So it's only been about a month into the semester and I feel like i'm doing bad already. Had an exam on probability which should have been an easy 100, had I not forgotten that a^k * b^k == (a*b)^k (there were exponentials that made this less obvious but still..)

I just fucked up my lab practical earlier this morning. Every semester, my intent is to always slam any first wave exams, homework, etc. Somehow, I can never achieve perfect consistency on every exam. Always mess up somewhere. This is when I start to think, "Why can't I be one of those elite asians?" AKA, Ivy league, 90+ on every exam, social life, etc. Why can't I study for 5 hours and absolutely "get it". Why do I bust my ass for this major that doesn't make any money? I'd make a hell of a lot more as a doctor and while putting in a similar amount of effort.

<< PO'd

Cliffs:
- I R idiot.
- I hate being a dumb asian.

lay off the porn and computer games... and get some meds that help you focus. i remember when i needed to put in 4 hours to digest a wealth of material in college, i'd pop my roommates adhd pills and have fantastic study sessions b/c of it.

Im the same way, just messed up my Accounting II exam, but I know it'll be alright in the end =]

I usually pull through with a solid 3.7 GPA with a very minimal amount of studying though. The first wave of tests is usually my worst because I think I put too much thought into it. Don't take it too hard, it sounds like you'll make up for the tests later on. If not, suck up to the professor ;p

You should put as much effort into your rant as you do with your studying.

I think he already does, that's the problem. :p

No, no, no; I study plenty :p I'm just dumb.
