I can't wait for this semester to be over...

[Rajah]

I'm getting tired of walking out of class after a test with a POUNDING headache. We had our midterm today in my data structures class.

All I can say is pointers in C give me a headache!

The Prof saw which problem I was having difficulty with and kept going "but this should be easy!"

Easy? I was the second person done -- and I finished 1 minute before class was up! He extended the test by 5 minutes to give others a chance to finish.

On the plus side, though, he quickly flipped to the question I'd been pondering and fighting with and glanced over it and said it at least looked like I had the right idea and he thinks I got it right. So maybe it wasn't a wasted headache

I must say I can't remember having ever been as challenged in a class as I'm being in this one while still able to call the professor fair. Maybe not a very good lecturer, but fair in the questions he asks, what he expects out of the students, and how he grades. I also can't remember many classes where I can really show just how much I've learned and how far I've gotten in just a few weeks' time.

So, while I can't wait for the semester to be over with, I'm still changing degrees to the other program, and I absolutely hate programming in C, I'd have to say so far this semester is a success!

LOL, I'm not sure what to offer. I'm sorry your class is giving you headaches, but I'm glad that you have a challenging class that you are doing well in.

I can't wait for the YEAR to be over. Although you have a teacher who is fair in his grading, I have a chem teacher who doesn't specify how she will grade her tests. So you turn them in, thinking you did well, and then get them back, with points taken off for things she wanted that weren't specified in the directions. She makes class so unpleasant (her idea of teaching is screaming at us) that you are afraid to ask her anything.

I am so glad I am done with school.

We're like that with our psych prof. She doesn't teach anything! As a matter of fact, class has been canceled for 2.5 weeks. But we're still responsible for 4 chapters, 3 of which she isn't discussing at all. I just can't wait for her test on the 29th. When we ask a question we're told either we've passed that section..gee, I guess we can't let it sink in before asking something! Otherwise we're told to look up the answer. No reviews at all. I can see the relation of learning about the brain for Psych, but why learn about the eye and the ear??????
