More exam stress...

Okay, my heart is racing, and I am sick of this. FUCK YOU WESTERN. Seriously. I don't know how you consider it to be "beneficial to your students" to have their exams crammed into a 48 hour period. Yea, best student experience at a research intensive university... I've had a great experience.. minus the last 24 hours when I've been pulling hair out of my head trying to get some form of studying done before my exams. I'm not crazy... I had an exam yesterday at 2pm, today at 7pm, and tomorrow at 2pm. So, my exam today ends at 10pm... when would you like me to study? I'm glad I'm a night person because otherwise that would leave me with, umm, tomorrow morning?

And sure, you will defend and say "I should have started studying two, three weeks ago". Hmm, maybe if we didn't have midterms as late as three weeks ago, 15-20 page papers due the last two weeks before exam starts, 3 hour presentations to do etc.

This is a joke, and you offer us... 1 STUDY DAY! Ooooooo, you give us one day off of class (this past Friday) and say, study day! Yea, thanks... but having one study day, then one Saturday to study doesn't neccesarily relieve learning 4 months of material that all has to be know for Sunday, Monday AND Tuesday.

Regardless, I am going to graduate, I will pass everything. But if I end with a 50% mark in my Tuesday class, I will have to stand by my comment... Fuck you Western.
