<p>(Grade of C or better in 10 or 20 required to declare the major, however both courses are required to complete the major.)
Rhetoric 10
Rhetoric 20
II. Major Requirements</p>
<p>(Overall grade point average of C required to graduate, all courses must be taken for a grade)
Required of all majors:</p>
<p>Rhetoric 103A
Rhetoric 103B</p>
<p>Thats partial of the requirements for rhetoric major. I am just wondering, by overall GPA of C, do they mean I can get a D- in Rhetoric 103A &B and still graduate as long as my overall major GPA is over a C? BTW is D considered passing? Or do I need to maintain a C- or a C for 103a and 103b?</p>
<p>uh, it does sound like you can get a D in Rhetoric 103a and 103b as long as you maintain over a 2.0 average for your major classes. You should email the undergrad advisor to make sure. Are you worried about Rhet 103a right now?</p>
<p>ya…i bombed the midterm really hard. misread questions and failed to address prompts…a total disaster. both my major and uc gpa are decent and i can take a d if i must…as long as they allow me to do so. i will try to get a hold of my advisor but talking about this seems rather embarrassing…i mean, how do u fail a cake major like rhetoric…</p>
<p>lol who thought rhetoric was a cake major. I thought rhetoric and comp lit were generally considered the harder humanities. everyone outside the majors avoids them like the plague</p>
<p>oh what?! LOL, what did i get myself into…lol at least i am almost done. 3 classes this sem and 3 more in spring…then graduation! well if i pass rhetoric 103a that is.</p>
<p>not sure if i can find a job with a degree in…rhetoric…but we will see…lol.</p>
<p>uhm yeah, would not consider Rhetoric a cake major. Considering my overall GPA is significantly higher than my Rhetoric major GPA so far…hah.</p>
<p>phew, I was about to take Rhetoric 103a this semester but thought it was going to be hella boring. How is it? Which GSI do you have? (if you don’t mind answering)</p>
<p>my god its so boring…we are now reading st augustine…KILLLL ME. not that i have done the reading…lol. </p>
<p>i got rion roberts. super nice guy but super tough grader. i don’t know tho…imo 103a and b are perhaps the toughest rhetoric courses offered here…survived b during the summer…hopefully i can survive a as well. </p>
<p>from personal experience it seems b or b+ are pretty easy to attain in most rhetoric classes but a or a- are rarely given…often only to the truly exceptional students…</p>
<p>Yeah, I’ve heard 103a and 103b are the toughest/hit or miss classes. I had Rion over the summer for Rhet 10 and phew, I’m so glad I didn’t get him again. He is a tough grader and talked so much during our “discussion” section.</p>
<p>Really? I think all the required classes have relatively tough grading (10, 20, 103 series?), but my upper div concentration profs are much nicer in grading. Yay. It also helps that I’m a lot more interested lol.</p>
<p>i actually thought 10 and 20 were super easy…they even bump your grade up a notch for no reason…lol…so i ended up getting really good grades in both.</p>
<p>i am like really stressed over 103a this sem. i just heard back from my advisor that i need to get at least a c in 103a for graduation. that blows :(</p>
<p>out of all of the prof iv had so far, i find guterriez (LOL i am sure i butchered his name) and mascuch (sp?) to be the easiest.</p>
