Failed Organic Chem 1 and I actually tried, where to go from here

It seemed to have had something to do with the average in my class "being too high". My professor for it decided to adjust the wieght percentage of the final to be 40% of our grade instead of 30% and it seemed more difficult then our previous exams had been. I remember other students feeling that it had been more difficult too and as the class averages were typically around the 80-85% range with the 40% adjustment for the final, that seemed to have been the case. 🙄

Don't you love it when this happens? In one of my lab courses my professor said the class average was too high (only like 12 kids in the class so definitely a large enough sample size to determine the professor was making things too easy and not an above average class). Anyway, he started asking questions on the lab quizzes and on the lab final that were way outside the scope of the class to lower the class average. Basically came down to luck who got the A's.
