So it's 2 AM on Friday morning.
I've got my orgo final in 7 hours.
That's right, my fucking ORGANIC CHEMISTRY FINAL.
*hyperventilates*
Despite having studied pretty much nonstop for the past 10 hours, I still don't feel 100% sure about all of this. I'm not TOO worried in terms of my grade, because even if I got only a respectable grade (say, C or C+) I could still pull a B+ in the class, which is phenomenal for organic chemistry, so. But nevertheless, I HATE going into tests without being completely conversant in the material, and right now I only feel about 75% certain of myself. I'm going to go to sleep now, wake up at 7:30, study a bit more, have breakfast (because that's IMPORTANT, yo) and then... take this beast.
I'd appreciate any positive vibes sent my way tomorrow morning at 9 AM Eastern!
*meep*

Date: 2006-12-15 01:42 pm (UTC)See, when the class started, our prof -- an old guy, but certified genius. He'd basically taught himself orgo -- told us to not worry about memorizing why things happened etc. Just memorize the formulas and that was all we needed to do. Seriously, I RECALL THIS CONVERSATION.
I tried it. I have to explain that I suck at memorization -- there's only one song that I know by heart, America the Beautiful, it took me forever to memorize any speech etc, and it's just something I can't do. Period. So of course, I failed and failed and failed plus had a few C's that kept from completely failing.
So, first semester final comes up. I know how I've been studying is kicking my ass and there's no hope of passing that way. But i've got an entire semester's worth of equations that I don't know. but I say to hell with it and decide to learn the HOW of as many as I can....somehow I manage to do a high enough score w/ the curve to pull a solid C in the course. The only C in my college career. Hell, I made a higher score in Calc III even though I'd flunked various calc classes in hs.
Needless to say, from then on I ignored what the guy said about how to study. I'm not that smart.
So you have my sympathy and thoughts today. Now go kick that test's ass for me.
