JohnnyMarko 1 #1 May 1, 2011 Not sure why I capitalized final exams.. Anyone else have finals this week? Being a Liberal Arts major, my classes are borderline jokes/borderline serious. I've got 4 tests this week, 1 is an oral exam with my Environmental Ethics teacher (run wild with that one) and the other 3 will be meh. Call it Junioritus, but my roomies and I are currently all getting smashed in loo of studying. Is that the right spelling of 'loo'? Clouds/rain kept me away from the DZ this morning, fucking 1 hour drive. What is this thread about? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rowet 0 #2 May 1, 2011 I have been in "finals week" for the last 3 weeks. I have 2 more weeks of finals still. This week I have oral radiology and clinical periodontics. can't wait for the next 2 weeks to be over and get a much needed air bath Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TriGirl 277 #5 May 2, 2011 Quote NCall it Junioritus, but my roomies and I are currently all getting smashed in loo of studying. Is that the right spelling of 'loo'? Well, that depends. Are you getting smashed, in the loo, and studying? Or are you getting smashed INSTEAD of studying? If it's the former, then yes, I do believe you spelled it correctly (Brits, help me out here?). If it's the latter, you meant to write "lieu." See the upside, and always wear your parachute! -- Christopher Titus Shut Up & Jump! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NWFlyer 2 #8 May 2, 2011 I haven't been a student since I finished up graduate school in 1997. But it's only been in the last year or two that I stopped having the "It's the last day of the semester and I am an hour late for the exam and I can't find the exam location and I haven't studied or done any of my work for the entire semester anyway" dream. Hopefully reading this thread won't bring it back. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J. O'Rourke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sandi 0 #10 May 2, 2011 Quote Who else is taking Final Exams this week? Technically it's finals week for me, but I don't have any actual classes -- I just do research now. But I still hate finals week because it means my research assistants won't be in the lab since they have finals all week. Next year I'll be teaching again so finals week will once again mean more work for me. Good luck with your exams! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I spend about 9 hours in the lab each week and about 15 in the actual research field. I'm a busy boy with that and 19 credit hours. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SarahC07 0 #19 May 2, 2011 Ah, yes. This week is going to be brutal. Business Statistics HW due on Monday. Finance Exam on Tuesday. Stock Valuation Analysis Case Report due Tuesday. CUMMULATIVE business statistics final on Friday. Marketing Final on May 9th (Monday). I've literally been eating, sleeping and dreaming corporate finance since Thursday or so... corporate finance and Transocean, the company my team and I are analyzing, that is. I'm SO very ready for the summer!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't get paid, and I may bitch about it sometimes, but I really do love it and it's great experience. It's just very time consuming....Well it's Monday, today is my Environmental Ethics oral exam.

corpkid 0 #22 May 2, 2011 Unfortunately I am and just friggen failed one of my classes by screwing up the exam date. Doesn't help the professor is UNFORGIVING. And I was supposed to graduate. I have been waiting to start T-AFF until I graduate which now won't be until the end of summer. Now I'm re-thinking that and might try to balance the two "hobbies" if I can financially afford it. I think the class I have to retake is gonna cost me dearly - like $3000 as it is five credits and retakes are pricey. That would pay for SDU's TAFF, tons of tunnel time, and even some of my own gear. I'm having a hard time staying motivated to wrap this degree up! Not thrilled. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnnyMarko 1 #23 May 2, 2011 That....sucks.... I've done that once but the teacher let me take it with another section of the class luckily. Best of luck mate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
