One more strike in math

I'm in a math class right now with a very strict teacher. We have four chances to get by without being entirely prepared for class, and then she drops us... Well, I missed the signin sheet one day, and twice couldn't find part of my HW and now I've only got one strike left to go... I can't apply for a refund anymore, so if I get dropped from the class, I'm in trouble... Besides that, I can't be taking this class over and over, because I really need to work on getting money, and this class takes up all the time I'd otherwise use for finding/ working at a job. I certainly can't get a job just until summer, so if I get dropped, that's one more semester I can't work, and one more half a year I can't even consider getting any good student loans.
Please pray that I can hold out on that hanging thread for the rest of the semester. Also, pray that this class won't be so stressful...

I will pray that you will persevere, and I am sure you will.

Bob, you certainly have my prayer. I get stressed out over school work and classes all the time. I'm also very disorganised and forget stuff...

I'll be sure to keep you in my prayers! But like Shinja said, if you do get dropped, you should maybe go talk to your teacher or the dean about the situation.

Update: I'm not getting dropped... I guess I didn't have 3 strikes... I'm taking my first big exam tomorrow, and I've timed it out so I may just barely get all the problems done (speed word problem-ing clocked at 4 minutes a question, all steps included)
I need to have an average of 3 minutes and 7 seconds a problem to finish them all. Not all of the problems are word problems, though. I'm trusting God that I'm going to pass. I've studied and done my homework and worked in the groups, not to mention prayed consistantly about it for a while.
So, anyone who catches this before 10:50 AM PST (which is 1:50 PM EST, 12:50 CST, and 11:50 Mountain) please pray for me (hey, at least it's not a speling test. or grammer test.)
(the test starts at 10, it will be over at 10:50)
goodnight

Get rest, relax, and stay confident during the test.
I will pray for you.

Update: Test is done. I AT LEAST got all the problems done and I was able to check 2 or 3 of them. I'm pretty sure I wrote out all the steps and didn't rush anything, but I won't find out until at least tuesday (t >= tuesday 10am, hehehe)
Until then, I've got Japanese to worry about tonight, and then my homework over the weekend, friday, and monday. Japanese shouldn't be much of a problem as long as I don't fall asleep studying or in class.
P.S. (put link here)
