    I am not looking forward to my calc exam this year.

    Things I understand: multi variable integration
    Things I do not understand: multi variable differentiation

    50% go go go

    e: Also my lecturer likes to set integrands/differentials that require a little trick to solve or whole goddamn pages if you don't see it.

    There's no C because it is definitely going to suck.

    Sparknotes is like the worst site ever.

    It is failing me right now and I have a test tomorrow that I would like a review supplement for.

    Why.

    Sparknotes . . . depends. Sometimes it is a Godsend other times it really doesn't help.

    that was probably in my top 5 douchiest posts ever

    but uh heh I looked at my internal mark for my differential equations class and figured out that I got about 65 on the exam, 71 overall and that was one that I felt fairly good about

    the moral of this story is even when the maths you're doing is boring mechanical shit that is easy to understand, practice it a lot and don't leave your homework to midnight on the day before it's due

    Really? Gradients and divergences and curls and all that? I found all that like a billion times easier all the yucky integration stuff and green's theorem and all that

    One time I used Sparknotes the night before a test without even touching the book once, and got 100%
    it was the scarlet letter though so maybe that makes a difference somehow maybe?

    I am so completely unmotivated to work right now

    I have 3 exams wednesday (WTF YOU STUPID PROFS) and one thursday

    luckily 2 of those wednesday exams I barely need to study for. I'm talking like, >30 mins per. The other 2... a few hours and I'll be good.

    Of course telling myself this only makes it harder to study

    two students want to discuss their grades with me

    to them i say, should have done so at any point during the last semester

    actually i'm not sure what to do about it, i've never had this happen

    i guess they want me to change their grades?
