I'm doing a Masters in Logic and philosophy in Germany as an International Student, and just starting my second semester. Out of four classes, two of them have been graded and I got a 2. The US conversion would be a B. Am I done for applying to Phd's? Don't you need all straight A's/1 to get a Phd position?

German here (wir können auch deutsch reden, wenn du willst).
Well, for your field a 2 is fairly good. Mathematics is still well-respected and hard here in Germany (I study mathematics myself). So if you're competing with other mathematicians you'll have problems finding a doctorate spot, unless you get to know your profs better, eat with them etc. If you're staying in philosophy a 2 should be enough.
And a 2 is not a B, it's more. European universities are harder than American ones by a long shot.
So you should be fine. But get involved!

>logic and philosophy
Then again, you're in Germany, so you'll probably find a job as a Muslim scholar

In my uni (i were doing computer science) they take ANYBODY willing to do phd no matter how bad grades you have because simply everybody wants to finish school asap and make real money so they are kinda understaffed.

Just ask your study department / head of cathedra on how hard is to get into phd. Also you can retake exams until you get 1 or you deplete all tries (we had 3 minimum).

Good luck op.

I was feeling really down but this gives me some hope. Thanks, guys. I also know how the system works and what they expect so I'm hoping I can get higher grades this semester.

Not a muslim but wish I could get a cute muslim scholar girl, or any girl for that matter. Guess I'll finish my studies first!
