what is wrong with my class???
Mood:  irritated
Topic: School
I love my psych teacher... this is the third class of hers I've taken. But it SUCKS. The people in my class don't really seem to care about learning... all they want to talk about is their baby's daddys and everything that goes along with that. They have no interest in the subject unless they have a question to ask the professor about their particular situation or one of their ten kids. I guess that's the only way they can relate to the subject matter, I don't know. It's so frustrating because I feel like I can't participate because when I have a legitimate question or want to answer a question posed by the professor with an intelligent answer, I get talked over. So I just shut up and don't learn as much. It's really, really frustrating. My teacher doesn't like the class, either...

Because of these students in the class, she was talking about having tests EVERY WEEK on the chapter, because they're not smart enough to study and learn the information!! Come on, people - I'm not wasting my money to listen to your stories about your children who have problems because of your bad parenting!! Now I applaud working mothers who are going to school to try to better themselves, but really. There are quite a few people in their situation in that class who can hold intelligent conversations and who do their work that don't hold everyone else back. It's driving me crazy!

Sorry, just needed to vent.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That IS damn frustrating!! I know exactly what you mean, have had classes like that, tho must confess it's not ususlly the majority of the class that are such ninnies, but one or two who used to drive me insane. They would dominate all questions and conversations until I just felt like strangling them and running screaming out of the building. Vent away, it will hopefully prevent a capital crime or two!

And it figures that they probably took the class cause they thought they could get free counseling sessions and get credit for it. My sympathies.
