Stories of Senioritis

Stories of Senioritis So the four year roller coaster called Quest for a degree from MIT has come to a close. And of course, it wouldnt be blogworthy unless there was more of a story than that. So this semester I had just one ninety minute final, open book, open note final exam in cell biology. It wasnt even really a final exam because it only tested us on the new stuff and was equally weighted with the other exams. The final was last Thursday and the last day of classes was the Thursday before, so I had a week to study right? So what Ive learned is that you can only read a book so many times before you just cant read it anymore. And that is when my brain went to mush when I think Id attempted my fourth read of the sections that were going to be on the test. Cue Facebook. The best and worst invention given to man. Now imagine if I really had to study last week.
