SUPER crazy professor (PLEASE help, short and urgent!)?

Next time listen to the ratemyprofessor reviews. In your first semester in community college, you will encounter some professors like this, and you will encounter more in university. The lesson here is persistence. Many teachers will do a statistical breakdown of their exams in order to make sure that all of the questions are fair and need not be thrown out, but that's something I didn't encounter until university (although that may be becoming more prevalent in community college, but I don't know). Do the best you can this semester, and study like mad for the final, and if you need to retake it, do so, perhaps over a summer semester so it's quicker AND WITH A DIFFERENT INSTRUCTOR. Believe me, there are times when there is no other professor available for a particular course, and that's when you feel like your back's against the wall for sure, but you need to land on your own two feet. College is not all about books, it's really about seeing if a person is persistent enough to deal with the bulls**t that it takes to get through.
