Finals - 05.07.2008, 05:23 PM

Just took my first (and hardest) today. Been putting in about 12-14 hour days studying for the past week, and have been studying not quite that hard for the week before that. I miss undergrad and studying the night before or morning of .

Wondering if anyone else is in the same hell I am?

Yep. Two presentations, one paper, and one final this week. one 15pg and one 10pg paper next week, and two more exams. On top of that I have normal business to attend to. And a company financial analysis to do tonight.

I was, but luckily I had my last final this past Monday. It's good and bad, because now I have to work all summer to pay for the fall tuition. What are you guys studying? My major is Electrical Engineering. I'm an undergraduate student, is it really that much harder when your a graduate student?

It was for me. I had a 3.5 as a biology major in undergrad partying 5 days a week and studying several hours for a test, to studying several weeks for a test (only one of my current classes though, the rest arent horrible) and struggling to get my grade. It's all worth it in the end though. When I get out, I'll be working 4 days/wk with salary around 110k

I thought about doing mechanical engineering. There was a decent program at the college I went to, but I had it in my head I wanted to be a pharmacist. If I'd only knew then what I know now.

I don't have finals for another month, but it won't be that bad for me. I will only have two, one in infinite series/sequences (math) and the other in electricity and magnetism (physics). At UCI we're on the quarter system, so this will be my third set of finals for the year.

My majors are mechanical and aerospace engineering, and I'm currently a first-year (although well into my sophomore year by credits).

Good luck guys! I did college for a few years for Mech Eng, but dropped that to buy a business. Seems to be paying off finally, but I regretted leaving college for the first few years! Women were easy to come by in college, not so much in the real world (I am sure being married does not help!).

Finals were rough for me too. I studied well into the night for the whole week. The projects were the hardest part for me though. Just got my grades for the semester four A's and an A-, but i'm in Economics (actually just walked). I am excited to finally get back to life and some real money.
