To the person that hit my car in the C lot I hate you. I just bought my car last month. I don’t even have plates yet. You’re a piece of shit. At least leave an “I’m sorry. “

It's annoying because the math itself isn't even that difficult, but the way it's being taught makes zero sense to me. So far it's really basic things like Egyptian fractions (which is just a weird sort of fraction decomposition) and distributive property, but I only got a C on the first quiz when normally I do pretty well on those. Then I realized that the exam covered things that we hadn't even studied for yet (in class or on homework) when we got those same problems on the homework the week AFTER we took the quiz. Also the teacher I have tends to pitch her voice up five octaves at the end of every sentence and it's not the best to listen to, and there's no late work or makeup work accepted.

Does anyone have any tips for surviving this class or what I should study for before each exam? Should I jump ahead a few lessons to make sure I get everything? Again, I studied all the homework she indicated we should go over prior to the quiz, but the quiz itself included things we didn't cover yet.

I hate studying with people in the same room as me even if they're dead silent, where is the emptiest/quietest study room or any room with tables that I could study in and not expect any people to walk in nor expect to hear others in some hallway or other room

What media do you consume where forensics is present? Could be podcasts, social media, shows, books, preferably with a given name. Shows like Dexter count.

From that media do you think is true in forensics?

From that media do you think is false in forensics? Why do you think it was presented that way?

Thank you!! My project is on the CSI effect (don’t look that up until answers are given 😭) and the general perception of forensic science. The answers will be added up and used as a source. I may get back to people who answered to let them know if they got what’s right and wrong from the media was correct or not!
