[color=66ff00]Had a medical electronics and imaging exam on monday. Didn't go so well, it was a good example of "Everything that I revised wasn't on it" scenario.

Oh well, I'll know better for next time.

wow.. I feel small around these big mathematical geniuses...
I've finished all my final exams

Web Security : Build a web server from scratch, make it secure, demonstrate security, make an FTP server on the same machine and demonstrate security.

Final Network Design : Novell eDirectory.  Build three servers running eDirectory.  Configure trees, containers, objects within those containers, partition strategy, replica strategy, merge the three trees together into a master tree, then all master trees merge into one giant supertree with DNS for web serving.

Accounting Information Systems 3100
Political Science 1100

All I can say is, I'm glad to still be on good academic standing.

It's great how programming gets taught pretty much the same no matter where you are...

AP EXAMS ARE OVER!!
Funny, I was going to start a topic just like this today. Anyway, the last two weeks have been no fun because of APs.

Last week:
Monday = English Language
Wednesday = Spanish Language
Thursday = English Literature
Friday = U.S. History

Today = Chemistry

And now I'm officially done until June, when I've got two final exams and three SAT 2s. Until then, I have two classes and five frees during the day... some days only one class. I'm gonna be bored out of my mind! :D

I find it funny how its "US. History" and not just History. Back when I was in high school, it was just History, which covered all topics.

Or did you select that particular topic?
Title: Good Luck to Everyone Doing Exams
Post by: MicroPsycho on May 10, 2005, 06:50:58 pm
My first exam is just over a month away, and I only have 2, History and Science
Title: Good Luck to Everyone Doing Exams
Post by: FireCrack on May 10, 2005, 07:11:54 pm
US history is a specific seperate topic

Well assuming he is going to a US University then most likely it is part of his core requirment since it looks like he is taking a bunch of basic courses.  Me on the other hand.

Last Week:  English 1302(Second Time Around)  Done with a B.
Spanish II:  Tomorrow.  :-(
Political Science, Texas State and Local Government:  Tomorrow.  :-(
History, World Civilization  II:  Done last Monday (And destroyed that Exam BTW)

Can't get a high school diploma in America without taking U.S. History. It's part of the requirements... at least at my school (and in my state, I believe). I'm not positive if it's a national requirement but I think it is.

NYS has a requirement of one year US history, one year Global history.

Because apparently all that's happened in the world can be crammed into the same amount of time as all that has happened in the US.

Same for me, but I still have to study 1600 lines of the Aeneid for Latin in a few days :rolleyes:

Chemistry wasn't too bad except for some of the free-response, some of it I just made stuff up.  Apparently some people in my class just drew pictures, so I suppose it could have been worse.

Yeah, I managed to screw up the formal charge bit somehow and a part of the lab question... but overall it was good.

Good luck with that Latin, I have a bunch of friends who're madly studying for it too... 2000 lines of Virgil? Not for me, thanks.

I bombed my Spanish exam.  I don't want to take it again for a third time.  :-(  I get A's and B's on all of the test and everything else in that class except for the midterm and the final.  The two that count the most.  I probably ended up with a C, but oh well.  As long as I'm done with it permantely.

I just finished my AP U.S. Government & Politics test. 60 multiple choice in 45 minutes, then 4 essays at 25 minutes a piece. It was a fun day.

Corsair: I took English Literature but not Language. What class do you take for that test?

Reminds me of a  French course i took a couple years back. I barely squealed out of the final on that... wasnt my dislike for it, it was probably my inability to predict what exact material to study that is relevant enough to be on the test.

got mine starting next week.
Can't understand foreigners learning french, btw, I don't see the use :p

Venom: Me neither.

Anyway, in three weeks, I get to do the exams the rest of my class did   over a month ago (long live the flue :doubt: ). That'll be Latin, Math, Chem. Physics (twice) and some stuff I repressed. I still ahve to read 5 books for Dutch literature. (Dutch, yes. Apparently, only anything written in the local mothertounge is literature.)
2 weeks after I failed those exams, I get to do the whole stress-your-arse-off thing again, this time for the end-of-year exams. Ugly, to say the least.

That, and I'm getting an exam on Seneca for Latin. Ugh, even I seem a happy optimistic hippie compared to that synical old bastard. I've never, ever heard someone complain as needlessly as he does.
At least the Aenid includes some murder, death and love affairs. Even Ovid's Metamorphosae was more interesting. (And the blood sprayed out, like out of a lead waterpipe struck by a hammer. (Vaguely paraphrased))
