Final Exams
The point of this thread is pretty much just so I can rant, but you all can post in it too. XD
So yeah, I had my last final today, in computer organization. It sucked. I studied for hours the night before and even got some extra help from the professor with stuff I didn't understand, and then, just like every test in that *bleep* class, I got to the test and had no idea what to do. Before this test I was 0.6 percentage points away from the grade I need to meet the prerequisites for other classes in my major, and I was hoping this final would bring it up, but that's looking pretty impossible right now. Now I'm probably going to have to retake the class. >.< And I can't even go home yet because I still have to clear out my room and write down some BS about the "cosmic significance" (I kid you not; that's what it says on the syllabus) of a volunteer program I didn't want to do in the first place. [/whine]
So... have you all had any final exams yet or have any coming up?

Re: Final Exams
As do mine. English first, Clock-la. Do me a favour and fail horribly. It'll make my score look better.

Re: Final Exams
Thursday is my Composition II final. A bunch of multiple-choice, then a 2
page essay will be done for the exam.
Saturday is my 0302 Algebra exam. I have positive feeling about that one.

Re: Final Exams
In my school we have something called a CRISP policy. Basically, if you have a 90% average or higher along with teacher approval, then you automatically get a 100% on the final (except AP classes)
I only need to take 1 final this year!

Re: Final Exams
I got an AP Statistics test tomorrow, then four exams on Thursday and Friday.
Yo, Spyro
I'm really happy for you, but Jazz Jackrabbit is one of the best platformers of all time.

My high school was similar to that. The difference is that you simply didn't
have to take the final exam. Both ways are nice to have.

Re: Final Exams
I was in the exact same boat as Stormy, as in same classes and finals and everything, and I can confirm how much it sucked. I am so glad it's summer, but at the same time I'm super worried.

Considering your grammar on the forum, you're probably going to fail anyway, so there's no need to worry about that.

What great words of inspiration Neoty. Instead of telling her to do her best. You went ahead and demoralize her saying she'll just outright fail. You are indeed a very inspiring fellow Neoty. You really are.

Now now, little one, let's not forget that it' a competition we're in. Every pupil our age in the UK is fighting for the best qualifications. A little back-stabbery is perfectly natural.

System? More like systems.
Our school systems are run on the state level, not the federal. Each state makes its own laws and requirements for their schools.

Re: Final Exams
I'm sure everyone needs to take an essay-related course sooner or later in
college. And the "I wrote circa 10 essays" part was just me saying what I did.
My point: Good luck writing essays.

Re: Final Exams
4 A*s in English, Maths, Core science and Additional science.
5 As in English Lit., Statistics, IT, Latin, and History.
2 Bs in Drama and German.
Plus an extra qualification I got an A in. I think that's the highest grade for that qualification, but I have to check somewhere.
So yeah, basically I am a god. I'm going to call a remark on my History as well, because I only missed the A* by a single mark.
