Lowest grade in college not counting zeros

[prplchknz]

So what's the lowest you've ever gotten while in undergrad? I got a 3% in my fundementals class,I actually failed all my classes that semester, but that was a shitty semester. Reasons I'd rather not go into, I don't think I'll ever get another 3 again in my life.


though I have to say, I'm kinda proud I didn't think it was possible to get that low in a course besides a zero. I feel like I've accomplished something, and never needs to be accomplished again.

I got a 23% on an organic chemistry test once. I was so proud of myself and told everybody! :rofl1:

Fail with flair!!

[Usehername]

In a 3rd year chem lab report I got 2.5/10. I think the class average was a 3/10, though.

[Randomnity]

Lowest I've gotten in a course is a C (still bitter). Don't remember for tests/projects - probably around 60% since I don't remember ever failing one. Actually I think to have gotten a C in that course, I may have needed to fail the final exam. Don't know.

I don't know, I've never completely not studied for anything in undergrad, so the lowest I tend to do is just-barely-passing (ie, if I just-barely studied).

Here exams are scored on a 0 (min) to 30 (max) basis. 18 means that you have passed.

The lowest I've scored was 2. I hadn't attended the classed and I hadn't studied the topic, nor I did any exercise before.

[Lateralus]

If you don't count the classes where I didn't attend and didn't drop (because I was stupid)...

I've never gotten less than a 60%. I almost always score well on tests, even if I don't go to class and don't do the homework. I've been accused of cheating a couple times in my life because of this. I guess not that many people can perform calculus derivations on the fly, during an exam. /shrug

I achieved a 7 in an A Level Maths test. It was a record of sorts.

[whatever]

I got a 0 out of 10 on a true/false math test once (calculus) my freshman year- a friend pointed out that statistically speaking, a trained monkey could have done better than I did on that test.

In my defense on that though, I've never gotten over a 40% on a true false test- I just flat out suck at taking them :blush:

I had a D for my Computer Hardware class, something I'm particularly skilled at, ironically enough. The girl in charge of compiling our group project (a user's manual explaining how to assemble a PC) never turned our project in. I think the professor was actually lenient on me since that was 50% of the grade.

[Little Linguist]

I don't honestly remember - but that was that time that I sorta forgot to take my final exam that was worth like 50% of the grade. Oops.

Thankfully, I was allowed to take the course over again and replace the former grade with the latter. Heh.

[Angry Ayrab]

I remember it like yesterday. It was a (C) in a science class that I didn't know I had to attend for a grade because I also missed the first day and mainly showed up to turn in HW and do tests. I really have a hard time attending classes, I much rather last minute study from a text book.

Aren't there T/F on the SATs that you kicked ass on? How did you still do so well there?!

Sounds familiar. I technically "took" college algebra four times. The first three times, I had this problem with showing up. :P The last time I took it, I worked with an engineering major who spent lunch breaks with me helping me understand it.

I hate math. It's the only class that I have to work really hard in to only do okay. Other classes, I do well without the work.

I had a math teacher give a test where well over half his class got below 50% and he commented that if you ansered all true or all false, people would have had a better grade. Granted it was full of trick questions.

I think its in your head. As Usehername pointed out, you did rather well on the SATs.


I got a 23/80 on a midterm once. But that test was really pressed for time, and the average was 33/80. There were actually several people who scored in the low teens and even one under 10.

I ended up with a B in the class since there were three projects and a final exam in that class to even things out.

[Eileen]

The lowest grade I got in a college course was a B-. Grrr!

I am not sure what the lowest grade on anything I got was--maybe a 65 or 70 on a test.

[rhinosaur]

Lowest grade I've ever gotten for a course was a C-. I had straight A's all through the semester, and then apparently the instructor gave me an F on the final exam. :( In retrospect, I should have asked him about it, because it seemed odd.

[disTant_eCHo]

It's not college, but in high school English I once had a 1.

[Recoleta]

Lowest grade in a course was a "C"...darn 7:25 a.m. calculus class. I think my lowest quiz/test score was a 14% also in the same calc. class.

[ajblaise]

I missed a final in fucking CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY the easiest class ever and got a D.

[Aimahn]

In highschool I got plenty of terrible overall grades, id still pull decent test scores though even in the classes I miserably failed. Latin though was a class that I got like a 50% maybe something ridiculous.

I consinstely got my lowest scores in my easiest classes. I have trouble putting the effort.

[htb]

Nothing below a B, as I recall.
