Piccoli Fiori JMJ Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 I don't like tests.... Why do we even have to take them?
Piccoli Fiori JMJ Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 [quote name='Iacobus' date='Oct 12 2005, 08:47 PM']Because that is how we learn. HA! [right][snapback]756468[/snapback][/right] [/quote] Not really... we cram for the tests on many occasions and then forget almost everything later... I don't call that learning...
Brother Adam Posted October 13, 2005 Author Posted October 13, 2005 except when you have to prove that you know everything from about 20 different classes on one big final test. ahaha *twitches* 1 page dowwwwnnnn.....
dspen2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 i'm glad to see that others are sharing my suffering in going through midterm examinations. i had my first one this morning. another friday, then one tuesday and wednesday of next week.
photosynthesis Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 why on earth would they make you memorize quotes? college is about synthesizing information and creating something new with it. that's why they invented written language...so that we don't have to store all we know inside our meager little heads... although I really shouldn't be talking. my journalism prof is making us memorize the entire AP stylebook and we have a test on it next week...
Brother Adam Posted October 13, 2005 Author Posted October 13, 2005 oh, that's just the first part, once they are memorized we have to take them tomorrow and do exactly that - synthesize them into essays on various topics. Beautiful eh?
stargirl3:16 Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Midterms herald one thing... FALL BREAK!!!

Benedicite Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Tests and exams are stoopid... esp. when you do writing subjects hehe~ They fully don't show what you know, but how well you can vomit everything onto the page in the shortest possible time lol. *sigh* finals in 2 weeks...

littleflower+JMJ Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 dude one of my midterms was insane. i had so many open-ended questions, i dont think the most i've ever had to answer in one class exam it was cruel and unusual punishment you know when its time for mid-terms when you think of the grinding of the teeth verse from the bible when you walk into the library
Guest T-Bone Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Just finished writing my essay for philosophy. It's due in five hours. Wish me luck!

stargirl3:16 Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Yeah, I know... I thought of coming down there to visit my friends while I was on fall break, but I don't think it'll happen...
Brother Adam Posted October 13, 2005 Author Posted October 13, 2005 *completely wired in Mt Dew* But hey, one midterm over *eye twitches again* One to go! Then I'm going to crash the rest of the night. I was just asked to teach for three hours on Sunday too. lol. oh boy. hehe
StColette Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 You can do it, Adam!!!! Good Luck to Everyone on their midterms!!!!
Brother Adam Posted October 13, 2005 Author Posted October 13, 2005 A catechist must be a saint A catechist is called to a vocation Joshua took Canaan. Ruth is a light in the darkness of Judges All is taught in relation to Christ... some of the many things floating through my head.
