In case you didn't know, for many of the universities on the Quarter system it is Finals Week, that magical time of year when your grade is substantially determined by a single three hour test.

Do you go to university? Are you studying for a final? Did you perhaps just take one?

For example, I go to UCSD and I just took a physics final. If you bitches want to know any-fuckin'-shit about magnetic flux you let me know. I should be studying for my computer science and differential equations finals but those aren't for a few days, so I'm relaxing for now.

So how about you, SE++? How are you learning?

    I took a physics test this afternoon.
    I took this class last year, and did pretty well in it, and I still had no idea what the fuck was going on with that test.
    I literally looked at the last page and shit my pants.

    I go to OU (University of Oklahoma)

    finals were cancelled yesterday due to the ice storms. 60% of my city is without power, and a good three quarters of roads are blocked by fallen branches and debris.

    So do they cancel finals tuesday, even though the city is still powerless and very little has been cleared?


    fuuuuuuuuck no, i don't care if you have no heat or lights and the better part of a tree is in your living room. Plato to Machiavelli final, GO!

    I fucked up when I tried to find the spring coefficient.
    It ended up being monstrous, but I kept using it because I had no idea if it was right.
    So it screwed me up when I went to find the potential energy of the spring, which screwed up finding the velocity, which screwed up finding the height it went to.

    Man there should almost be a seperate thread for "how did you screw up on your final"

    For example, I confused the form of the displacement current term on Maxwell's reformulated version of Ampere's law by including a permeability of spacetime constant (mu naught) which should have been factored out with the current.

    The worst part is I had the right answer before second guessing myself to the wrong one. Horse shit.

    I finished my finals for professional responsibility, evidence, and constitutional law. I've got a criminal procedure final on Thursday (my last one), for which I should be studying right now.

    Crim Proc. and Evidence are sort of complimentary so that doesn't seem so bad. if you want to take Trial ad, you should try remembering this stuff, it's important (I took it this semester and I had to go back and look through all that stuff, despite the fact that I got a B+ in both of those).

    I've got Wills and Trusts and Legislation left. W&T should be rape, and my head hurts way too much to be trying to memorize all that shit. Legislation I'm not so worried about, if I can remember like 10 or so canons, as well as the basic method of statutory interpretation then I should do well

    i just finished my forth exam of today
    goddamn fucking scheduling bullshit

    my 12PM networking exam was a fucking joke
    i studied for 3 fucking hours for it, and i had no fucking clue what was going on
    i know people that studied even longer and didn't know if it was meant to be some sort of cruel joke
    hell, people were walking out halfway through the exam because they fucking gave up

    my 8AM math final was alright, hell, i could have not shown up and still got a C in the course
    2PM software engineering was alright...i just sort of bullshitted my way through it, it was all essay shit
    and i just finished up taking an online sociology exam, got a 70something on it, i'm fine with that

    On my evidence final I forgot that the prior identification hearsay exception only applies when the declarant is available for cross-examination at the time the statement is made, or during trial.

    I botched that section of the essay.

    Edit: the worst part is that I bolted awake in the middle of the night after the exam, and realized my mistake. I ended up getting out of bed, and going through my outline just to confirm that I had, in fact, screwed up.

    Until I hit the back page, there was only one that messed with me.
    You had the power output, but the question said work, and it asked you to find the force applied given the velocity that you're traveling at.
    I was like "fuck you for saying this is the work. This is not in joules."

    Also just fuck collisions in general.
    A train car is detached and is moving with a velocity of 5 m/s. It is coupled with a second train car, which is at rest, find the velocity of the coupled cars.
    Also is this elastic or inelastic and why?

    Shit, I don't know. I can never remember the difference, and I can never remember which formulas are for explosions and which are for inelastic or elastic or shit.
    I ended up doing m1v1 = m2v2, where the left side was the first train car and the right side was the cars coupled together.
    I have no idea if I did it right.

    I've got my two year nearly done in Microsoft Systems at the IT department at a local community college. Working on actually passing the MCSE, but I got my A+ and Net+ certs back in 11th grade. I just need a few academic classes to finish it.

    Was a cool highschool program for 11th & 12th graders to be a full time college student for free and get their highschool credits at the same time.
