~Average Aerospace Physics test: 16.67

CaptainChris87 · April 24th, 2006, 17:53

so we took our third out of a total of 4 physics test and the average of a class of 150 or so is 16.67 percent, out of 100, no joke no exageration. I got a 20! the Current scale before this test was, who knows whats it going to be after this test.

35=C
55=B
70=A

Seriously?????? That's funny! Do you guys have Wagner or no?

CaptainChris87 · April 24th, 2006, 17:55

No, hes a new guy, Edsel Ammons. Funny guy personailty wise.

JaceTheAce · April 24th, 2006, 18:01

You'll find teachers like that. I got an 82% on my business law test that I studied my ass off for - the class average was 57%. How the heck does this happen??? All his tests are like this. My first two tests I got C's on (can't remember the scores)...but on those first two tests the class average was in the 60's. Just rediculous I tell yah!

Chris I bet he'll curve it somehow...don't worry. If not, you may want to discuss this with the department chair. The good thing is you probably studied a lot for it and put a full effort... so don't let the grade put you down.

UAL747400 · April 24th, 2006, 23:56

Wow, I dont think the average was ever below 60% when I had physics with Wagner. Although, my class probably wasn't motivated to do much better since right on the first day he told us getting 50's on all the tests will get you a C.

Joekster · April 25th, 2006, 00:28

yeah I'm in that class, It's such a joke. I got a lucky 50 on this test, but I rarely go to class. You can learn better out of the book

I took that class when Wagner started and aced aerospace physics. Wagner is awesome, fun professor.

I loved it how the whole physics department would rip on aviation students, then again the whole university does.

edubs · April 25th, 2006, 16:38

i took that class my first semister here...i got less than 40% on each test and i passed the class with a C. I had wagner...definetly a fun class though.

TXaviator · April 25th, 2006, 21:33

Wagner was a freakin cool guy.

CRJDriver · April 25th, 2006, 21:38

You guys are kidding, right? Wagner was a horrible teacher. Yes, he knew his stuff, but he couldn't teach...

TXaviator · April 25th, 2006, 21:41

come on now, that class was easier than high school Physics I

.....yall DID that physics in highschool....right?????

(maybe curriculums are different than where I'm from.....i hope????)

((seriously, wagners class was WAY way easy))

that is a high score compared to some that i saw people bring down when dewar was the prof. one kid got a zero but had not left any questions blank.

Finally, someone old enough to have taken physics under Graehm Dewar! You definitely earned your grade in that class with him teaching it.

Bunch of weenies! Physics is easy!!!! Now BVED 320 with the devil incarnate, Barb Graham, that was a ball buster! D for DONE!

I wasn't one of those wussie Commercial Aviation majors, so I was exempt from taking BVED 320. I did make up for it with other classes, like John Vitton's MGMT 475!

When i was looking for my test in the folder, I saw about one in four were a zero, and there was alot of work on them too.

you should see the number of 0's for this test 1?! heh you dont know until youve attended classes with Edsel! once they caught him sleeping in his office when people wondered why he wasent there 15 minutes past the hour. Also a group of guys saw him read a book at 4am over at truckstop, hes a nice guy pritty smart, but teaching ability= negative.

took that class, too. luckily it was a summer and not a full semester. because of the combined work ethic and intellectual capabilities of the students in the class, she was kind and offered us some extra credit. barb said she give us x number of points for an hour of work. just about every person who later passed the class (and some who didn't) showed up and filled sandbags or some other bull##### for about 4 hours. that class was really weird.

Really? Take Dewar, he knew his stuff but mumbled and stutered.

Either way Physics was EZ, however I do agree that Barb Graham is the devil.. Congratulations and way to go Dugie8 for mentioning that, good luck on your future ambitions
