[quote=TheZigen]I was way into space as a kid and always had a telescope but only really got inspired to learn how to use it in the last couple of years thanks to taking astronomy lol. The classes I took were intro courses though so it was all lecture and tests which i guess is pretty bad for people who aren't good at test taking. but it was like, read the textbook, know the material. basic memorization like any other lecture class that i can remember[/quote]
Lol okay that doesn't sound bad at all, thanks.
@Ecliptic: you don't know any lazy people who got good grades? I doubt that.
And well I guess I'll just have to take the test again I didn't save results I don't think.

[quote=OnlineMusic]I'm taking it 'cause I owned a telescope and would stargaze and stuff. I need the science creds too and it seemed the most enjoyable; someone told me it's hard though[/quote]

[quote=fradddd]@Ecliptic: lol @ people who think just cause you take AP classes in freakin' high school means you're smarter than everybody else.
lol @ people who think grades accurately measure someone's intelligence
I know quite a few blokes who you can tell are smart people yet they don't do well in school. All that school measures is work habits. That's why I have a 3.1 GPA yet I managed to get an 32 on the ACT without studying, how I managed to get 141 on an IQ test, etc.[/quote]
Proof of IQ test result?
Work habits are very important and will result in success. Laziness doesn't get you anywhere.
