I’m Currently So Overwhelmed By All The Unread Books I Own… And The Books I Don’t Own But Need

some calculus notes!! ive been v v confused with some of the topic at hand, but working hard at trying to improve that! any progress is still progress

one of my only real issues with studyblr is that it just ?? makes me want to study everything ?? like i’ll see a law student and be like,, damn I wanna learn law now !! or i’ll see a medicine student and decide I want to learn medicine or see a physics student and decide I want to be a physicist and I just ??? want to learn everything ever ??

it’s a holiday and i am joyous.

To younger uni students

So we all probably saw those "how to get a 4.0 GPA " posts and I want to add something, especially for ppl who don't go to a college in the USA:

I don't have a GPA since I'm from Germany but if we want to use this grading system : my GPA is 2.3.

And I'm quite proud since it's a good average at my uni for a engineering major. We have more than 1k engineering students and only 10% are able to reach a 3.0 GPA or better. Around 30% up to 50% fail an exam because our grades are made like this. A 'good' amount has to fail and the rest of the marks a scaled to a Gaussian Distribution !

Sometimes you only need 20% to pass, sometimes 51%. Sometimee you need 70% for an A ( or in Germany 1.0 ) and sometimes it's 95% depending on how good your fellow students did in the exam.

Be happy for your studyblr friends that worked hard for their 4.0 GPA but don't compare yourself and feel bad about it! We can't all have that 1.0 / A+ since the university makes sure only a small amount get's such a high grade.
