Oh Dear

I did really, really badly on the Econ exam. Like, really badly. Shoot. Oh dear. Oh well. I will most definitely not be four-pointing this class. Just so everyone knows.
For the most part, the exam was fair. I'm mad at myself, as there were two questions that I knew the correct answer to and simply circled the wrong thing. There were a few questions I didn't like much though.

I've had Profs do a really nasty mid-term just to shake students up & pretty much disregard it if they do well on the rest of the class. How'd everyone else do?

Not as well as first exam, but the average was a bit above me. The biggest issue is that he grades in such a way that it's entirely based on ranking. Students could potentially get an 80% and still only 2.0. I think I should at least three-point, but it's a pain and I don't like it very much, mostly because I feel like the fact that I'm not doing as well in this class is the fault of his teaching rather than the work I'm putting into learning.
