As a part-time student, I had four courses this semester and it is driving me nuts.

Looking at taking a summer course to avoid needing to take a fourth class in the fall.

human beings are not always rational choice actors.
the motivation was suffer now and make 3L as cushy as possible. Only 23 credit hours left to graduate when I'm done with exams, and 10 of those are going to be clinical hours. Telling myself that it's going to be worth it.

yeah I regret not making myself suffer enough, 27 credits left for next year, although thankfully 12 will be in the form of a clinic

I guarantee you pass. I'd rather have an outline than have attended class/read.
Step 1: add every possible Scaliaism to a sheet of paper
Step 2: take said piece of paper to exam
Step 3: write every Scaliaism somewhere on your exam
Step 4: B+
I mean that requires that I have knowledge of Scaliaisms so that I can put them on a paper
I think you are vastly underestimating how little I know
Scaliaisms would've gotten you 5 out of infinity points on this exam. Idiosyncratic would be putting it mildly. Also, I double checked the P/F grade requirement because I have one of those tomorrow. It is a C. Enjoy you P or A, Hand.

While not optimal, that's certainly not awful.

lol you only checked that now??
Yes. I only double checked it now. I have the memory of a stoned goldfish. Combine that with an active imagination, and you have a recipe for disaster. Wait, what was the question?

Just guessed on all the multiple choice and made up 'reasonableness' conflict rules on my ethics exam. Have a paper due at noon tomorrow then I'm done. 1 month until I start work, that will be awesome.

Being done is great. I love waking up knowing I don't have to start cramming for some test. Spent today bingeing a bunch of shows I missed out on during finals.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
