Holy crap. Just took my Engineering Ethics midterm. Never written so fast. All my midterms have been 50 minutes, so I assumed the same was true of this one. The exam was essay-based, 10 questions (almost all of them had 3 or 4 parts). There was no way I was going to finish it in time. I got only about 2/3 done at the 50-min mark. Shit, I thought I’d just have to take a C or a D. Then I saw that the professor was just sitting in front, reading the paper, and no one was calling for the exams to be passed up. I suddenly realized that this was a 2-hr midterm not a 1-hr midterm. I finished the rest of the questions with FAR better handwriting than the rest of it. Have no idea how I did on the test. I don’t know how they grade in that class. We’ll see.

The 2 pages of notes I took into the CHEM20A final last quarter.

Work of Art.

My application to change majors to CS was rejected. Oh well.
Though I’d finished the two science classes they wanted, I only gave them one of the two only math classes they wanted (because I had to retake last quarter’s calc class) and only a 3.33 gpa in those classes when they were looking for a 3.5. 
Whatever.
This quarter’s good so far. Got an 88 on my MATH31B midterm1 and 100% on my first CS project, so hopefully the trend will continue through the quarter and I can swing the two A’s (calc and computer science) I need to change majors.
We’ll see.

Is spelled “The integral of e^x”.

“So much No.”

How one of my calculus TAs responded in the midterm review when a student asked if you could manipulate an equation in a particular way.
“So much No.”

I know this person fell asleep long before the chairs were set up around her, but I like to think that this is a performance art piece where the audience is about to enter to sit and watch her sleep.
