Had CivPro exam this morning. That was an awful experience, but it's over.

Just one more exam left on Thursday (reg state).

Had a four-hour final, but the professor said "you can do it in three, its just extra time to go over your answers"...............have fun grading like 75 exams with 30 pages of stream of conscious ramblings!

lol to 3000 something words being a lot. Here I am looking at every civ pro sample answer clocking in around 10,000 for a four hour test... Failing one class is cool right?

seriously, I would stop looking at any sort of 4 hour test sample answer that is anywhere near that long

and yeah I only go back over questions that I know I need to go back to and add stuff

Three down, one left on Thursday. I thought I'd be able to power through finals without burning out, but my brain is seriously fried. Anyone else in the same boat?

Columbia ends on the 22nd as well. I can't really complain too much, having a week in between exams is pretty great for keeping stress down, and we still get a full break on the back end (no winter session, go back on the 19th).

Exams round two today. Time to show Contracts who is boss.

SAME. Plus I keep beating myself up over things I missed in last exams, or things I could have done better. Sigh.

Lessons for next semester!

Not many seemingly feel great going into Ks. I've got it in the morning and the amount of sheer trepidation surrounding it is palpable. Maybe that's somewhat comforting because, if we all suck, the curve will work for you as opposed to against you.

I've read some previous exam model answers and been like, lol wut

This is how I feel about my Reg State final tomorrow morning.

Also, I think I might have food poisoning, which is just fucking awesome.
