Good luck buddy. I had a business law class and now matter how much I studied I always got a B on every test. I could study for hours or not at all and could never break out of the B's.

Rant On/

WHY THE HELL CANT TEACHES GIVE A FREAKING EXAM THAT LOOKS LIKE THE F-ING TESTS THEY GAVE ALL DAMN YEAR

Rant off/

Basically, I needed a 50 on the damn thing to get a C in the class, lets HOPE I got lots of partial credit/got lucky, but holy ****, I just dont know. Lots of praying going on til that grade comes in.

If you even show up to class you should have been able to pull a 50. I only got 1 C in my life and it was in a class I skipped regularly. Don't sweat it!

Have a physics final tomorrow that the whole class is going to bomb, so Im not too worried about it, as he's going to have to curve it much like he did the last one, along with our final grades, as he cannot teach for crap. I have the day off friday (from exams anyway) and a calculus test Saturday, and then my last test, a History final, on monday. 1 down, 3 to go...

honestly I worked harder in HS then I ever did in College,

the reason college is easier is mostly cuz I can wake up when I want, take my time, do the stuff I need and I got plenty of TIME... HS = SUX

I just hate the whole institution of finals themselves. Its like, work your *** off all year for 4 classes, then at the end, you have a week to restudy a years worth of material for ALL of those classes, then take tests that can royally screw your grade that you worked your *** off for. Eh, oh well.
