Congrats and thanks. Yeah, having been to the lectures helps, unfortunately I didn't go once all year. 8am on Thursday. T_T
Psych courses tend to have a ridiculous amount of material. I've been helping my girlfriend study for her psych course all quarter, and shiiiit there's a lot of reading I need to do even to edit her essays. Her exam is on friday, and yeah I bet she is going to be freaking out 2x more than you.
I am doing the exact same thing right now. I have only 400 pages of material to read and have got drugs, caffeine and food nearby to keep me going. What makes it worse for me... is that I thought my final was wednesday evening only to find out that it's tuesday evening. I just lost 24 hours of cramming.
And to make matters worse... I've been wanting to blog about this one idea for a while and I feel really motivated to write that right now and not study.
exam done, went fine i think (thought i was going to fail for sure)
thank you guys for all the good wishes and good luck to everyone who still has their tests! just remember the worse you feel from not sleeping and only studying, the better you're going to feel after the exam's over. :D
edit: I also threw up like 3 minutes before I had to leave lol, I thought I was going to pass out during the exam or something.

Sounds downright fun. I would have read all that shit during the term purely out of interest. But I'm in engineering, what do I know about difficulty?
It would've been fun, except our lecturer is a psychoanalyst with the biggest bias for psychoanalysis I've ever seen. He basically told us during the first lecture that everything else doesn't interest him at all and if we want to learn anything about it, we should read the book. And psychoanalysis the way he's teaching it is the biggest voodoo shit ever. :p

Is he not aware that psychoanalysis, although mildly applicable as food for thought, is largely obsolete and highly reactive in nature, which makes it a poor choice for clinical applications?
Freud is the reason why psychology is still in the Faculty of Arts.
You doing well on your final gives me hope! I've got 7 hours left before mine. I'm not nearly prepared enough. Got lots of cellular biology to learn and not a lot of time to do it.
