T-minus eight hours until my first test at La Follette. My first statistics exam is schedule tonight from 6:00-8:00 and I have no idea how it's going to turn out. I have been studying quite a bit but still can't get a reading on how I'll do. Some problems I am very confident, others not so much.
Our professor tried to reassure us the other day saying, "I don't expect people to do well on the exam. Just get your first 50 points and then the rest is gravy." Not the most comforting thing, but at least he tried.
Some people are stressing over the exam. I don't really know why. I've somewhat given up on absolutely freaking out about tests and other school work. It's simply not worth the trouble. It's not in the interest of professors to fail you out of the program. In the end, everything passes as it should and life goes on whether the assignment went well or poorly. Regardless of how the test goes, we're all heading out for celebratory/conciliatory drinks at the local watering hole afterward. Yippee!
