I am talking any history class, anytime, any place. The only thing is that it has to be graded on the 0/F to 100/A scale.
crikey, kid, how old do you think the average A2Ker is?
So, did you just get back a great grade?
Those who flunk history are doomed to repeat it.
"A"s and "A+"s were not uncommon in college and grad school in most courses. One of my BAs was in History, and graduate work in Oriental Philosophy and Religion had a lot of history. There were a couple of history courses in my MPA, and a couple more in law school.

I got back a 130 on my exam.
and the average A2ker can't be a day over 28
For most of us, history classes are ancient history. Good going on your history exam!
history, would that be my biography?

Yeah, I wish.
I don't even remember what my highest grade was.
Just goes to show that most A2Kers are way above average....
When I was in school, it was so long ago there wasn't a "History" yet. Back then the distant past meant "last Tuesday". "Zero" hadn't been invented yet, so even if you failed a test, you still got a D-minus.
What sort of history, modern, or dinosaurs?
eyes jest a chid, mysef. but I done good in histery. ante diluvian history, that is. Ask me anything you want about the ark.
And now for a straight answer:
straight A's
Letty, we're all 28, if I recall, yes?
Well, of course, Cav.
Tell me who built the ark
I don't knowa
Who built the ark
I don't knowa built the ark.
My history grades were average, to be honest. Between my interests in sciences, especially biology, writing, music and other artistic things, I really had no time for facts, figures, people and places, hence the near mirror image in my math grades. Hmm....times do change. When shopping for a catering, I can now calculate the bill in my head within a dollar. As for history, I can barely remember what day it is. Without my calender and day planner, I would be lost.
That reminds me of a pretty funny joke:
Me and my grandpa got into an arguement about Alzheimers(sp?) disease, and I told him to forget about it.
i before e except after c, and in alzheimer's. I almost forgot that.
The best part of having a relative with Alzheimer's is Christmas and birthdays. Just steal something from their house, wrap it up, and hey, free gifts.
