I have barely left my apartment all week. This bar exam is killing me smalls.

Oh yeah, this time of year is no fun for anyone. My life is completely consumed by work. Death to the infidels.

I once wrote 2 4th-year exams on 90 minutes of sleep. I somehow managed an A- and B+ in those courses.

I also missed out on Gelinas' OT winner against the Canucks because I had an 8:00 AM exam the next day and needed to sleep. Found out about it the next day, and a few days later one of my professors was carrying around the front page of the Herald and showing it to every before an exam.

Finals exams and homework are the two principal reasons why I figure it's best to stay away from grad school. I like my evenings, that you very much.

I have one on Wednesday, Thursday, Wednesday. But this upcoming Monday I have a thesis due... so this is not a good weekend.

Kipper is King · 04-17-2009, 11:00 AM

Good news- I am done on the 21st.

Bad news- Between now and then I have 3 exams and 3 papers!

April is the cruelest month!

I love reading the threads like this, graduated chem eng in '06 and I do not miss those exams at all, good god it sucked!

V · 04-17-2009, 11:32 AM

Yeah, this thread is enjoyable. I never did a single thing through the whole year until exam week, so those weeks were pure hell, nothing but all nighters. Made it through, now I'm living the dream. It's fun to remember just how ugly exam week was.

Kipper is King · 04-19-2009, 06:14 PM

Two exams and a paper due tomorrow! Exam numero uno starts at 8AM! This will be brutal.

Torture · 04-19-2009, 06:18 PM

Only Final I have is on Monday....but it's Finance 317 so I might die.

On a positive note though...I only need 40% (20 questions right!) to get my C- in Finance.

Then I have a paper due Wednesday.

Berger_4_ · 04-19-2009, 06:32 PM

I have the good fortune of being here for two more weeks in order to write exams for three days. Two on Thursday (LWSO 203 at 8 am and SOCI 201 at 7 pm...how gay is that?), Psych 203 on Saturday (I only need 50% for that one), and then I have 3.5 days off until I write my last one (LWSO 201)

ricosuave · 04-19-2009, 06:48 PM

3 exams and a TQ in 1st year electrical apprentice (SAIT) for me this week...

Here's hoping the Flames can make the series last so at least I can really 'watch' a game

Finance 317 is probably not as hard as the midterm except for the capital budgeting question. Make sure you know that section front and back, do all the questions in the yellow text book, and have a method to answer the question. I took that final last semester and the capital budgeting question combined the three hard questions from the text into one super crazy hard question.

My finals schedule is great this semester with exams on the 21 (LWSO 335), 22(OPMA 317) and the last one on the 24th(ACCT 323). I deserved a easy schedule this semester after the hell that was four exams in the first two days of exam week last semester.

Thanks for the heads up.

Oh the 7 steps of capital budgeting ecstasy.

Flamesguy_SJ · 04-19-2009, 11:41 PM

My last final is tomorrow at 7pm, but then I have a take-home to write before the 25th and a primary research project with an 8-12 page discussion paper due before the 29th. And then I get to start all over again with intersession on May 4th. God I hate school

flamingchina · 04-19-2009, 11:56 PM

Got one hard one tomorrow (PMAT 319, shoulda picked a different option)
Then my other three are easy sailing and I am done done done
(assuming I pass this exam)

Coach · 04-20-2009, 09:29 AM

Business and Environment. If i ever mention wanting to become an accountant, someone kill me

enthused · 04-20-2009, 09:33 AM

Music History today and Bio tomorrow. I friggin HATE electives. I swear I always do worse in 200 or 300 level electives than I do in 500 level courses in my actual program.

Kipper is King · 04-20-2009, 10:34 AM

I aced my first exam

and will now scramble to finish off my paper, eat lunch, then study for my second exam today, which will suck
