My students are taking the CA HS Exit Exam

I just opened the math portion and flipped through it...there is NO way I would pass this. NO WAY.

I've figured out that I am most likely dyslexic, and numbers honestly make my brain hurt. I knew how to do about 30% of the problems, but even though I knew how to do them, that's no guarantee I would get the right answer.

I really wish I could take it and get it scored, just so I could see if my math skillz would get me out of hs or not.

Re: My students are taking the CA HS Exit Exam

  • I feel ya. Math was always my worst subject. I struggled with it in HS and even more  so in college.

    Tongue Tied 

    GL kids! 

  • Ugh. I am not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to math. Taking an online math class in college ranks up there as one of my stupidest decisions.
  • I am a math dunce. I have to take a math class to graduate and I am putting off until the last possible moment because I suck.

    GL kids!

    I did that and regretted it later because I failed it twice. Then it took me a year longer to graduate. I know you're a fantastic student but don't wait too long just in case.

  • I was in honors math classes in high school, but now I can't even remember how to add and subtract fractions...yes 3rd grade math.  Ugh!  DH is taking alegbra and trig online with 95% in each and it drives me nuts when he rubs it in.
  • High school algebra & advanced algebra were two of my biggest challenges academically. I doubt I can still do any of it.

    You're totally right! It's being offered for the summer session, I should just take it now and get it over with!

  • I loved math in high school and usually got As but I doubt I could do most of it now.  My DH teaches 4th grade and I look at some of his homework sometimes and I don't remember how to do some of it.  Luckily I will never have a job that requires it. 
  • As long as I have a calculator I love doing math.  Finite was my favorite course in college. 

    English on the other hand...I hate it.

    This was my experience as well. It held up my transfer for like 3 semesters...dont wait too long!

  • I was surprisingly good at math when I was young . . . but now, I can't even add two numbers together :X
