It was one of those finals where the professor calls out "5 minutes" and not a single person has finished... msot of the class actually laughed when he said that, cause there was no way anyone was actually going to finish.

I answered about 7 or 8 of 10 questions. It was a 2:20 long final, but the test was jsut too long. I hope he decides to grade on a curve... normally he doesn't.

I had a discrete math midterm that was like that last year. The professor called out that time was up and _no one_ moved. He had to say it a second and third time before a few people got up. It was brutal.

Data Structures and Algorithms Analysis. I'll know my grade in a week or two.

I'm sure you'll pass. I mean 7 out of 10 isn't bad considering you stated a lot of people were stilling working away.

That's an hour and 2 minutes! They had a right to get angry. ;)

It's a lot of work, but as long as you pay attention it's doable. There are some interesting things discussed in there, if you're interested in knowing how computers keep track of information :)

It's definitely not an easy class, though. Lots of coding, and if you thought that the linked list you did in the previous class was hard, you're going to be doing a LOT of studying in this class.
