is my professor stupid? i'm taking a communications class intro to public speaking, and we have to do like 5 minute speeches almost everyday. so last week, i did my speech, and i got a 24/25 on my speech. the one point i lost was because he said i was too confident and cocky. wtf? he said i should be more humble. i mean is it my fault i'm not shy and humble like most of the students in the class. most of the students in my class are like shy and awkward when they do their speeches. f**ken bullshit man. i thought public speaking was about having confidence in speaking in front of a large group of people. this 1 point better not cost me an A- to a B+.

a good speaker does not come across like a cocky a-hole. i would've taken off more than a point.

QUOTE(synkro @ Jul 6 2008, 03:20 PM)  a good speaker does not come across like a cocky a-hole. i would've taken off more than a point. some of the people who got a 25/25 were way worser than me. they freaking read off their note cards, and barely had eye contact. also said umm, yeah, like, all the damn time. but because they were shy and shit, professor felt sorry and gave them a 25 for effort >_> QUOTE(jaeminnie @ Jul 6 2008, 03:20 PM) Don't be...overbearing, I suppose. A 24/25 is still good. D: Good isn't good enough. I strive for perfection. |
