Freakin' lemming of a prof
This is the first teching job for my digital imaging teacher . And everything the other prof does, she wants to do also. At the beginning of the semester, she handed out an outline and said our final project was to create a "calendar of the future".
And now, the other digital imaging teacher wants his students to create a mixed media piece: Photoshopped images mounted on other media.
And so now, my teacher's like, "Oh, oh... me too, me too!" And so we have friggin' two weeks to come up with some big three-dimensional physical piece... stupid friggin...
On top of that, I gotta go to a musuem and draw three statues for my figure drawing class, and a flash animation for my advanced web design class.
Final blow... yes... they do.

I've been in the computer lab working on my HVAC design project for about the last 4 days straight. I have that final today. I have System Dynamics and Sensor Applications finals tomorrow.
So preach on brother, FINALS SUCK A$$!!

Ahhh, I'm on the homestretch here.. 3 finals down, 2 to go. 
circuits lab should be easy, and Java2 class will be so hard I may not be able to sleep through class and get an A on the exam this time..
hehe

Wow, I thought I had it bad, then I started reading some of you guys' exams. Only really heavy thing I've had to do was a design final in AutoCAD, mapping the local airport with obstruction lines and such. I guess Civil Eng is a bit easier than EE though =).
Good luck!
Good luck!

I know how you are feeling Cheston. . . I had my first EE test today, have another one Wednesday along with a Engineering Econ. exam and Calc. . . I hate studying. . . Spent 8 hours doing it for today's exam and still screwed up the final. . . Oh well. . . Everyone else looked confused.

frankly i'm impressed on how many EE/Engineering students we have on this forum. have u noticed the replies? most of yeall have engineering exams.
wow.
Maxima = engineers? heheh. i guess we're smart enough to pick the right car..
well i'm going over voltage Reflection coefficient and transmission lines..
who else is doing the same? hehe.

Exams start Friday for me and I haven't gotten myself to sit down and study yet =( I gotta start working on a final project for Biology tonight and then start studying for my Calculus final... ohhhhhh man I hate Calculus so bad. Of course, being a computer science major I only have to take like 4 MORE MATH CLASSES!!! ARGH!!!
Ahh well, I'll be crazier as friday approaches. lol.

Working on my final project
It's this object-oriented jungle simulation, in C++. Various critters (pink elephants, lemmings, sand sharks, etc.), a hunter, a George of the Jungle who periodically swings into trees, and two amazon women for George. (That last part really is part of the problem spec- I didn't make it up.) In addition to these critters fighting, they love to screw, making even more critters to keep track of. Argh...

Done...at last!
Six finals later, I emgerge barely alive and barely awake. Only kept awake by the Folgers aroma. My next journey will take me on an 11 and a half hour plane ride back home. Although I'm not an engineering student like most of you, my roommate is and he says it's tough. Man, I give you guys credit. To make things worse, my Organic Chem final was worth 60% of my grade....insane isn't it. I just wanted to wish you guys luck, and I'm there in the same boat! Take it easy and good luck!

Organic Chem is insane, I've seen many friends take it and fall by the wayside... out of 150 who start a class here maybe 30 pass on average.
I'll stick to engineering thank you very much =).

Organic Chem
Tell me about it. Even a friend of mine who is in the Honors 6 year Med program is struggling, and has to repeat it. It's a tough course. Too much to remember. Weasel, do you go to Univ of Florida? or just have the sticker?

I never thought organic chemistry was that bad. Maybe it's just easy here at Georgia Tech. What is bad is taking senior Chemical engineering classes. Took my Reactor design final yesterday, have plant design one tomorrow, and on thursday I have Statics. Too bad I hate the major and don't want to be a chemical engineer, oh well it's too late to change now.

Yup, sure do. Governor Jeb Bush has been kind enough to pay me to mooch off the educational system and do next to nothing. That was true a year ago, college is hard now...

Re: Organic Chem
O chem!? ai ya!
I'll stick to opamps and DSPs compared to NiO2 and gooey percipiates or what not.
and engrish! yuck!
well. i have two tests tomorrow,.. i guess i'll just hold my ankles and take it like a man.
*ahem*
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

Ok, what is the stupidist final you have ever had, in terms of what you were tested on vs. what you should know. I had a introduction to engineering class where every answer was between 1 and 10 and we just had to circle the correct answer. I don't know about you all, but this is something where I think technique is more important than a correct answer. BTW, this professor really sucks and I made sure to comment on this matter when it was review time.

Technical Writing. This is the worst class I've ever taken (twice)... I get above a 3.0 in all my engineering classes but Technical Writing just kills me. For those who don't know, Tech Writing is basically how to write instruction manuals and internal memos. Any emotion or slight grammar error = failure on your paper.
