:c Teachers do make all the difference. However, colleges are set up funky where if you get a shitty one you can either drop the class and potentially lose money/scholarships, or you can deal with it and get a shitty grade. Either way, you'd probably wind up retaking it. The add/drop period is dumb, because they give you one week to decide if you want to stay...and that's only enough time to go over the syllabus. You just don't have enough time to tell if the teacher is effective or crazy. College is just a gamble these days, since anyone can teach. Sometimes it makes me lethargic and want to quit, but somehow I just keep going and hope for those good teachers so I can do well. ._.; Ratemyprofessor.com has been helpful to me though...and would be far more helpful if people knew how to give good feedback (lol there it is again) With many of the professors, half of them will claim that they experienced a wonderful time and got an easy A. The others will claim they went through every layer of hell and don't want to even thing about it due to the trauma. makes me wonder, and leads me to gamble again for nice professors. lol sorry for rambling.
