Depends on the class. What subject?anyone else who has been unsuccessful in one subject? currently taking a major requirement for the fourth time now

Math really sucks. Took trig and precalc in high school and somehow passed with a B or BC for each. Idegi.
I have one more math requirement this semester. Pushed that sucker off until the very last semester like a boss.
Fourth? Yikes. My school will not let you take something more than 3 times. Good luck passing it this time.
Accounting.Depends on the class. What subject?
Thanks. My school has the same rule and I am currently taking it at a JC center in my area.Fourth? Yikes. My school will not let you take something more than 3 times. Good luck passing it this time.
I will not succumb to that idea. I admit I've slacked to learn the principles mainly because of my disinterest in the subject. In the three times I've taken it, teachers have all explained the principles differently and have developed different class structures. Accounting is a very sensitive subject because the language in transactions can sometimes be tricky. The current class I am taking is aimed to assist those who have taken the class and haven't met the requirement. It will help me succeed to finally pass this subject. I am, however, shy of 18 units until I graduate so I will just keep my head up and shoot for an A.Damn, so what happens if you fail 3 times? Gotta switch the major up? :/

I haven't been that unlucky. Failed Single Variable Calculus II the first time I took it. Came back the following semester and took with a graduate student teaching the course (she gave us handouts every class! Didn't realize how much they helped in grade school) and passed with a B. Failed Microecon 2 last semester and am taking it again, with the notoriously harder professor this time since I don't have a choice Wish me luck…I'm already scared.

Yeah. Although I think that's just general policy, some departments can be more strict. Mine will only let you fail a class in the major once. After that you're on probation. If you fail it again, you're usually kicked out of the department.
My math class is actually not too difficult. Great instructor, gives handouts, only makes us do "suggested" homework (which I use for studying). I'm not too worried.I feel like it's just easier to get your math requirements out of the way as soon as you can (like fresh out of high school) because the longer you wait the more you forget. I've had friends who go back to math classes after like 4 years and they can't even remember the simple stuff anymore, which makes college math hard for them.
Ouch dude. I know how it feels to have that harder professor. Best of luck.Damn, so what happens if you fail 3 times? Gotta switch the major up? :/

I've only failed 3 courses in college.
- Cobol 1 (Computer programming 1) - I wasn't taking the class seriously, I missed 4 classes and they dropped my grade by a whole letter. I ending up retaking it and passing it.
- Aural Skills II - Sight reading music is hard enough for me, but having to Sing it back by voice in the right pitches isn't exactly the easiest thing in the world. - Took this course a second and passed.
- Calculus - I suck at math... It wasn't the brightest move to take this class and it was about a Year and 1/2 since i have taken pre-calc. I have taken it a second time and did okay but may try to take it again to get a better grade. Have to get a not from the Dean tho...
u dont have to keep bring up the fact that you work in your schools la department we already know ur a didlin NERDthat's how most colleges seem to work, from what i understand. i started working as an assistant in my liberal arts college's advising department, so i now see a lot of students coming in with third attempt forms. if you're not approved, you get dropped from the major with no way of getting back in.
Agree...They start you out with COBOL? That's...interesting. Certainly not a good way to rope in prospective comp sci majors...
I never really had too much issue with math classes (went up to Calc III. Didn't want to get into multivariable calculus though..). I could have gone for a math minor or even double major, but at the time I didn't have the interest in doing that (I opted for philosophy minor).
I'm taking a computer science 102 course that has us doing Java. Like really basic Java. The 101 course was Alice "programming" and it's a little silly how my school is so slow paced and then starts with Java, a language people consider poopy.
