If l never, ever, ever, ever, have to take another exam again I'll be happy. I have sat through enough "this 4 hour exam is your entire semester grade" tests.

The last exam I sat through lasted 2.5 days and was pure stress.

Teachers who don't allow equation sheets on final exams should DIAF. I swear, I had to rederive half of the equations I used on the test because there are like 50 you need to memorize.. no I'm sorry I mean understand(sarcasm).

Cry me a river. I give a sheet of formulas for all my exams, and none of my students complain.:eek:

I have one tomorrow, a take-home due on Friday, and my last one on Saturday night. And then I'm going to get as trashed as possible until my flight home on Tuesday.

Graduate level linear algebra theory final tomorrow. I am scared.

Ouch. I struggled in that class. People really do not get just how much higher a level of difficulty it is compared to the undergraduate course (application/calculation, not theory). I feel your pain on that one...

To answer the OP, I am not taking finals per se, but giving them. High school Algebra and Geometry. I'm sure most of you can ace my finals though. ;) The fiancée is taking finals right now in law school, which seems about as pleasant as multiple root canals. Eek.

2 down one to go.
Finished:
Graduate level theoretical and applied mathematics (that final sucked hard. My 39/100 was one of the top grades in the class)
Model Based Estimation - very hard class but I'm kicking ass in it, pretty confident about my final. (this stuff)

To go:
Linear Systems. Pretty confident about this class.

Don't I know it. She is supposed to take it during summer of '10. Not looking forward to that AT ALL. At least by then we can get around to actually planning the wedding.
