[246-255] So, occasionally, because you also have the option to raise your hand like a normal classroom, except, no one wants to volunteer. Because, if you volunteer, you’re basically forcing yourself to have this in-depth debate with him of which, he’s probably going to end up inevitably asking you a question that you won’t understand. So, therefore, it discourages a little bit. If I know 100% that I know the answer, someone else is struggling, maybe I’ll help them. But I also know that if I do that, he’s going to hit me with another question right after, and I don’t know what that question is going to be. So, but, yeah. It really doesn’t encourage I guess, group discussion to be honest. I mean, he obviously does get a lot of us individually because we have talked to him because he calls on us. But, yeah.<\/p>\n

I mean, for me personally at least, it definitely was a low, but it also was more so a low for that type of day, I guess. Because I also don’t to try and dwell on things because, obviously it’s not beneficial. Especially one that I […] Okay. So, I took the exam, I don’t know what I actually got. Could I get a 100, sure there’s still a shot. Did I? No. But […] So, my point is, I definitely did get upset about it and I wasn’t happy. But I’m, be able to get over that type of stuff relatively quickly. And just move on. And, like I said, especially when I got the grade back, but even prior to that, I was like, “Okay, well … Like I said, he bases his grading more so on effort so I got to make sure that I put up this effort. I got to make sure I email him a bunch of times and stuff. So, he actually sees that I’m putting forth the effort because I am putting forth ever. I’m watching lectures and taking all these notes, but he’s not watching me, watch his lectures or looking at my notes that I’m taking, he’s just basically going off, if you email him, which he keeps stressing, he wants people to email him.
