I have a huge p chem final tomorrow that can potentially wreck this term's gpa, i'm talking about me possibly getting a 50 on this final or worse

wat makes it worse is that i also have a biochem final tomorrow which i also did not prepare for well...

i've had a few interviews and i have more coming up..will these grades matter

second question is should i even go to sleep or try to cram more stuff into my head
 
if you fail, then yeah it will matter.

cram all night. use the fear. THE FEAR.

well, at this point in your undergrad career, you should be pretty familiar on what studying techniques work for you.. but not wanting to be a douche, i'll suggest what i'll do.. depending on which test is first... focus on that class only.. try to get in 2-3 hrs of sleep at least.. you don't want to kill ur brain cells, lol.. you'll be needing them soon. then after that first test, focus on the other.. but then again.. not sure on the test schedule.. ionno what else to say.. just study and try your best!! and as long as u dont fail those classes and will still be able to graduate, you should be fine.. GOOD LUCK!
 
well p chem is first..

saddest thing is i've held A avg's the whole term but jsut didn;t study at all the past weekend

and i know that for example a B or two won;t hurt but if i don't get in....
 
At this point worrying about it won't do any good. You do or you die.


GET OFF THE COMPUTER. GO STUDY.

look, it sucks you didn't study for these tests during the weekend.. but now you have to face the consequences and work with what you have.. or how much time you've got, lol. and even if you don't ace these classes, it's NOT the end of the world! these are hard classes.. nobody is expecting you to be Rambo.. just do what you can because that's all you can do.. take a deep breathe and get focused.. and maybe get off SDN and study! 😛 and yes.. u can get into med school with B's =]
 
yah i'm tyrin to study at this pt i dunno i'm kinda not even looking at p chem just too much stuff there (over 1000 formulas over the span of 12 chapters... and like 6 or 7 hundred problems

lol this p chem test will be 4 hours long FML
 
don't sleep or sleep very little (like 20mins), strategize ur time and study on high-yield stuff. Honestly if you've been pulling off As up to now, u should be able to get at least a C in the finals and end up with ~B. B is a good grade, especially given ur circumstances...

Use lecture summaries, they'll all over the web and stop complaining on SDN!!! Get to work!!
 
guys thanks for the advice and uplifting talks throughout..i guess i just needed sdn to tell some1

anyways I'm off to bed gonna do some more p chem tomorrow morning

not to scare you, but i held an A average my whole term for chemistry 1. anyway i needed an 87 on todays final an im pretty sure i bombed it. im so pissed lol. p chem is a lot harder than gen chem 1, and you also have a biochem final the same day, and biochems pretty hard itself. even if you get a B in p chem that is impressive my chemistry teacher told me he only got a B- in pchem undergras.
