College students: When are you out for summer?

[Q]

Me: May 2nd

I'm so dreading my Econ final on Monday. Professor just told us it's going to be really hard.

When do you all get out?

 

[angry hampster]

Done with class on May 9, but I've got one final some time the following week. The final won't be bad, but I've got a couple crazy photo projects due in the next two weeks. It'll all be worth it though -- I'm going to Australia in June for the semester

 

[tfinch2]

Finals are finished on May 1st. I graduate the 3rd.

My last day as an intern is May 2nd. I start full-time on May 27th.

 

[Mr Pickles]

Oh the days of when I had a summer...

 

[Bibble]

My last class is May 1 and my last final is May 9. The next two weeks are going to suck.

Congrats on your job tfinch2.

 

[Demo24]

I'm done with classes. Got one final on Thursday and another Friday, and another two the following monday Plus one I have to turn in sometime between now and Monday, probably get that done friday.

 

[Vehemence]

Never. We don't get summers or other extended periods off.

Will finally be finished next June.

Last exam is May 7th. I start my internship May 19th. I finish August 20ish. I start school on August 25th.

I don't get to leave to go home until May 12th because I will be rowing at the Dad Vails regatta.

Just Intro to Micro.

Professor is hard as hell, I have a D in there right now I have A's and B's in all other classes so I'm mad. I think he curves the finals though because I have heard from people that they get a lot higher final grade than what they should have gotten. (from previous years)

Intro to Micro is easy. Don't be a wuss.

Memorize the formula, remember how to draw a graph, or make a table.

Three skills that will help you figure out how to a solve a problem that you would otherwise have no idea how to approach.

May 9th, last day of finals.
Then I get to waste 1500 goddamn dollars on a damn Jazz History class that will blow away 3 weeks of my life that I'll never get back. It satisfies a General Arts requirement and a US Cultures requirement at the same time, so it's kind of a good deal.
I really wish they could leave the fluff out of the degree, and let me get into that junk when I actually have a job that pays well. (I'm in college primarily for job training. If I was here for an "education," I'd probably study philosophy and theoretical physics. Not many jobs will pay you to just think about random things though, and I don't know what the pay of a theoretical physicist might be.)
I also took a Theater class to satisfy more GA requirements (6 credits needed). THAT was also a damn waste of time and money. It started to make me feel a little physically ill thinking about how much money each of those classes was costing me. It still does every time I think of how much college is costing.

My last class is May 2nd and my finals are the week of May 9th. So after all is said and done I should be moving out of my dorm around the 16th of May.

Go ahead and laugh, but it's ITT Tech.

I thought it was funny, who is doing his PHd in Engineering at Michigan, got a recruitment letter from ITT Tech.

My last final should be May 6th I think

 

[Suspicious-Teach8788]

Wow, all you guys on the semester system are insanely early. I don't get out till like the 19th and my graduation isn't till the 24th, and I thought I was early because the rest of the UCs are on the quarter system....

So wait do you guys start school extremely early in August or what? I don't get it.

 

[CraKaJaX]

Classes end this Friday. One final on Monday, two on Tues, one on Weds. Out of here immediately after that. (April 30th)

 

[QurazyQuisp]

My last final is on May 2nd. Classes end tomorrow. I have my first final today (Reggae, Rasta idologies).

This should be my easiest finals week yet. As far as Engineering goes I've found that finals week gets easier and easier... less emphasis on exams and more emphasis on semester long projects and so on. (Which I much prefer, I think it's idiotic that 40% of your semester grade can ride on 2 hours worth of work)

I started school August 27th-ish. Out for winter break around Dec. 10th, started back up Jan 9th or so.
