You're going to have to give me a couple days to recover from the last 48ish hours. I think I've gotten like, 6 hours of sleep since I got up Sunday

Must not have been that difficult if it took you less than an hour to finish.

He let us start early, so it was more like right at an hour I'm also not the kind of person who's going to sit there and stare at a test just because I have 2.5 hours to take it though.

I've actually kept track of it for 1-2 years now, and I consistently do worse when I go back through a test and change a(n) answer(s). Turns out trusting your gut does work sometimes

From someone currently in the work force, I will gladly take your 2 finals weeks per year if I get most of December and the summer off. God I miss that.

This is something I've kind of thought about on and off for a while. I think it would be really beneficial for kids to start going to school year round from at least high school on. I feel like that would kind of prepare them for "real" life way better than what the schedules are now. It also seems like going year round could cut back on all of the retention losses you see from that long break.

I don't know, this probably just sounds like incoherent rambling

I'm Exercise Science/Pre-Physical Therapy. My finals this week were in Biomechanics yesterday and Exercise Physiology today.

Edit: Also a paycheck sounds wonderful, and those 3 more years of PT school seem worse and worse by the day. If I can even get in

That blows man, but I know what you mean. This is the worst time to get sick, but I've come down with something right around finals quite a few times thanks to the stress, lack of sleep, and poor diet running me down.

Make sure you're staying hydrated! You've got this

That's awful man. 2 finals in the same day is always rough, and having them grouped up like that is even worse.

Hopefully the one on Friday isn't at 7:30. I got one in that time slot last fall and it sucked. Not even for a hard class, just a final I had to sit around and wait for all day.

It is a harsh reality for that schooling. Good luck. I have a friends and a family member that are sharp people and did well in school, but could not get into a PT program.

It's pretty insane. With the aging population, there's a huge need for PTs too. I've worked in a clinic for 5ish years and it's way more busy now than it was when I started. I'm hoping my experience in a clinic will put me over the top, but we'll see.
