Well I just failed that exam

[SarcasticDwarf]

I prefer to wake up between 3 and 5am to study for an exam at 8am. Unfortunately my alarm never went off (or something-first time this has happened in years) and I woke up at 7. I'm pretty sure I got about a 35% on my stats exam. *sigh*


Now to study for my next exam in three hours.

*sigh* I wish. I took one look at the exam and knew I was doomed. I am not even sure I amswered any of the six questions right.

did you go to class at all before the exam?

Hmmm. Cramming FTL. No suprise there. Learn how to study...

Yup. I missed two classes, one from an appointment I could do nothing about (doctor appointment-the next one was 6+ months out).

Not really. I study different ways depending on the subject. For math, I study at the end of chapters and the day before/day of the exam. I tend to be a morning person so doing a big block of studying early in the morning is more productive than doing it a day or two before.

And people do hire on GPA if you don't have experience to back it up. Even if you do have experience, they still look at GPA most of the time.
