ugh. what am i supposed to do in Philosophy to get an A on one of these tests? i don’t mind getting a subpar grade if i write a bad essay, but it’s fuggin frustrating to not know how to get a good grade. it’s like a goddamn enigma. if you’re in a bio class, for example, at least it’s clear what you have to know.
