So I used the Mathematical Autobiography from Math Equals Love on Friday. Thought I’d share some of my students answers. I was surprised to learn that only a few students are shooting for an A or B in my class. The rest wrote that they want D’s or C’s, with D’s being the overwhelming majority. Hopefully the first round of grades will go in, and they’ll feel better and see that A’s are definitely attainable if they stick with it!
