Classes and Grades

The term is over and I got an A- in Mycology and an A in Statistics. Next term I will be taking the follow on Stats class which I expect to struggle in as this term we had a professor who was lenient with grades but who I didn't fully understand so I fear I will find it hard to move onto next terms syllabus. Anyway, I will also be taking a class in environmental physiology of plants which sounds interesting. It is nice to have two A's in the first term, it gives me a kind of buffer so that when I am in the midst of research I can focus on that more than classes and if I get the odd C I can still average a B grade, which is what I need to maintain my research assistantship (which is what pays me). This week I am frantically trying to make progress with my 2 research projects so that I can get to a point where I will be ready to dive into more practical stuff at the start of the winter term and start collecting data. I also want to find a bunch of papers to take home to read over the break.
