frustrating

Today, I had my Theo orals and I got the results of my Math midterms.  We had a quiz in Accounting class which I know I flunked because my brain was not in its right state of mind due to studying Theo. 

When I first saw my score in Math midterms, it was 155/200.  I looked it over, and later, I had my teacher re-check it.  Tada!  My score is now 177/200.  He did not give me full credits on one number because I did not prove an inequality (it was about convergence/divergence).  I lost 7 points because of that number.  And sad thing is, I know that I did that number right (except I just didn't prove the inequality because I was in a hurry).  And I had some careless mistakes.  Grr.  Now I know that I will have to take the math finals.  I'm worried that my teacher might make the same mistakes he did in checking the midterms (by not being careful when checking).  And I won't be there to correct the mistakes.  Hassle.    And he did not recheck my long test 1!  I had to remind him to recheck it.  I'm worried that my grade in Math will be affected because of carelessness not only on the part of the student, but on the teacher as well. 

Theo orals went okay for me.  I can't say it went great.  There were some dead airs during my part.  But my teacher did not say anything.  Is that supposed to be good?  Because she mentioned that she'll talk when we are lost or we said something wrong.  I hope I have a fair grade in the orals.  I really do.

I think I'm going to have my lowest QPI this semester.  I just hope and pray it will be greater than 2.50 (my scholarship's grade requirement).
