Living fuck. Never take summer classes. EVER!

I doubt anyone has noticed, but I haven't posted here since last Tuesday or Wednesday.
Why, you might ask?
Fuckerface professors, thats why.
This summer I'm taking Calculus I and General Chemistry II. Calc I went down without a hitch, everything happened according to schedule (final stated 15 min early, but whatevs).
My chemistry prof ROYALLY fucked me and everyone else at the end of the semester. We were supposed to have 4 tests during the semester, and for the lab class we were supposed to do online quizzes, which he never activated. Luckly he told us no quizzes for lab. That was the only good thing I've heard since last Wednesday. Here is a list of some UBER shit he assigned(mostly online):
This was ALL assigned 7 days ago: 1. </ lab work> Write lab report for electrochem/galvanic cell lab 2. Finalize lab notebooks, turn in 3. Take lab exam by Friday at midnight (2.5 days notice).</ end lab work>
4. Take all of Module 3 quizzes (7 of them, 4 chapters). 5. Take Mod. 3 exam by (past)Saturday at Midnight. 6. Take final course exam tonight by midnight (which I did). 6. Take all Mod 4 quizzes (6 of them) by tomorrow night. 7. As of right now, take Mod 4 test (yes, after final) by tomorrow at 10am. AND! We have a fucking 5+ page research paper... that we've known about for a week max... due by tomorrow night. Mine's on neuroscience/neurotransmitters. Easy shit for me 
Unfortunately I've discovered adderall + energy drinks = my best friend/my heart's worst enemy.
Someone shoot me please?

After tomorrow night, it's all over and I'm buying a bottle of Johnnie Walker Black Label (thats all I can afford, fux off) and celebrating being done.
College sucks the life out of you sometimes Thats price you gotta pay for wanting an MD though.

I took an organic chem class this summer and it wasn't too bad. We actually had to do less work than in a regular semester. The main problem with it was having class every weekday starting at 7:30 am. I would have much rather been able to take it during a regular semester though because cramming that much material into 4 weeks was just too much too fast and I've already forgotten alot of the stuff.

Did you get a syllabus at the start of the semester with a class schedule for testing and quizzes? If so, this gives you a lot of power, if he screws you over grade wise.
When I was in school, I would always schedule one difficult class for the summer semester. With just one class, you have a lot of extra time (and nothing else to study for). With it being short, I didn't loose interest in the class. Being summer, there were very few people in the class, and most of them were people that had flunked the class once already.
I would never take more than one class during the summer and I would never take a lab based class over the summer.

Last summer i took:
Interpersonal communications, Marcoecomics, and Statistics all at the same time.
= 4.0
This summer i took: Intro to philosophy first half of the summer, and then some management class
= 4.0 for the Philosophy dunno yet for the management class. Still have 3 weeks left.
Your professor must suck. All the work was paced for us. I had to work like crazy though with 3 classes at the same time in the summer.
This summer my grades are slipping due to the sheer laziness of having 1 class.

If you think thats a tough courseload I'd discourage you from medical school.
Once you do post-graduate work you look back at college and wish it were that easy.

I wish I had taken summer courses this year, so I wouldn't have a third wheel semester.
I also advise to never change majors.

That's a lot of fucking work for one weeks time bro. Glad to hear you were able to get it all done.

He let a lot of it slide until the very last minute. I wrote my paper last night after I finished the last test. I emailed it to him at 8am this morning (when I finished). He had to turn in final grades at noon. I ended up with a B in the course. Not the A I was shooting for, but it works. Prof said the paper brought me up from a C to a B (10% of my grade!).
Not sure about Calculus yet, but I know it's at least a B, if not an A.
Thank god it's over. I've managed at most 4 hours of sleep per uh... 24 hours (days and nights have started to run together at this point) for the past week and a half. I'm going to stay up for the rest of the day then go get some whiskey, enjoy it, then pass the fuck out for a long time.

My bed is so soft and comfy, it's like 1000 pillows all up over the body, floating into the ocean while having on top of a crystalline water, deep but sparkling, that makes me dream so easy and remember most of them.

Sounds like a bad professor...
I took psychology as a summer course a few years back and aced it... However, the professor, she actually gave us advanced warning of what was going to be due and when...
