Circle of Life

Random 'rantings' of a middle aged medical school professor of physiology that has returned to his 'roots' to find a dream position in a not so dreaming environemnt.

micro xm1

Well, much to my dismay, there were NO A's or B's on the first micro exam! Class average was 65 and 13 students failed (below C). I know it is my fault, as it is always the professor's fault, right? If all students had made A or B, then it would have been because it is such a smart class! Bull hockey! This was a challenging exam, but by no means a difficult college level exam. Now I expected an average like this on my API exam in the morning, yes I have an 8 am Saturday class this trimester and two labs after that! We shall see. Don't tell anyone, but I may surprise the class and give them a 10 point curve! This would bring the class average up to 75, which is more respectable. Not that I worry about respectability, but I don't want to show up and fail all the students my first trimester on the faculty here! Maybe they will do better on exam 2 now that they know what I test like.

Later,
