2 finals next wednesday. 😱
 
Wow, if you guys don't like finals how are you going to handle dental school? As for myself I love finals week. Nothing like going on two hours of sleep and having to drink energy drinks just to stay awake. I love craming useless info that I'll never need to know. You guys are wierd.

Let me play devil's advocate here. 😎

Everything we are going to learn in dental school we will need to know. So it's not analagous to my Stats and Russian finals. Going to dental school is not about skimming by and cramming to only forget the material the next morning, and if you think your attitude will pass in dental school then you are the one in for the big surprise.

Dude, I really tried to make it as obvious as possible that I was being sarcastic. You really need to get your nose out of your books.Loser! Did you catch it that time? :idea: I'm pulling your leg! :laugh:
 
Sarcasm sucks online. Am I being sarcastic or not? You tell me.
 
I have one tomorrow and one on Monday and I will be done. I have been off from classes since Monday and have studied like 5 hours total in 4 days. I just can't make myself study for this useless $hit now. I mean Ecology, why in the hell am I taking that class in frist place.

I guess I learned my lesson. 😳 Good luck with your Stats and Russian finals. I have stats next semester, not looking forward to that! I know that all I need is a C but I know there is no way I'll be able to let myself not obsess over grades. I guess it's a blessing and a curse.
 
Well I had one today, and I am not sure if I pass!!!!!!!! Great feeling!!!!!
And funny thing is that I have not yet been accepted to any D school!!!! I am in great shape......... oh by the way I have one on Saturday too!!!
 
Saturday finals? ouch

I had 2 on monday. One at 9:00am and one at 7:00pm....not a fun day.
I have stats tomorrow @ 2:00 and I think that's the last exam period of the semester. Lucky me.....

by the way, i HATE HATE HATE stats....
 
Wow you are an engineer too!!! like me!!
Yup it sucks, Saturday, and it is my last final ever...I am done with undergrad
Now I just have to wait and see
Well good luck to you on your finals

Thanks. Stats isn't that bad, probably depends on your professor.

Ya, that's actually exactly what everyone has told me. I made sure I looked at the proffesor reviews before I signed up. 👍
 
i'm liking this thread!
 
Finals start next week for me... 😱

Today was the last day of classes, not only for this semester but for my entire undergraduate career~ 😀
 
You know what else I hate about finals? Waiting to find out how you did and what your final grade is. During the semester it usually takes the proffesor a week at most before they have the exams graded and back to you. But with finals they really take thier sweet a$$ time! At my school they don't have to post grades online untill the 28th! I check like every hour to see if any of them have posted grades and when they havn't I feel like ... +pissed+ (actually it dosen't really piss me off that bad, I just have been looking for an excuse to use that icon)

At my school the Grades are due within the 72 hours after the final exams are over but the last day of the exams I think is 23rd. My exams willl be over earlier but I wouldn't know my grade. It Sucks big time.
 
I wouldn't know my grade till January, because thats why my school posts it online. Not like it matters...as long as I get a C
 
Dont u guys love the feeling when you are finally done all your finals!? It feels like winning the lottery, even though I haven't done so before 😀 I got 5 finals in 6 days, botany,conservation biology, fungi, primatology, and vertebrate zoology! Can't wait! Good luck guys

I think you'll be surprised at just how much of that you end up doing. Not everything you're taught in dental school is important, a lot of what you aren't taught *is* important, and there's no shortage of memorize-regurgitate-purge-repeat happening either.
 
DONE!

I'm gonna go get sh*tfaced tonight

I agree. From what I have heard you still learn alot of information that will never directly relate to being a professional dentist. Plus the work load that we will have in D school will not allow for staying ahead of all the classes. Craming might just have to happen sometimes.

By the way I finished my last final on friday. 4.0 baby. And I have already been snow-boarding twice and plan to go three more time this week. Let it snow,let it snow,let it snow. :laugh: 👍 :laugh:

I also got my first 4.0 this semester taking 20 credit hours! I also went skiing yesterday for the first time this year. It sure is great to have a break!! 👍 😀
