do you stress about finals?
considering highschool is so much easier than jr.high for me, i'm not stressing at all. i never stress over tests and such unless i don't know ANY of the info at all-which has only happened in geometry. we can decide whether we want to take the finals or not, but there's certain qualifications. (have to have an A and miss 2 or less days). some teachers make it required, though.


do you stress? how hard are finals for you?
when are your final dates? mine are the 18th/19th.

I had my last two today, one yesterday. Yesterday night and this morning I was stressing, but it was more before I'm a terrible procrastinator than because things were supposed to be hard. That and my grades going in range from unknown to pitiful. Am feeling pretty good now, though. Home tomorrow!

I'm usually like "Oh my gosh, I have my finals in two weeks" and a week later I'm like "Oh my gosh, I have my finals in a week." until it turns into "Oh my gosh, I have my finals tomorrow" and then I usually look over the stuff I don't know. I'm really good at procrastinating.

I hate finals so much. Exams stress me out because I tend to freeze up on them. pinch.gif Had one today and one more on Friday. I cannot wait until it is over.

I don't really care. They're not the end of the world. I don't stress over performances, why should I stress over an exam?

^ ooo That's when I get my finals.

Winter Break is starting late so I get off on the 21st until the 7th. We have about a week or so to study and prepare, and then it's off the finals.

Only when they're required. My school has final exemptions so if you were doing well during the semester, your break starts a week early. thumbsup.gif

The majority of my grade is based on final exams and midterms.

The optional final concept would be great to have. I'm only nervous if I have a low A in that class and the final is going to make or break it. Especially if that particular professor ambiguous when it comes to writing tests and reviewing for them.

And I believe it's bad to stress. Just calm down and take it is if it were a practice final.

eh, I'm not really that worried. I've done really well on the tests so far, so I'm just going to briefly go over some things to refresh my memory.

my religion exam (I go to a cathoic school) is going to be horrible though. daaaamn.

Yes I do. My exams are Next week tuesday, wednesday, and thursday (22,23,and 24)

Teachers are passing out their study guides this week...they're insanely large packets of everything you've learned the whole semester.

I stress because they're worth 20% and that could reallyy hurt my grade.

mine were yesterday and today.
i only stress about the weakest subjects (obviously)
a lot of unexpected outcomes though...i really suck at math but the math final was quite easy and i actually got a B on it. Chemistry was way harder than i thought.

Eh, I've never had finals before. I just took a lab one today and it was killer. I think that was the most stressful one I'm gonna take.

I am really stressed over all of my classes except for tennis. I'm pretty sure I can do the physical stuff well and know the rules by heart. I'm just afraid of everything else. I procrastinate too much. pinch.gif

Finals make me want to cry.
Energy drinks, sleepless nights, panic attacks, break downs, mass reading, desperation, and at the end a feeling of utter loss and profuse prayer.

Actually, that's usually the order my final "prep" goes in. XD!

I do stress about finals, but usually only the night before. Actually, I only start studying the night before or the day of the finals. I know it's a bad habit, but I'm so lazy. =_=" But yea I stress so much I can't even sleep at night, so I end up studying until I fall asleep. ^^;; I'm taking 5 classes this quarter, so I know I actually HAVE to be stressed a week in advance! jflkjadfdsf

Yo I finished calc back last winter quarter, so math was w/e to me. I would finish my GEs, but I don't want to overexert myself at the end and constantly take bio/chem classes, so I'm taking chem, bio, and other lower divs. A mix is better. But then again, taking all GEs... DAMN that must be easy! crazy.gif Classes are okay for me. Aside from having 2 midterms in 1 day, and two midterms tomorrow (fortunately one is a turn-in paper). ^^;;

You can ask Tommy but like I said I don't even think he knows me? I just saw him at the VSA meeting thing, but we didn't actually meet. But it's all good. All I'm saying is that you won't get the answer you want. lmao
