This is friggin Bull$h1t. The test was given to me thursday and it was due today friday. Its TWENTY FIVE PAGES LONG of multivariable calculus questions. I worked on it from 7PM to 5AM with an hour break, and completed 12 pages. The teacher is nice, but idiotic when it comes to teaching and gaging work load. She's a 70 year old something lady who is teaching for the first time in my school. Haha, and she wrote on the test, that it should be completed in 1 to 2 hours. HAHAHAHAHA.

well, you didn't say which label this test deserved, so...we'll sut assume that you mean not-so-suckage for huge caluculus tests.

LOL ProMinx.

First time teachers really don't know what they are doing. They don't have the routine down and the experience of teaching classes before. Its sort of like a new student on the first day in a new school. haha

Its unfortunate that there are teachers who think piling on the problems is the way to learn. When I was taking dynamics the professor would give over 30 hw problems to do for each chapter. That was too damn much and even the head of the Physics/Engineering department thought so. :/

who here loves the UCs (or at least the important ones because Cal doesn't count because it's a freak school...) where we never have any midterms before lat october/early november? Heh heh, this is the one time that I enjoy our schedule.
