College Finals
Are you screwed this semester?
1
Time for finals everyone :)
Many of us are in school (University for our non N. American friends) and either took our finals, are taking our finals, or are about to take our finals. So at this point you should have a decent idea of what kind of grade you are going to make.
So any of you just SOL? Going to make an F and two D's? Is the Final your last hope of redemption?
I say we pull together, and post encouragements and reasons why we should buckle down and put in one last effort to go out with a bang!
I have provided a few motivationals for studying that you are free to use depending on what you feel is appropriate.
--- Reason 1 ----
You are a burden to society. Get off yo fat ass and study.
--- Reason 2 ----
Sorry I didn't mean that. You've probably put a lot of effort into this year and things just didn't work out. But come on! Do you want to be a failure!? You are better than this! I know you can do it, you're almost there! Just make sure to do everything you can to finish strong! I believe in you~!
--- Reason 3 ----
You disgust me. Seriously, I can't believe you waited till now to get this all done. What were you doing all year!? Playing halo and jacking off!? Man up damn it... just... come on man... for realz alright?
--- Reason 4 ----
This is nothing - you got this shit. I said you got this shit. Hell, you made it this far. Knock this baby out and go buy yourself something nice like a new car or a Brazilian model. Hell you know what? Get two models - you've earned it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So are you motivated? Ready to take the final? Got any advice for peoples?

Eh, I think I'll be okay as long as I study.
Got exams in Contemporary African Art, Art History II, Anthropology, and Buddhism.
Plus a ten-page paper for Af. Art, but I'm pretty confident it will go well.

I'll hopefully pass my last two finals. Only got one Linguistic exam and Academic Vocabulary left. Oh, and a literary analysis paper, but that's not a problem. I'm more worried about an exam I took like a month ago, and still haven't been told the results off. If I failed, which I most likely did, and fail the make-up exam that will be quite soon, then I fail my entire course, and that kinda sucks.

I've got 2 B's and an A so I should be ok. Just want to finish up and injoy my short span of freedom before I have to do it all over again.

My school is one of thous funny "art schools," we don't really do finales. However, I passed all my classes with flying colors, it went really well considering how poor my work ethic is. My writing skills have improved dramatically, it was a excellent trimester. Now I just need to take some art courses...

Despite abhorrent studying habits, I've always managed just fine in school- and even managed to be top-class in some areas.
But after highschool, I just lost interest. Well- never had much to begin with. Spent four years hopping in and out of different colleges and universities.
Which is a large part of why I'm a tradesman today. Never really aimed for much else, or even tried.
As such, be warned that the advice you're about to hear is coming from a big ol' hypocrite, but-
Buckle down, do your work, and pay attention in class. Smarts don't amount to much if you don't apply 'em.
When I look back and think of how much more I could have accomplished- well- it sure as hell don't make you feel like a champ.

Yes, yes .. i am totally screwed.
I will just do my best in final though it will be hard. Need to freeze my score until next year as well.

Well, i thought that persuasion which declare "burden to a society" gave me enough reason.
