Actually Gallente blaster ARs are not entirely equal to shields and armor, 110%shield 90%Armor. SMG is 94% shields 109% armor.

Also to clarify only the tactical or semi auto ARs will near or reach 100 damage. Considering their low rate of fire and damage you should immediately know that's what you're being hit by. The Automatic AR will never reach anywhere near 100 per shot.

Also keep in mind that especially when being hit by a 1000rpm rate of fire SMG it's very difficult to determine just how many bullets perforated your Dropsuit.

good info i'll definetly keep that in mind thanx.. so my shields and armor dont completely suk its what kind of weapon thats giving me the blues..

Do you run alone or in squad? i run a caldari assault 311 shield hp 198 armor hp i run in squads and alone but nothing changes .. by no means do i suk at this game i easily get between 20 and 30 kills a match i'll die a max of 10 or 12 times.. With that amount of HP you could only be killed in 2-3 shots by a select few weapons. Have you considered that when you die very quickly that you were taking damage from multiple sources? Potentially due to placing yourself in a bad situation. I'm guessing you've recently graduated from academy battles? If so you must understand that you've essentially been thrown to the wolves, potentially facing off against player's with millions more SP invested than you. This doesn't mean you'll lose every engagement but you may not have learned to pick your fights in academy battles, now is the time to learn. Don't lose hope though, proper matchmaking is on the way, and remember headshots > SP invested.

Well you're better fitted than militia but it certainly gets better . My Caldari assault build favorite fit is 470 shield 150 Armor, 542 Shield if I use four complex extenders instead of 3 with a complex recharger. Besides your fitting part of the issue may be that your fit is not matching your playstyle. If you want to stay highly mobile moving quickly in and out of cover and therefore forcing enemies to engage you on your terms I recommend staying with the Caldari. If you would rather fight more as a brawler, taking damage and slugging it out holding a position I would recommend looking into Gallente or Ammar Medium. If you are going to stick with Caldari I strongly recommend dropping the plates in favour of shield regulators which reduce the delay between damage taken to to shield repair start. When you reach higher shield HP rechargers are damn near a necessity. You may not be able to even fit Complex extenders on your current suit but as soon as you can, or a have a suit with enough CPU and PG to fit them then skill to them ASAP.

It's cool, my first instinct was to troll too.
