Testing

Now while nothing really attracts the reader's attention quite like the title "Testing"; I thought it would be befitting considering the subject matter of such a blog. I was recently subject to a barrage of testing unlike any I have felt before. As previously mentioned, I didn't do well enough in school to pass out of any physics, chemistry, or math courses here so I am starting from the basics, and all of these classes just had to choose this week for all of their tests. I studied all weekend for my ECE test on monday, and I must say that I have never been so stressed out during a test. It wasn't too hard, but for some reason I just freaked out during the test. I totally whiffed the last question and got a B when I should have gotten an easy A. I have never studied so much for anything in my life, and it is just kind of disappointing that I would work so hard for a B. I studied ECE so much that weekend that I totally forgot about my other two tests on tuesday and wednesday. All of tuesday was spent studying for my Physics final since my physics is only half a semester long. I walked out of the test sure I had a 100. I ended up getting a scaled 92. I was starting to think that I just wasn't as good at testing as I thought. Then I took my calc midterm. I had zero time for studying. It was 8 am wednesday morning and I was pretty much expecting a fail. I was panicking before the test worrying about how it could really mess up my GPA. Then I took it. Owned it. Went home. Had a terrible wednesday (8am-5pm class), and I decided to write a blog commemorating the fact that I hate tests and the fact that I would have 3 in a row. Can't wait for my chem quiz, lab write-up, and essay about artificial intelligence tomorrow.
