So, how did everyone do on finals?

[gamejunkie]

It may be a little early for some of you guys, but I've been done since Saturday. I just found out this afternoon I made an A in Linear Algebra. It was the only class I was worried about because the guy was such a horrible teacher...

Hopefully 15hrs of A this semester will help me get some more Scholarship monies. I needs me a new monitor.

 

[DanAdamKOF]

I've been out since the 1st. All C's, except for one B. Whatever I did to study in High School (3.5ish GPA, top 10%) isn't enough in college. I'll have to bust my ass next semester.

LOL, that's exactly what I went through. It takes quite a lot more effort, QUITE A LOT more.

During the last three weeks of class I think I went home early once or twice, early being home by 5pm. Every other night was spent studying or working on projects. The weekend before finals I think I spent 40+ hours in autocad completing a project (this is why I'm looking for a larger monitor).

Just remember what you didn't learn this semester you'll have to learn next, if you plan on doing better that is.

 

[kernow]

thank god I finished all this

nothing worse than exams

 

[DanAdamKOF]

Hmm actually come to think of it I just posted my final AVERAGES and not what I actually made on the exams. I can't remember them so I'll post them later.

I'm not in college, but I take quite a few AP classes. My finals are all this week. I've been doing well in all of my classes except AP chemistry (so damn boring I just can't pay attention) so hopefully I will do well. I will post my results this weekend, hopefully good ones.

Since I'm doing all off-campus work, I just needed to hand in papers.

A full semester's worth of units without buying a parking pass. SUH-WEET.

Oh? What were you working on? I put together a dual monitor setup for CAD at home. For some reason, I've been doing some reasearch over the Dome of the Rock and its underground hydraulics.


Anyways, I took all my finals yesterday. I did good enough for government work.

 

[Lets Gekiga In]

I did really well on Finals, but since I fucked up the beginning of the semester I ended up with B's across the board. Oh well!

 

[CrackerMessiah]

10 page paper on Israeli Historiography. Came out to 16 pages. T'was due on the 8th. DONE.

"To the point" paper on the Kurdish language. Came out to 21 pages. Due on the 11th. DONE.

25 page MINIMUM paper on how the media views the water crisis in the Middle East. This is in addition to analyzing around 20 'clip files,' as well as completing 20 hours of non-profit work. This was due on the 13th, but has been pushed back to the 15th. IRRITATING.

Between the debt and... well, the debt, I'm beginning to question the value of a Masters degree.

 

[Loopz]

Had my Geography final just now, I may yet have pulled an 'A' for the semester out of the flames...we'll have to see how generous my prof was. I feel pretty good about it though, we had two hours to complete it, and I was done in 37 minutes.

Still have my Japanese final tomorrow, and then Am. Govt. on Thursday.

Good luck everyone.

 

[Decepticreep]

My guitar final is today and my English 102 final is tomorrow. My Psychology teacher doesnt believe in tests, so ha, i lucked out on that one.

 

[Mark of the Wolves]

Had my Biology 1021(The Lab) last Tuesday. Probably bombed it...

Had my Principles of Marketing Exam yesterday, totally easy.

Today I have my Biology 1020 and Financial Mangement classes.

Tomorrow I got's Survey of Wester Literature.

Should be fine on all except the Finance. I always forget how to do something on the test, and I never study. Maybe I should...probably won't.

 

[evil wasabi]

I wrote 41 pages last week. 22 on how derivatives/options change the fiduciary duties structure, and another on the changes in the Gramm-Leach Bliley Act toward the definition of broker dealers. Tomorrow I got a corporate finance exam, and next week from now, Evidence.

 

[Kiel]

Last night I had my Strategic Management Accounting final and I think I rocked it, and by that I mean I might have gotten a C and I'l be happy if I end up with a C for the class as I was going to drop it.

Tomarrow I have my Corporate finance final and I'm done for the semester.

 

[not sonic]

so far ive only had one final, my matlab class. im hoping for a B in that.

my other classes, calc 2, statics, and physics 2, im praying for C's.

 

[recon_zero]

I failed at 2 exams but didn't affect my overall note.

I'm a profesional next year I won't be missing exams one bit

It's likely that you do not have to do more work or studying...

It's likely that you have to adjust to the different style of exams and whatnot...

That's the case with most freshman....




I never had that problem.... I studdied less and hardly went to class... I managed to pull B's...

 

[fatal fury fan #2]

mine start tomorrow. only have to turn in 2 notebooks and don't take finals in my 3rd period class

 

[El_Duque]

Just finished my Business Environments final, kind of hard but I'll get away with a C. I have Corporate Finance in 3 hours, the professor is the worst professor I have ever had in my college years. He's boring, waste of time, and I didn't learn nothing from his class. I had to take it because it's part of my major, information systems. His final is a make or break for me in the class because I bombed the only two major exams we had this entire semester and I'm hoping to get away with a C if I can rock this final to the core. Later on, I have business stats and I hope to squeeze out a B in that class and on Thursday, I have my Marketing final.

Warned you, didn't we?

No worries, a lot of people (relatively) screw up their first semester.

When you get to college, if it's worth its salt you're gonna be with kids at your level. When you go to certain grad schools (med/law/etc) you end up with people who were at your level in college. It can continue in work too.

It's a cruel cycle, really.


(and it's awesome to be completely through with that bullshit)

Until you get to grad school you are still surrounded by some dumb bastards. Hell, like 1/3 of all college graduates can't find Iraq on a mpa.

I guess that the differences break down like this:

Highschool: Get rewarded for regurgitating bullshit
Undergrad: Get rewarded for intuitivly regurgitating bullshit.
Postgrad: You have to gurgitate your own bullshit.

 

[ray_7]

Will be having my math exam today and next year I'll be working on my Masters degree.

Prolly gonna end up with an A on the exam.

 

[Big Shady]

No finals for me cause I be all grown up

 

[Weevus]

Have had two so far. Ughh. Three more to go. I'm trying to get at least all Bs.

Jesus this week is going by slow.
