Admiral Odin Posted January 19, 2001 Posted January 19, 2001 My english teacher has decide to give my class 2 pop quiz essays on material we have never seen. To show you how cruel this was to my class, I'll ive you there PSAT scores, the lowest one was a 700-1350. I have the second highest in my class, but those I take english with range from 700-1000. Also you get 200 points for puting your name on the paper. I have a class of complete morons. Then those that are smart in my class, ask me for help because they don't understand something then they tell me I'm wrong. Yet They still come back. ------------------ "Dulce bellum inexpertis."

Gold leader Posted January 19, 2001 Posted January 19, 2001 IMO, for a smart person, your spelling should be better. Talking about Admiral here, of course. [This message has been edited by Gold leader (edited January 19, 2001).]

Guest Thrawn Posted January 20, 2001 Posted January 20, 2001 A pop quiz is a quiz or test that is unknown to the student. All of the sudden you're sitting their and without warning, you are given a test. ------------------ "Noobies Suck" ThRaWn90,RAL_Thrawn,SOB_Thrawn Rogue 6
Guest Vark111 Posted January 20, 2001 Posted January 20, 2001 milky, a pop-quiz is a term for an unannounced exam. In school we're usually told what the exam schedule is (every Firday, or every two weeks or whatever - depends on the class and the teacher of course), and you get in the habit of preparing for those tests at the last minute. But then the dreaded pop quiz comes up and you suddenly have to answer test questions on a day that you weren't expecting to have a test. ------------------ It takes all kinds... The question is, what is 'it'?
Darth Sceltor Posted January 20, 2001 Posted January 20, 2001 We had a pop quiz today over some Shakespeare that we were supposed to read in our FREE TIME. Who'd want to do that??? Well, I didn't. Needless to say, I got some "help" on the quiz.

Who'd want to do that??? On my own, I've read A Midsummer Night's Dream (<FONT COLOR = "green">Puck</FONT> is one of my favourite mythological figures; he's also one of my patron spirits), and John Milton's Paradise Lost and the sequel Paradise Regained (I was going through an angel obsession). ------------------ "Do fish-people eat fish, or would that be like humans eating monkeys?"
