!
assistant

Yea do you want to finish and quit this hit?
user
null
if you're good you can quit (I can't!)

Damn, they want us to chat for 15 minutes. How are you? You stressed out?

I'm majoring in biology. It is very tough I'll tell you that This semester I took 19 credits. That was a mistake
user

that's insane! I did Chem and Bio ONE semester at the same time - with 8 hours of labs a week - I quickly changed majors. I respect what you're doing!
