I am taking a final, right now actually. Open book, open notes, open computer. Its mostly about integrated rate laws for chemical reactions. Right after this I have a psychology final, and then I have an instrumental final on Tuesday. Any other college students out there feeling overburdened with finals?

Something interesting I read in my Physical chemistry book just now:

The half-life of a substance in a second-order reaction varies with its initial concentration. A practical consequence of this dependence is that species that decay by second-order reaction (which include some environmentally harmful substances like CFFs) may persist in low concentrations for long periods because their half-lives are long when their concentrations are low.

-Peter Atkins

I'm GIVING finals this week. That is even less fun.

Took my last one today. History of Science and Technology.

History of Literary theory and criticism was a beast. Wrote an awesome paper using Bakhtin's Dialogism to analyze Frank Herbert's Dune, though.

That actually sound kind of interesting. I loved Dune.

I have a 3 psychology exams coming up but I only need an E so go me

I'm trying to get my arse in gear now because people keep dragging me drinking (with me kicking and screaming naturally)

Just finished the last one (of four) today.

Mondays was on the respiratory, endocrine and gastro-intestinal systems
Tuesday was a practical exam
Thursday was on the respiratory, renal and musculoskeletal systems

That actually sound kind of interesting. I loved Dune.

But do you love Bakhtin?

Either way. You have been TG'd.

My finals are next week, so I'm spending a lot of time in my dorm writing term papers and studying, hence my increased amount of NSG activity.
Still, even I've never attempted to post on NSG while taking an exam, that's pretty . . . something; I'm not sure whether "hardcore" or "stupid" would be better way to complete that sentence.

Hey, we are allowed to use computers, and its not like I'm asking anyone to solve any of the problems for me. To be honest, the final is only 2 questions, and I've already done one of them.

not familiar with him, I'll have to wikipedia Bakhin later.

Nope. I finished finals on April 24th. :cool:

I feel for ya, though. You can pull it out, buddy. :fluffle:

I finish with them next week, on Wednesday. Wish me luck with the Katakana identification and written exam!:headbang:

I took midterms this week. Wacky schedule.

I have mine in two weeks.

I'm GIVING finals this week. That is even less fun.

You're a prof? Neat. What subject?
