December 6, 200718 yr 7 finals for 6 classes, welcome to college! I submitted my written final for my "Computers in Business" class already and Saturday is the computer practical. Next week I have Psychology, Accounting, Micro, Finite, and Philosophy. At this point I'm more worried about the IU-Kentucky basketball game and the fantasy football playoffs starting this week.
December 6, 200718 yr Well, I just knocked out my Econ final after spending 13 hours in the library. Pretty sure I made an A.

December 7, 200718 yr QUOTE(SnB @ Dec 6, 2007 -> 07:13 PM) what kind of econ? Micro and Macro... Tennessee combines the two into one semester. Half the semester we do microeconomics, and the other half macroeconomics.
December 7, 200718 yr QUOTE(Texsox @ Dec 6, 2007 -> 06:26 PM) Grad school Not.worth.it. (And nothing like undergrad)
December 7, 200718 yr Author QUOTE(Soxy @ Dec 7, 2007 -> 07:14 AM) Not.worth.it. (And nothing like undergrad) All work and no play. We have a smallish program here that looks good to me now. We'll see in a year. I've been invited to take a couple grad level courses next year and will probably take them up on the offer. That way I will get a taste.
December 10, 200718 yr Author *&^%#*^$% It looks like I missed an A in one class by two points (900 pts possible). I had two formatting errors on papers, either one would have been the difference. Damn

Damn you now have the right to do any or all of the following 1. b**** as much as possible (I'd expect way more than this) 2. Freak out on your teacher for being a meanie/inconsiderate asshole (whichever suits the situation better) 3. Get as drunk as possible (and then come posting on here) 4. pretty much anything else

December 12, 200718 yr Three down, two to go. Just found out my PolSci professor worked for the CIA and got in trouble for using his students in CIA studies.
December 12, 200718 yr I get to my Macroeconomics class today and my instructor says: "There was some confusion about what I said in regards to the minimum course grade I wrote on your last test. If you fail, you still will have that minimum course grade. (I had a B for my minimum course grade.) If you have an A, please just return the sheets of paper to the desk and I will recycle them, you will get an A in the class. For everyone else, the University says I have to supply a final to you, and you must take it, but they never said anything about me not grading them, so if you don't mind, please just drop off all of the tests with whatever answers you filled in. I will give you the grade you deserve, whether that be the minimum course grade OR the grade you will move up to." Tomorrow, I go to my Math course, I have two more on Thursday, with Broadcast Announcing and Environmental Life Science coming up before I drive home to Downers Grove at 2:30.
December 12, 200718 yr So, uh, yeah, I got a 100 on my Econ final last week. Wow. Guess that 13 hours of studying really payed off... And 1 more exam to go tomorrow afternoon, and I'm officially done!

Nice on the econ...I'm horrible at econ, didn't do that well on the test, but still got the grade I needed to, so it's not that bad. 3 down, 2 to go.
December 12, 200718 yr Author 4.75 of 5 completed. Part of my Lit final was outside of class. About an hour of class left for this semester, then four weeks of break. I'm also taking two weeks vacation, so they next couple of weeks should be sweet.
