i woke up 5 minutes ago only to realize in a couple minutes i have a final math test... now i gotta skip it. i thought i was good at math but i fucked up towards the end, i hope i can retake the one I'm missing... anyone have any math related sites which might be able to help me out? I'm so frustrated right now. i cant believe that test slipped right under my nose.

Skipping finals is probably the worst idea you could ever have. If you're 100 positve you can make it up, then it's ok. Otherwise, go! A 50 is better than a 0.

You can't show up late? It shouldn't be a problem unless people have already finished-- or if your teacher's an asshole

Yeah, sounds like self handicapping to me. Just goto your final man, no one is gonna care if you're in your pjs and smell a bit funky from not showering this morning.

I know what he's saying. That's harsh, to sit there knowing that you have no chance in hell to pass. I like (for whatever its worth) to at least try to hide my shameful test in between other people handing them in.
On the other hand, nothing beats raping a test and finishing in like 10 minutes. Then I like to hand it in quickly.

I have my math final next week. Its been a roller-coaster ride. I was sure I was going to fail the class, because I had a 54 w/ an exam to go, and one I didnt take. But thanks to a VERY cool teacher, (see a post a few weeks ago), I had a chance to make up the one I missed AND scored an awesome grade on the last one.
Math to me is a confidence thing. Its the only class I consistently have problems with, so if I think I'll do bad, I will. I will study for days and forget the shit the minute the test gets in front of me. In any other class, I'd much rather take a test than write a paper.
I should do good though. Good feelings about the final.
