That is really harsh. Wow I might not want to take Statistics in college now. Sounds pretty hard lol.
I took AP Statistics so I thought now that I have a general knowledge of it, I would give it a try in college again.
i guess not!

now my girlfriend's stats course on the other hand... her hw assignments are so horrible looking. her last one was like 9 pages, including 4 of them with all these tables and stuff done on excel. its like biomedical engineering statistics at the 400-level.

It's 4:26 AM
7 hours till my final begins
now seems like a good time to start studying
|
Okay so I was on the quarter system (3 per year) in college and semester system (2 per year) in highschool and now I am in law school. Thus, in total I have taken an average of 5 finals per quarter/semester so far that means I have taken roughly 105 finals so far in my life.
The last one was on Wednesday at 9 am, and I spent several all nighters studying for it and it still raped me... (4 hour test on contracts), not as bad as engineering tho (4 hours of heat transfer was the worst final ever, I barely got my D to pass...), or as funny as the one psychology final after my 21st birthday where I nearly puked on someone at the beginning because I was still drunk from the night before....My next one is this Thursday and I no nothing about the subject + only attended like 20% of the lectures faawwk...

FUCK THIS SHIT FUCK FUCK FUCK IT FUCK SO MUCH PARTY LIKE A MOTHER FUCKER AFTEWARDS FUCK

Finals do suck. They suck hard. I'm only starting to study harder this term, and it's still pretty sad. I just hope I can finish my last three exams and get out of here >_< (Structure of Matter: Nanoscale-to Bulk, Calculus III, Biochemistry)

What kind of school do you go to that has a quarter system but only has three quarters? What happened to the fourth?

Summer vacation, no place makes you study the full year unless you take extra courses.
Edit: Btw, I love finals!!!

I just finished taking my finals, luckily for me they were for mostly online classes so it was basically open book. Time to celebrate... but oh yeah fuck finals.

It's awesome how students manage to cram huge ciriculums into a few days of late nights and early morning. If we tried our asses off all the time my god OO!

I love finals, good way to recap on everything you've learned, with plenty of motivation to draw out into.
Then again, my college is very easy and I'll be able to handle the financial hurdles next year when I transfer to a real university. 4.0 cc gpa ftw.

That's exactly what I was thinking. I cram like 4 hours for a final and learn everything so if I actually did any work during the course...

The fourth quarter was summer, but most people didn't go to class then (less classes were offered, but you could if you wanted to) and instead people did something fun like get a job or play video games all day.

I just had my first final. When I walked out, took a deep breath, and realized I was done with it, I couldn't help but let out a small chuckle. Not because I thought I did great and aced it. Not because I was relieved it was over. It was one of those laughs where you think, OH MY GOD I'M SO FUCKED I FAILED MISERABLY.
You know, one of those laughs you see a person make before he breaks down crying.
