| How'd you do on finals?
I am in the middle of finals week right now (one more to go and then I'm DONE for six weeks!) and so far, I have 3 A's in my classes. I have two more grades to be posted, one for an exam I took today, and one for my last exam tomorrow. I should find out about all my grades no later than 6pm Thursday! *crosses fingers and hopes for all A's or at least 4 A's and a B*
So how are/were yours? None of my tests have been as hard as I thought they would be, either, so yay! |

| I did good on 3 (ring theory, bio, english) and bad on 2 (biochem, organic chem).
And the only reason that I did good in bio is because the final was all problem solving.
I don't do so well in memorization courses any more now that I've burned out. If I have to take any more of them, I'm going to invest in some adderall. | |

| I'm done with finals, and graduated last weekend. Only had one final and got a high B. I was very proud as I never really got around to studying for it since it was on the first day of finals as well! My senior project stuff didn't go as well but all my grades turned out rather good. | |

| Finals are this week. I'm sorta nervous about them because with how my luck has been lately I'll end up getting an 89.4% in all of my classes. I really hope I do well! | |

| I'm getting owned by organic chemistry right now. The final for it is tomorrow. I'm expecting high B/low A in biology, which I took last week and will likely end up with an A- in the class. Spanish went great, got an A on the final and in the class. Got a B+ in my honors class, and should be getting an A in econ. I'm just glad I have an A- going into the final for orgo though, so I have a little bit of buffer room that others don't have. | |

| Sucked coz I ended up with a semester GPA of 3.55 when I was 2-3 points away from a B+ in physics. The B+ would have bumped my GPA up to 3.83!! *sigh* oh well! Next semester as a sophomore engineering student is gonna be hard with Calc 3 and Physics 2 so probably not gonna go a lot higher! lol.. | |

| Finished finals on Saturday...
The only one I really cared for was my CS exam. Got a 150/150 lol, but thats probably the result of a curve or something.
Everything else I took earned me a high C, low B(Calc, Phil, Oceanography, etc.) | |

| Mine were okay....nothing great, nothing horrible.
There was a streaker during one of them. We heard the door open about halfway through and wondered who would even come so late, but he was wearing nothing but a Burger King mask. White as Casper the Friendly Ghost and not exactly in the best shape of his life. Did make things a little more relaxed though. | |

| Epic fail, considering I had 52 and 56 going in with two of those exams, this isn't going to end well.
Just waiting for my marks, I'm hoping A) I passed all my courses B) My average is above 55 (Any lower and I'm kicked out of uni) | |
