➸ Coursera (and education in general)

So basically, my guess so far is…

In one of my classes, which was the one that was the most time-consuming, I got an A+. Did really really well. That’s pretty much guaranteed given my grades so far.

In my other class, I’ll be lucky to pass at all.

Because even though I got Bs and As on most…

since your tests were late due to recovering from surgery, it’s ridiculous that you’re being penalised. Do they know that you had surgery? They since make allowances for that.

Well, one or two were late because of surgery. The other one or two were late because of having to do a really intense project for another class, which I know doesn’t count for anything.  And I’m not going to tell them – they have tens of thousands of students to deal with, I don’t think they make allowances for medical problems.  Plus this isn’t for real credit, it’s just for our own satisfaction that we did it well.
