In Full Swing
I can now totally see that this semester is in full force complete with a lot of homework, studying, and worries. I got three exams back today and I am not as pleased with the results. I did well on my Steels exam getting an 87% which with the curve is an A. I thought the exam was pretty tough but it was fair, covering just about everything that we went over so far in the class. My CRP exam that I got back was a little disappointing; I thought I did well on it last week but I guess I didn’t put exactly what they were looking for. I lost almost all of my points on a single page. It’s sometimes kind of unfair when it asks a subjective question on a short answer question and expects to get an objective answer. If you are looking for something specific in an answer, ask a more specific question. On my third exam I got back today, I was really disappointed. I thought I answered every question correctly after I finished the exam but I guess I didn’t quite understand a concept or two. I really didn’t have that much time to study before those two exams because I had an interview and many other things to do. I guess I really need to really sit down and figure out how I can do things better for the next exams coming up (I have three next week).
Even though I don’t have any exams this week, I know it is going to be a really crazy week, especially tonight. I have a company informational session tonight from 6-7:30 pm, I have to do laundry, I’m on duty, I have tons of homework to do, and I have to get emails out to employers and apply online. I have been putting a few of these things off for a little while and I really need to get them done tonight. I want to stay up really late tonight but I have an interview tomorrow at 8:30 am and I need to get prepared and sleep for that.
So, as I said earlier, I have a ton of stuff to do and not that much time to do it. I have a bunch of catching up to do since my earlier exams didn’t go as well as I’d like. I know now that we are in full swing of the semester since my stress and worry levels are through the roof. . .
