And if you don't do good enough, you're not saved. Right?

That's about what I was told. Oops, how do I know, I slept through those classes.

Did you keep your old textbook?

That's a distinct possibility, or you were paying attention to that cutie in seat 5......whatever it was, you misinterpreted the Catholic message if you EVER heard it described as works based. It was probably pointed out to you that you could reject salvation by continuing to perform evil works, but NEVER could gain salvation solely through works of any nature. Either you were Catholic for a very short time, had a rare instructor who was in error, or misinterpreted what the church teaches.
